Summary: So relaxing, took my autistic child and such a chilled retreat, the views through the glass windows, the tree in the centre, such thoughtful and stunning design. Watching the birds was relaxing, so quite, just a complete pleasure. definitely going back for a longer stay, we do these trips every six months to places within 2 hours from melbourne, this was only 30 minutes from home but felt like the country and from about 10 places we have stayed, we now wont stay anywhere else

Summary: Absolutely amazing! The location, the cleanliness and facilities, the host - everything! First, it was a retreat with character, history and welcome. Tranquil and serene, our stay was magical from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. The bird watching was entertaining, the trail walks and outdoor fire were peaceful, and the host was friendly, helpful and down for a chat. All in all, just what we needed!

Summary: Words will not do Blackwood Bush Retreat justice. We didn't realise the history of the property until meeting Aaron, and didn't expect to form an emotional bond with a place so quickly. From the incredible wildlife, the isolation from humanity, the luxury of the property (but not so luxurious you feel uncomfortable), the thoughtfulness of the host to the cosy and plush homestead, it's impossible not to immediately feel at ease. It's a truly incredible place and a testament to the human spirit. I couldn't recommend it any higher to people looking to immerse themselves in the great Australian bush and relax.

Summary: Our family stayed for three nights over Easter. It was a wet weekend which was a great excuse to stay indoors and bird watch. Floor to ceiling windows frame the hilly outlook and the landscaped pond attracts many birds to the native planting. We have multiple visits from crimson rosellas, galahs, grey shrikes and many tiny wren and honey eaters. There is seed to place out on the bird table too. The house is well designed with modern bathrooms and kitchen and the fireplace really cranks out the heat. We explored some of the property in between showers and heard wombats but they were tricky to spot! Aaron is a great host, relaxed and approachable with great tips and communication. We'd love to visit again.
