The kangaroos are still through the yard at dusk and there are joeys with them now. Half-out of the pouch, all leg, learning to be nervous about the wrong things.
Watch from the deck. Do not approach. Both parties prefer it that way.

The new Myrtle & Birch combined booking is the room for the weekend that would not otherwise fit anywhere. Five bedrooms, two bathrooms, one large open fireplace, a bath and a proper kitchen. Four acres of bush at the door and the door between the two houses open.
Sleeps ten. Weddings, milestone birthdays, siblings and their partners and their kids in the one place for once.
Direct booking through sun-kissed.com.au.

Spring in the Yarra Valley is when the vineyards start moving again. The pinot vines wake first. Yering Station, Rochford, Giant Steps in Healesville. The tasting rooms are still quiet in September, before the summer crowd arrives.
Thirty to forty minutes from the property. Book the tasting slot in advance. Long lunch, then home.

September evenings at the property split cleanly. Warm enough to sit outside for the last of the light with a glass of something. Cold enough that the fire still gets lit an hour later.
Both are good. Neither wastes the season.

Little Acorn is the twin-kings studio for two friends taking a break, or for a couple who like a bit of flexibility in the room. Ensuite done properly, kitchenette on the bench, armchairs pointed at the bush.
Spring is a good time to be in one of the small rooms. Windows open, birds close, nothing else asked of you.

Puffing Billy runs later into the afternoon as the days stretch out. The 3:30 pm from Belgrave gets you into Lakeside with the last of the sun still on the water, and back through Emerald in the golden hour.
We are Official Partner Accommodation. Eight minutes from the property to the station.

The first proper wildflowers are along the tracks now. Native clematis climbing the paperbarks, correa still in flower from winter, and the wattle from August finally starting to give up.
Four acres is enough space for the walk to change every day for a week.

Myrtle Loft sleeps six across three bedrooms. There is a queen on the mezzanine, a second queen on the ground floor, and a bunk room for children or a third couple who do not mind the arrangement.
There is also a deep bath, a large open fireplace, a proper kitchen and four acres of bush at the door. September evenings are still cold enough to warrant all three.
Direct booking through sun-kissed.com.au.

Alfred Nicholas Memorial Gardens are ten minutes from the property. September is the beginning of the good months for it. The azaleas move first, the rhododendrons follow, and the boathouse on the lake reflects both.
Go in the morning. The paths are quieter and the light through the canopy is better.

There is a bath in Myrtle Loft. Deep, cast iron, set against tile with candles on the shelf and a bottle of eucalyptus in the window.
Run it late. The room holds the heat, the forest is dark outside, and there is nothing else that needs to happen for the next hour.
