  • Hello, I was enquiring as to whether you allow late check-ins? I live over 1.5 hours away on the other side of Melbourne and will be coming straight from work and won't arrive until around 7:30-8pm. Is there any chance this would be okay? I previously noted that you maybe arranging self check ins.

    Hello, yes due to Covid regulations we are offering self check in at all our properties, so arrival time won't be an issue. Thank you, Valley Ranges Getaways.
