Fern Cottage - Romantic spa cottage in Mount Dandenong
Tucked away in the enchanting forests of Mount Dandenong—just 45 minutes from Melbourne’s CBD—Fern Falls Cottages offer the ultimate romantic retreat. A secret sanctuary surrounded by nature’s finest, Fern Cottage is designed exclusively for two lucky guests seeking a dreamy escape.
Step into your own storybook hideaway, complete with a plush four-poster queen bed, a crackling open fireplace, and a deep, indulgent spa bath—perfect for unwinding together. Wake to the sounds of birdsong and enjoy a complimentary continental breakfast hamper on your first morning, best savoured in the peaceful embrace of the surrounding forest.
The cottage is nestled among towering mountain ash trees, ancient ferns, and a kaleidoscope of seasonal blooms—camellias, rhododendrons, hydrangeas, and magnolias. The gardens, lovingly refreshed in 2024, are a magical wonderland that invite you to wander hand-in-hand, soaking in the beauty and serenity.
Fern Falls Cottages includes both Fern Cottage and Garden Cottage, superbly located just 1km from charming Olinda village, where you’ll find boutique shops, a bakery, bottle shop, supermarket, and delightful cafés and restaurants. SkyHigh Observatory is just a 10-minute drive away, and many of the region’s most beautiful wedding venues are close by—making Fern Cottage ideal for honeymoons, proposals, or simply celebrating love.
Let the forest embrace you. Let the romance begin.
