Our stay was for our anniversary, my birthday and Valentines day combined. What an amazing experience we had. First of all Emelia and Karen were amazing with our booking and directions as well as tips on where to dine. The atmosphere when we entered the cottage was awesome. Greeted by nature sounds and scents. Gorgeous hardwood floors and spotlessly clean rooms we could not have been happier. A huge four poster bed and double spa room was to die for. They truly have thought of everything and we have vowed to go back yearly. Highly recommended for couples.

We have stayed in many hotels around the world and I have never been negative about any of them. You get what you pay for and we always take that into account. This place however was a huge disappointment considering the price paid. We only booked it because of its proximity to a wedding we attended. When we arrived there were no staff, we had no idea how to access our room and there were keys that you had to know the code to before you could use them. We rang a number but was told she no longer managed the place,rang another number, which was not answered. There had been no communication to us via txt, email etc. When finally we were rung back we were told to go back to Sassafras to checkin. The checkin place was in a shipping container with no signage and we were asked to pay a bond. At this point we had half an hour to get to the wedding. Finally when in the tiny room in the house we noticed the glass shower in a corner of the room. Luckily the toilet had a tiny tiny room of its own. Even what should have been a lovely view was marred by what looked like a heap of rubbish! Even the so called breakfast was not on the premises but back in the town. Luckily that was good. We were told that the place had been sold and was in transition between owners . My advice to the new owners would be to sack the current management company and do it themselves or get someone better. We made the wedding just! Very disappointing!

We had a very enjoyable over nite stay in Forest Edge Cottage, which was a Free Upgrade from the Deluxe Spa Suite that we had booked. Everything had been thought of to make our stay as comfy as possible, even the fire was set ready to light when we arrived there. I thought it was a shame the fireplace was a bit smoky-it made the room smell of smoke (but maybe the wood was a bit damp) although it burnt quite well anyway. The bed was comfortable, plenty of hot water for the Spa and very Private bush type setting. We would recommend Merrow Cottages to anyone who needs a quiet getaway - it was Excellent !!

We ended up booking this last minute for the weekend and enjoyed our stay. It was comfortable and close to Sky High Mount Dandenong.

The room was not what you see on the photos on their website. Toiletries are to be reused by all people staying there (Not small bottles for single use). No heat control in room so we had to put up with the temperature they set it for. Had to park quite a distance from the room. Photos showed a open fire in the lounge but this was not in all cottages. The shower was in the same room as the bed. No privacy at all. Would not go back there to stay again. Would not recommend to our family or friends either.

For value for price, this little retreat tucked away in the mountains is so worth your while. I scoured the area for the best places near Mount Dandenong and the Yarra Valley, and this place offers value far and above everywhere else, and the cottages are so nice. We stayed in the Gateway Cottage, and it was amazingly charming and intimate. We loved the character of the cottage, and the fact that it had a double shower and a huge bathtub for two looking out into lush gardens was of course a perk. With the capacity to make a cooked breakfast along with freshly made bread in the morning made it even better. It was super cozy both for a summer or winter getaway, and it's a great launchpad near Olinda. The only downside with the cottages is that neither my wife or I had cell reception, and the cottages don't have Wifi (though the apartments in the main building do), but this might be right up your alley. Would definitely stay again.

Gotta say, first time we had booked into a B&B & being our 30th wedding anniversary, was not really sure what to expect, however having read other comments, sounded like the choice to opt for in going for a relaxing weekend away. Just need to totally commend May & Daniel for the absolutely homey feel - nothing left to chance - awesome enthusiastic characters, great conversations & listening to what they have set themselves out to achieve and are fullfilling their dream, we wish them many more visitors to experience their warmth, gracious hospitality & genuine country life style.

Beautiful cottage in a forest setting, would have been better and more ambient if fireplace was lit (not able to do so due to total fire ban). We were only informed of total fire ban when we got there (temp was in 20's). Spa was great!

Maj and her family are wonderful hosts. We got upgraded as the night we stayed at the cottages were not full. The property has lots of homeliness and personal charm.

Great B&B. Definitely going back at some stage. The bigger rooms are far better so spend the extra to really enjoy this one.
