Monthly Rentals in Howes Creek

We had a lovely relaxing stay at Fiona & Lar’s Merlewood. Our accommodation was spotless, & very cosy. The roomy cottage was surrounded by beautiful peaceful Australian countryside. Bed was incredibly comfortable and large. Nights were spent cooking a meal, followed by a spa one night, and movie. Mornings were enjoyed taking in the beautiful sun filled view from every room after opening the blinds. Followed by a walk up the back hill, a sit on the deck, a sight seeing by car to Alexandra for lunch at the large cafe there, and enjoyed hiring a kayak at Jerusalem Creek to paddle around Eildon weir. Another day we drove to Yarck and purchased some essential oiled natural skin products at DINDI. There was also Op shop visits in Alexandra & Yea where we found a couple of bargains. This is the perfect place for a couple to unwind, & take in the scenery & tranquility, and use as a base to explore the region. Thanks Fiona & Lars making this lovely stay possible.

We had a wonderful stay at the cabin. The surroundings are so peaceful and the view to the lake is stunning. It was fun to explore an area of Victoria we hadn’t been to and always looked forward to getting back to the cabin to unwind and relax.

Cannot describe how peaceful it felt to unplug and connect with nature at this property. Was not short of incredibly scenic views all around and sightings of wildlife. The accomodation itself was beautifully secluded and quiet and had everything we needed. Thank you for the experience!

We had a fantastic weekend off grid, and it was exactly what we needed! The accommodation was perfect, with everything we could ask for, including a comfortable bed. Waking up to the sounds of birds and sheep was absolutely magical. A huge thank you to Catherine for making our stay so lovely Lou & Johnny
