Heavenly Escape: simply, a lovely getaway

"Absolutely exceptional, stylish, superbly located, quiet. Best Airbnb I’ve ever had the pleasure to visit" (review).

Secluded, tranquil, fully self-contained, modern & comfortable, Escape is an award winning, creative, studio-style couples retreat nestled in native bush. Enjoy the spa, cosy wood-fire, tree-surrounded raised deck (my favourite), fully appointed kitchen, a backdrop of the spectacular Grampians & walking distance to Halls Gap.

MORE DETAIL: Yes, 'Escape' is a secluded we have a double block nestled amid the trees giving it a very private feel. Please read our guest reviews - better to hear what they say than have us talk too much ourselves. But suffice to say, our reviews are a delight to us and out of respect for guests, we keep our prices competitive.

About the house: it is modern and quite luxurious, with many more personal creative touches. There is cast iron wood fireplace, a well stocked woodshed, a deluxe luxury spa bath for two, a split system aircon / heater, a raised balcony amid the trees which is one of my personal favourite elements of the house, views of the trees out of every window, a coffee / expresso / latte / cappuccino machine so you can have a decent coffee 'at home' without having to go out and buy one, a fully appointed kitchen with 4 burner electric stove, microwave, kettle BBQ, toastie maker, toaster, kettle, fridge and freezer and a full array of pots, pans, crockery, and cutlery and cooking utensils.

Native wild and bird life abounds - kangaroos, an occasional emu or wallaby, cockatoos, kookaburras, rosellas, all frequent the property and I have planted a number of trees amid the native gums (banksias, grevillias, blossoming gums) which, when they grow, will attract a host of the smaller native birds.

The property is secluded and the house is set in the middle of one of the few remaining double bush blocks in the area. Escape enjoys its own driveway and parking area and very much does feel like an 'Escape'.

Please contact Tim regarding any of the following
* discounts for stays of 7 days or more.
* one night stays.

Beautiful Spot
Heavenly Escape comes as advertised! Lodgings are spacious, clean, delightfully decored, wonderfully positioned and the hot tub is the perfect size for 2! Timothy was great to deal with, the information was clear and comprehensive. We'd definitely stay her again when in the Grampians!

Wonderful open plan with windows looking onto a woodland property. Great location for accessing the Grampians hiking trails. Comfortable and spacious. Nice front deck for kangaroos to hop past!

Our stay here was so amazing little piece of heaven, though the photos made it look a little more isolated than what it is, it doesn’t impact the privacy! Couldn’t really hear anyone else besides them arriving. Was such a great escape would definitely recommend.

This cabin in the woods is perfect. Very special experience. Spacious. Beautifully decorated. Homely. Quiet. Surrouned by nature, kangaroos, birds. Kookaburra's chat each morning in trees nearby. Easy fireplace. Plus split system heater, cooler. Big clean windows with lovely views of nature, the moutain you feel you can almost touch. Spacious bathroom. Clean. A personal touch of a bottle of Shiraz 2 glasses on the table on arrival. We could feel the love of our host Tim through the attention to detail. We LOVED it all so much, we are going back for NYE in a month's time. Cafes fantastic, great coffee, yummy food, such friendly community. You MUST experience the serenity and beauty for yourselves. So relaxing. Balcony deck with chairs lounge chair so you're emerged in nature. Its SO special. Thank you Tim, you are the perfect host. Excellent email communication and tour guide extras. This is truly magical. Please enjoy it as much as we did. We have stunning memories we will always treasure. Much love gratitude to you Tim and our special holiday immersion in nature. xx

Fantastic Getaway. So Peaceful. Look forward to returning again in the near future.
Very Neat and Tidy. We loved the art work on the walls, and of coarse, the wildlife were a pleasant attraction. The woodfire was so nice to cuddle up to at night when it was cold. And to top it off the Spa was an extra bonus. Would love to come back again. 10/10. Thankyou so much Tim, We both needed this getaway.

Glorious!
A beautiful spot away from the hustle and bustle of Halls Gap while still within a walkable distance — it’s a bit of a walk— to restaurants, shops, trails etc. Equipped as described. Feels like you are up in a tree house; just glorious to enjoy a cuppa on the verandah on a sunny morning watching wildlife and taking in the views.

Nothing short of comfort. It had everything and the feeling of isolation so therapeutic. Surrounded by nature, it felt so hidden away!

Great relaxing stay - just what I needed
Heavenly Escape is a great property to get away from it all. Tim was very easy and fantastic to deal with. The property itself is fairly open plan with everything you need. It has a great back deck to sip a glass of wine and watch the birds fly by. It's also cosy on the inside for when the weather got cooler - the fireplace worked a treat. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and will definitely try and come back again.
