A tiny space done really well.If you are out and about a great little gem. The steps down to the cabin from the carpark could be a bit of a hazard for some people the same off the small back deck. If you are sure footed no problem. Very reasonably priced and a little gem. ##### Lynne Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Barbara 25 Jan 2017 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Really nice position up in The Dandenongs. Very good, secluded position, so close to all the villages, gardens, lookouts, shops ... also so green and cool. Very easy drive down to the railway station if you wanted to go into the city by train. Everything we needed for a comfortable stay, but the glass windows / doors could do with a clean. Suggestion: a secure fly screen on the balcony door would be a great idea, as you could then leave it open ..... ##### Barbara ### 8/10 Good #### Nadine 10 Mar 2025 Liked: Room comfort, communication Disliked: Cleanliness very cozy and quiet great getaway for our Anniversary ##### Nadine Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### EDWARD 13 Nov 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication ##### EDWARD Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Liz 11 Dec 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication ##### Liz Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Elisa 27 Jun 2022 ##### Elisa Stayed 1 night in Jun 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nanette 24 May 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication #### Serenity in the forest Beautiful serene area.

Finding the cabin with the keypad took time because of the numbering 1 and 1a, 1a coming before the main residence No 1 (which has a keypad on the gate). It would help if the name of the cabin were tastefully displayed at the entrance. ##### David Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Adam 19 Mar 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Adam Stayed 1 night in Mar 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 3 Apr 2018 Liked: Cleanliness The accommodation was quaint and extremely clean. The location was difficult to locate as the main road had no signage. If you had GPS this probably wouldn't be an issue. Parking was a major problem as it was extremely tight. If you had a car smaller than a Commodore then this would not be an issue. If all you require is a comfy bed in a quiet area with no frills then this is the place for you. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2018 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Craig, Melbourne 11 Dec 2017 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Didn't stay. Can't say a lot as we didn't stay. It sure didn't meet any expectations, it's basically a shed with a bed and bathroom. My wife refused to stay here so we booked elsewhere. Not satisfied. ##### Craig Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2017 ### 8/10 Good #### Robyn, Melbourne 4 Jul 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Cosy cottage in the beautiful Dandenong Ranges Had a lovely weekend stay in the Charmed Cabin cottage, was lovely when I got there that the outside and inside lights were on (dimmed) and had lovely soft jazz music playing which I thought was pretty cool. Had a slight hiccup with me not being able to receive email they tried to send me to get door code & map (especially for where/how to park) from YRA staff who look after the accommodation - but the person was texting me (as communication is by text or email only) was helpful, patient (I don't know what your name is who I was communicating with but thanks for all your help) I love that it's private secluded and quiet as I really needed to get away to relax and unwind after a very hectic week - I felt very refreshed after my stay there and would highly recommend staying at Lotus Lodges. ##### Robyn Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2017 ### 4/10 Poor #### Jules, Melbourne 25 Jun 2017 Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Cottage in the dandenongs. It's very quaint but not worth the amount of money. Parking was difficult to get into and out of. Front door and lock is in need of repair. I fell down the steps into the kitchen. Very narrow little steps. The supporting beam in the middle of the lounge area needs to be painted in a brighter colour so you can see it and not walk into it. A few more blankets in the winter would be good. It was very cold at night. Overall, I felt the cottage was definitely overpriced. ##### Jules Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2017 ### 8/10 Good #### Sarah 13 Mar 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Pretty cottage hidden in the Dandenong ranges Pretty cottage hidden in the Dandenong ranges within walking distance of the majority of attractions, walking tracks, unique shops and cafes. ##### Sarah ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Pan Pacific Melbourne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Pan-Pacific-Melbourne.h2432787.Hotel-Information) > > [Great Southern Hotel Melbourne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Great-Southern-Hotel-Melbourne.h27851.Hotel-Information) > > [Thorverton Arms](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Exeter-Hotels-Thorverton-Arms.h2240597.Hotel-Information) > > [All-Inclusive Hotels in Bahamas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Bahamas-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d13-tAllInclusiveHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Comfort Apartments Royal Gardens](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Royal-Gardens.h425401.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Prince of Wales Theatre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Prince-Of-Wales-Theatre-Hotels.0-l6251250-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [The Waverley International Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-The-Waverley-International-Hotel.h3504259.Hotel-Information) > > [MOXY Hotels in Barcelona](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Barcelona-Hotels-MOXY.0-0-d179992--bMOXY.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Travelodge Hotel Melbourne Docklands](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Travelodge-Hotel-Melbourne-Docklands.h3033860.Hotel-Information) > > [The Baltic Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Liverpool-Hotels-The-Baltic-Hotel.h57826337.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Melbourne Southbank](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Mercure-Melbourne-Southbank.h898381.Hotel-Information) > > [Atlantis Hotel, Melbourne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Atlantis-Hotel.h864494.Hotel-Information) > > [Ovolo South Yarra](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Ovolo-South-Yarra.h63305062.Hotel-Information) > > [Carlton Lygon Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Carlton-Lygon-Lodge.h4790050.Hotel-Information) > > [Space Hotel - Hostel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Space-Hotel-Hostel.h2100092.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hyatt Melbourne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Grand-Hyatt-Melbourne.h23775.Hotel-Information) > > [London Croydon Aerodrome Hotel, BW Signature Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-London-Croydon-Aerodrome-Hotel.h891023.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Melbourne Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Melbourne-Airport.h12401.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson on Flagstaff Gardens Melbourne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Radisson-On-Flagstaff-Gardens-Melbourne.h82772.Hotel-Information) > > [Quincy Hotel Melbourne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Quincy-Hotel-Melbourne.h57242156.Hotel-Information) > > [Crowne Plaza Melbourne by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-Melbourne.h845390.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Edinburgh (EDI) to Inverness (INV)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/edi/inv/edinburgh-to-inverness) > > [Flights from Paisley (GLA) to Kos (KGS)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/gla/kgs/glasgow-to-kos) ### Activities > [Things to do in High Wycombe](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-High-Wycombe.d7772.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [United Arab Emirates Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/United-Arab-Emirates.d189.Holidays-City-Breaks) > > [Thompson Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Thompson.d3000419922.Holidays-City-Breaks) ### Holiday Rentals > [Swansea Holiday Rentals](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Swansea-Holiday-Rentals.d9958.Travel-Guide-HolidayRentals) ### General > [Visit Gloucester](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gloucester.dx7479) > > [Visit Morocco](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Morocco.dx122)
