Something Magical Neil & Rachel have created a gorgeous, relaxing, homely and magical boutique accommodation. The rooms were beautifully presented with everything you needed to be comfortable enough to relax at the Lodge, as well as perfectly placed to visit the many nearby wineries. It was a perfect place to celebrate and reconnect for our 20th Wedding Anniversary - Romantic, Fun & Relaxing.

Beautiful relaxing spot What a great little spot. We stayed in a hillside villa. Room was very nice, well maintained, clean and well equipped for a two night stay (including the little things like areoguard and flyspray). The continental breakfast was great as well, not like the couple of glad wrapped pieces of wonder white and the box of kellogs cereal with long life milk I've had at plenty of other B&Bs lol. Located centrally (easy driving distance) around a bunch of eating options and wineries, Rachel was very friendly, check-in and communications leading up to our stay were seamless. The pool was beautiful in the 35 degree day we stayed. We would definitely stay here again

Just beautiful! I can’t recommend Araluen highly enough! My partner and I stayed for a weekend as we had a wedding in Yarra Glen, and it was a very comfortable stay. The property is beautifully styled and maintained and it is clear a lot of love and thought have gone into the renovations. The hosts are wonderful and friendly and the breakfast supplied is generous and tasty. We will definitely be back!

Outstanding experience Beautiful surrounds. The lodge room was a wonderful surprise, much larger than expected with French doors opening onto the garden. The bathroom was large with fluffy towels and quality amenities. We didn’t have the breakfast hamper but would certainly do that next time we stay. Overall a wonderful stay.

Amazing weekend getaway We absolutely loved the villa, it was quiet, peaceful and pretty. There wasn’t anything that wasn’t thought of. Such a comfy bed and comfy pillows, beautiful and clean. We loved the bbq on the deck, the continental breakfast supplies were lovely and the fresh cob bread and biscuits were absolutely delicious! We will definitely be back such a beautiful two nights away thank you so much!
