Step back in time to the old world charm of the Edison Suite named after the inventor Thomas Edison.

The suite features mounted prints of the history of gramophones. Be pampered in this beautifully appointed luxury romantic spa suite with its superb decor, enjoy our country style cooked breakfasts and cosy log fire.

A perfect recipe for a relaxing stay in the beautiful Dandenong Ranges for those who just want to rest, or, for those feeling a little more energetic, use the side gate from the 2.5 acre property to access the beautiful Emerald Kallista Walking Track that follows Menzies Creek as it meanders through the Dandenong ranges. Enjoy the sights and sounds of the gentle stream and the abundant bird life as you walk through enchanting fern glades.

Enjoy romantic breakfasts and candlelit dinners in the privacy of your suite or on the veranda while serenaded by the sound of birds (including friendly kookaburras) and, every now and then, Puffing Billy’s steam engine and tooting whistle as he travels through Emerald.

Dame Nelli Melba lived the life of a fairy-tale prima donna.
