Stayed 2 nights at the Gatehouse Cottage. Overall a lovely place to stay. Loved the open fire, the spa bath and the free breakfast. However we had no wifi during our stay. We contacted reception several times regarding this and they were quite helpful and did try to fix the problem but without success. We also thought that the cottage was very open to the road, no fencing around it, meaning anyone could just walk up to the back door. We heard weird noises at around 1am on the first night, so just felt a little unsafe. We also would have liked if there were curtains/blinds in the kitchen and at the front door
Although the gatehouse cottage is little, its is so cosy. That century old feel with a mix of modern technology and building creates an amazing feel. Recommend going in winter as there is no aircon but plenty of heating facilities. Lovely spa!!

Location first class. Somebody needs to clean it, loads of cobwebs. Brochures out off date by a couple of years. No aircon for 39 degree day.

Hello Phil, thank you for taking time to make a review.
We do not offer airconditioning at any of the Moulton Park Cottages yet. This is an owner decision which is very difficult in summer for our guests. Maybe next time.
We will attend to the issues you raised with our staff and we hope you will return to stay, perhaps in winter which we are well prepared for!
Best wishes, Peta
It was truly the perfect cottage for a wonderfully relaxing weekend away. Cosy feel and still with plenty of space - it has a full kitchen, even a dining room and an awesome open fire! Location is peaceful and still close to everywhere. Plus the little extra touches to the cottage topped it off perfectly - breakfast box, chocolates by the bedside, fluffy towels and heated towel rails. Would definitely recommend a visit...
Great getaway from the city but not actually a long drive from Melbourne. It is quite secluded and peaceful. The gardens are well kept and make for a beautiful view to enjoy.
Had a lovely , relaxing time. Everything was thought of to make our stay as romantic as possible. The whole village had a lovely feel and we had a much needed break and de-stress ! The open fire place was beautiful with the fire lasting most of the night. How nice it was to fall asleep with a fire crackling !!! Recommend to those who just want to get away from the hub bub of life !!
We had a wonderful weekend. Minimal contact with staff and other visitors helped make it so. The cottage was beautifully laid out and prepared for our visit. The spa jets needed maintenance but that was a minor issue. I would recommend it to all looking for a romantic getaway.
We were very comfortable in the cottage. Loved the special touches, soft music and the fireplace. The fridge with breakfast goodies was a pleasant surprise. We didn't have to worry about finding a place to eat. Thank you Carol for suggesting The Pig and Whistle for dinner.
Stayed there 2 nights, and it was perfect in all ways! Very clean, very tidy, everything was organized for us by owner from champagne, to delicious local fruits. Weather was cold, however this little cottage could be heated in every way possible. Definitely coming again!
Beautiful room, really clean and welcoming - the fire was set up and music was playing as we arrived. The staff were also a joy to communicate with and were flexible and inviting trying to organise our stay.
Our stay at this cottage was absolutely perfect. All the little touches made it completely worth while. I can't wait to have another holiday there. :) I would recommend this to everyone wanting a lovely and quiet getaway. :) Thanks again Carol, we'll be seeing you soon.
Lovely 2 night stay in a peaceful quiet cottage in the Dandenongs. Great breakfast goodies waiting to cook up and nice touches around the cottage. Fantastic spa and lovely outlook.

Will definately be back and won't hesitate to recommend to family and friends
A great place to unwind and enjoy the serenity. Very comfortable and gave us the relaxatirelaxation we needed. The open fire on a cold night is the finishing touch to a romantic evening with a loved one. The food basket left by the staff takes the hassell away and gives you that home cooked feeling you enjoy
