Views on Montpellier

Wake up to breathtaking mountain views at this peaceful retreat, located just a 1-hour drive from Melbourne in the charming town of Healesville — the gateway to the world-famous Yarra Valley wine region. Sip a glass of wine or savour a hearty meal at one of the region’s cosy vineyards, all just a short drive away. If you're in the mood for relaxation, head over to the Heritage Golf and Country Club, just five minutes away, where you can unwind with a round of golf while the kids enjoy fun activities designed just for them. Prefer a slower pace during the cooler months? Take a leisurely stroll into town, where quaint boutiques and delightful eateries offer a taste of the local charm.

Family-Friendly Adventures
Spend a day at the Healesville Sanctuary, home to Australia’s iconic native wildlife — don’t miss the bird show, it’s a hit with kids and adults alike!
Indulge in a treat at the Yarra Valley Chocolaterie & Ice Creamery: enjoy a steaming hot chocolate while the kids marvel at chocolate being made (and pick up a few sweet souvenirs to take home).
Next, hop aboard the historic locomotive for a 30-minute return ride through picturesque countryside. After your journey, let the little ones burn off energy at the nearby playground or enjoy a family picnic in the open green spaces.
If you're up for more adventure, explore the scenic walking trails at the Maroondah Dam, where there's plenty to see for both nature lovers and curious young explorers.
