About this property
Red Box Retreat - Yackandandah
Situated privately on 10 acres just outside the charming and eclectic village of Yackandandah, Red Box Retreat is a stylish contemporary guesthouse catering for up to 6 guests.
Just moments from Yackandandah, or 20 minutes from Beechworth, the Retreat provides the perfect base from which to explore the best of Victoria's North East. Alternatively, stay and relax with a swim in the private pool, drink in the sunset views from the deck, or lounge in front of the wood fire.
Featuring a King, Queen and twin-single bedrooms, Red Box Retreat caters equally well for families, couples or groups of adults.
Inside there are 2 living spaces, a modern fully-equipped kitchen, 2 bathrooms, laundry, air conditioning and wood fireplace. Outside the retreat boasts it's own private solar-heated swimming pool, expansive lawns and gardens, outdoor dining table, gas BBQ and undercover parking.
Red Box Retreat is located on our 10 acre property, which is also comprised of several paddocks, a few quite a few sheds as well as our main house. Depending on when you stay, we may have sheep, cows and alpacas on the property, as well as chickens and perhaps if you're lucky the odd lamb or calf.
Our main house is far enough away from the retreat to ensure your privacy, but close enough that we're always available should you need anything during your stay.

My family of 5 stayed for 5 relaxing nights. We had a wonderful stay, the house was great and the pool was a highlight for my boys. We enjoyed looking out at the cows, sheep and llamas in the paddock.
Such a beautiful place. Me and the family had a fabulous time. Thanks so much for having us

Beautiful house overlooking the farm. Can't begin to say how nice it was to not hear traffic at night. Even in the summer we didn't need the A/C as we were able to have the sliding doors open at night and stay cool, thanks to the screens. Pool was great and an easy drive to the towns surrounding. Thanks for having us Dan!
We loved our 3 night stay at Red Box Retreat. The master suite is comfortable, with lovely views. The bed is comfy and the linen was very nice. The kitchen is easy to cook in and well stocked with pots and pans, plates and everything you need to cook up a storm. The property is private and a little oasis. We have stayed in Yack many times, but this is our first time at Red Box Retreat - and we hope to come back! Highly recommended.
Superb accommodation situated on a beautifully landscaped property with gorgeous mountain views. After a day of enjoying the many nearby attractions, it was an absolute delight to have a relaxing dip in the solar-heated pool. The owner could not have been more helpful and obliging, and we would not hesitate to recommend this exquisite property to anyone contemplating a stay in this picturesque part of Victoria.
Beautiful property, so comfortable with everything you need. Light filled rooms with fabulous views of the surrounding hills. Garden and surrounds were magnificent and pool was lovely to swim in as it was warm.Beds comfortable. Location just out of town but the property was so peaceful and calming. We would highly recommend staying here.
We spent a thoroughly enjoyable Easter here with friends. Everyone loved the wonderful views, the animals and the pool. Dan was a great help with the caravan. It is also a great base from which to explore.
The house was perfect!! Super clean and everything was brand new ! The location was very close to the town center.
Everything was perfect!
Very very impressed can’t wait to book my next holiday here.
Lovely house, pool and surrounds. The warm swimming pool was the highlight. Stunning views and lovely hosts. We’ll be back! Thanks for having us. Jess and Lucy
Well appointed and considered accommodation with a great rural outlook while being close to Yack. The bike mini bar was a great touch. Importantly, the cleanliness was outstanding. Thanks Felicity and Dan.
The Red Box Retreat is a wonderful place to stay for a couple of days. The views are amazing, the fireplace (and heaters) keep the place super warm over the cold winter nights, the kitchen is well stocked with cooking utensils, the beds are super comfortable and the owner is Dan is really accomodating. Highly recommended!
