Enjoy this central Healesville location next to Queens Park, and the late checkout at 11. Ginkgo House is modern, very spacious with 3 bedrooms (queen beds), 3 bathrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, aircon, Netflix and a play area for children (must be over 8ys). The house is ideal for 3 couples or two families with ample space for privacy. Enjoy the views of the mountains through the large north facing windows and your breakfast on the terrace. Coffee, filtered water (by osmosis) and refreshments are included. Your weekend at Ginkgo House: You will enjoy walking along the creek to the main street for your morning coffee, followed by an exploration of the local shops. Visit Creswick Natural Fibres to buy an Australian-made amazingly warm and soft alpaca/cashmere/wool or possum garment that will become your favourite for years to come. Morning coffee and cake is best at Natures Cakes - healthy but decadent at the same time.

Lunch/dinner: There is a wide selection of wineries a short drive from the house. You can also book a winery tour (mini bus or limo?) - just depends on how much you want to fit into your day and how much wine you want to buy/drink. Alternatively, walk across the park from the house for a meal at Matilda Bay Brewery (try our locally made beer) or the Innocent Bystander (overlooking the creek). You can also pop into Four Pillars Gin Distillery for a tour and tasting to relax. You might fancy visiting Rochford winery that also offers live music on weekends. Head back to Ginkgo House - relax for the evening with a good movie or a bath, and get ready for a new day. More wineries, the Healesville Sanctuary and a visit to TarraWarra Museum of Art/Restaurant/CellarDoor or the recently opened St Huberts restaurant and art gallery. If you love hiking and a thrill, walk to the top of Mount Riddel or take a hot air balloon ride for an unforgettable Yarra Valley view. If you are visiting with children, you will enjoy the Healesville Sanctuary, the Chocolaterie, Rayners Orchard, Warburton Water Park, Cherryhill Orchard (in cherry season) and walk/picnic at the Marroondah Reservoir Park.
