Athlone Country Cottages

Arrive at Athlone Country Cottages and be met with home made chocolate cake, beverages and the peaceful surroundings of the rolling hills. Mornings are a real treat with country style breakfasts provided during your stay.

Only an hour and a half from Melbourne, 5 minutes drive from Alexandra, and just down the road from Lake Eildon National Park.

Our romantic cottages are secluded and separate, so peace and privacy abound. The two 2 bedroom cottages accommodate 4 guests comfortably in either king-size or single beds. A spacious living area with a kitchen equipped to allow you to cater as little or as much as you choose. Cosy and warm in winter, cool and peaceful in summer, just ideal!

The cottages are surrounded by glorious rolling hills and overlook large well stocked dams with fly fishing opportunities to make fly fishermen weak at the knees

You can BBQ your evening meal, or choose from the range of local eateries which stretch from good country pub fare to a meal fit to celebrate a special occasion. All within a short drive. Or let us take the worry out of catering by providing you with a meal on your arrival, and wonderful local produce to keep you well stocked during your stay

The Studio, our brand new one bedroom cottage is ideally suited to those couples seeking the perfect weekend escape. Totally self contained with a full kitchen, BBQ, TV/DVD, it provides the sort of luxurious country accommodation that will make your weekend break seem to last forever.

Be cosy and warm by the fire, relax and listen to music while you read the latest magazines, or just sip wine and enjoy the view over the rolling valleys and hills. Just the perfect country cottage to rekindle the romance in your life.

Once you have settled in, the decisions are simple. Stay on the property and….

• Learn how to fly fish in our dams using our local experts
• Swim in the pool
• Play a set of tennis
• Relax and read a book or magazine, and enjoy the peace
• Pack the picnic basket and stride to the top of the nearest hill and gaze in awe at the views

Did you know that we are just 40 minutes from the summit of Lake Mountain, or 1.5 hrs from Mount Buller. With the snow and ski season the best for years, stay in comfort and go and have a look!!
