SkyHigh at Mount Dandenong is twenty-five minutes from the property. On a clear August afternoon the view runs from the CBD to Port Phillip Bay and then some. The maze is out there for children, the tearooms are proper, and the sunset is worth planning around.
Go late. Stay for the light.

The woodpile at the property is stacked under the eaves, dry, ready. Splitting kindling in the morning is a task that solves itself. The axe is where it should be, the block is level, and by the time the coffee is ready you have enough for two nights.
August in the Dandenongs still asks for a fire every evening. Nobody minds.

Little Acorn is the studio for two friends taking a few days off, or for a couple who like a bit of flexibility in the room. Two king singles that can be twins or a made-up king. Ensuite done properly. Kitchenette on the bench.
The armchairs face the bush. The kettle is close. Nothing more is required.
Direct booking through sun-kissed.com.au.

The Yarra Valley makes the best cool-climate wine in the country and August is when the tasting rooms are quiet enough to actually talk to the person pouring. Yering Station. Rochford. Giant Steps for chardonnay. Coldstream Hills if the pinot list is what you are after.
Thirty to forty minutes from the property. Empty cellar doors. A fire in most of them.

The wattle turns yellow before the rest of the bush has decided winter is over. Small, insistent, everywhere along the tracks around the property.
It is the first colour of the year. It arrives roughly on cue every August, which is one of the reliable things about this part of the Ranges.

Little Cherry is the quiet room for two. A queen bed against the window, an ensuite done properly, and armchairs pointed at the bush. The kettle is in reach, the toaster is on the bench, and the door does not open onto a hallway.
August in Little Cherry is one of the better ways to spend a weekend in the Dandenongs.

The AFL finals are close. If you are not the driving-back-to-Melbourne kind, the Emerald Country Club and the pub on the main street both put the games on. Fire lit in both places, a proper meal on the plate, ten minutes back to the villa afterwards.
Emerald handles a winter Saturday well.

The cloud comes down onto the property in August. Not fog. Cloud. It sits in the top third of the canopy, moves slowly through the gums, and lifts about ten in the morning. The birds accept it. The kangaroos ignore it.
For half an hour after first light, the four acres are entirely quiet.

Myrtle Loft sleeps six. Two levels, three bedrooms, one large open fireplace, four acres of bush at the door. Built for the kind of group that already gets along.
August is when the fire earns its keep. Nobody is going anywhere.
Direct booking through sun-kissed.com.au.
