As well as the cabin, we offer a camping area to larger groups that need overflow accommodation if the cabin is not big enough. This makes Hidden Valley House a fantastic option for large groups wanting to have all the comfort and amenities of the cabin, but experience the back-to-basic joy of camping in nature. Set on an 18-acre property at the start of the Brisbane National Ranges, it is home to koalas, kangaroos, echidnas, sugar gliders and an abundance of birds including eagles and kookaburras. Furthermore, the land is protected by Trust for Nature and Land for Wildlife offering long-term protection for many ecosystems, species and native wildlife. The property is surrounded by national parks and is only a short drive from charming, historical towns such as Meredith and Steiglitz and only 25mins to Geelong.

Cabins near Geelong guide

Overview

About an hour's drive southwest of Melbourne, overlooking the waters of Port Phillip, Geelong—Victoria's second-largest city—makes a fantastic, and only slightly slower-paced alternative to Melbourne. As Geelong is very much an urban destination, most of the accommodation options in the city come in the form of holiday homes, but you won't have to venture far to experience the tranquility of a cabin stay. There are plenty of cabin rentals and vacation rentals just a short drive from the heart of the city, some out in the bush with off-grid queen-sized beds and patio hot tubs, while others offer modern luxuries like wifi and wood-burning stoves, plus views out over the water.
