At Woodlands Rainforest Retreat we provide a rare combination of genuine privacy, indulgent luxury and nature based experience in a secluded temperate rainforest setting.

The four architect designed self contained bungalows are situated in rainforest remnant on 16 hectares of native forest, overlooking the fern gullies of Hermitage Creek near the tiny hamlet of Narbethong.  Just over the Black Spur, 80 km NE of Melbourne, Woodlands is beautifully positioned on the edge of Victoria's famous Yarra Valley and is just 30 minutes drive from the cross country ski trails of Lake Mountain and the boating and fishing waterways of Lake Eildon, Victoria's second largest body of water.

Woodlands Rainforest Retreat
has been designed and built to exceed your expectations.


Welcome to Woodlands Rainforest Retreat
Each bungalow is hidden in its own separate enclave within the rainforest, offering complete seclusion, both from each other and the outside world.  They are completely out of sight, overlooking beautiful fern gullies and a private bushland lake, with the sound of the babbling Hermitage Creek in the background.  

There are no neighbours - only the wildlife, including riotous parrots and cockatoos, kookaburras, wombats, wallabies, echidnas and platypus (if you look and listen very carefully).   You can enjoy a unique part of Australia, a temperate rainforest  with native flora and fauna featuring magnificent wildlife.  

Hidden in the spectacular rainforest of the Black Spur, in the mountains on the edge of Victoria's famous Yarra Valley, is one of Australia's leading boutique accommodation retreats and the ultimate secret hideaway for couples.   
"We love this haven you have created.  We heard and saw real wildlife from this "Cockatoos Nest".  Wombats grunting, possums growling and who knows what scurrying and rustling! but us safe in this luxurious cabin in the wilderness"
