    “We truly appreciated the host’s warm hospitality and will certainly return. The location is ideal—conveniently close to shops yet peaceful enough to enjoy the sound of birds from the deck. The Blackwood is exceptionally well-designed. We love all...”

Exclusive accommodation. The Blackwood - A luxury mountain hideaway in the picturesque township of Sassafras in  Melbourne's Dandenong Ranges. Situated in the heart of the Sassafras village, yet hidden in a private location overlooking the Sassafras Creek Gully, The Blackwood is a haven from city life. This elegant one bedroom villa combines a superb, classically designed interior with state of the art technology. The Blackwood is the ultimate getaway experience, with a stunning list of features, including ipad driven music system, surround sound, deep luxurious spa, luscious king size bed, exquisite toiletries.  Designed by Justin Bishop Interiors, this is a property for just two special people.     Of course there is a kitchenette, huge TV,gas log fire, Nespresso coffee.  Cooked breakfast from a local cafe can be delivered for an additional charge.
We love the tall trees - the fresh mountain air - the views of Melbourne city lights at night from SkyHigh Mt Dandenong. We love exploring the interesting shops and Cafes, like Propserpina Bakehouse, one of our favourites. Our most special joy though is the nature, bird song, wild life we see from day to day - we never want to leave!
Sassafras, Olinda and Mt Dandenong are the 3 beautiful and ecclectic villages in the Dandenongs. There are 5 Public Gardens, thousands of acres of national parks, cafes, 1000 steps to climb if you wish. Or, maybe you'll just choose to lounge about and enjoy a massage, a little gentle exploring of shops .There's as much or as little to do as you wish. A walk to Olinda or a walk through the forest in Sherbrooke, or a drive to the Yarra Valley wonderful wineries will be a beautiful day out. You will, however, come running home to curl up by the fire in the winter! Coffee at Ripe in Sassafras. Great hot breakfast for you at Dine Divine or Ripe. Traditional English tearoom at Miss Marples, but the highlight is a High Tea at Fortnums in Sassafras. We love King Henry's Sassafras , Citrine Bistro & Bar in Olinda or Dudleys in Olinda for the best pizza and casual dining.
