About

Little Cherry is a private bluestone studio for two, set in the bush at Sun-Kissed Forest Garden in the Dandenong Ranges. The studio has a queen bedroom, a modern ensuite, and a kitchenette for slow mornings. Step outside to kangaroos, birdsong, and four acres of native bush. Emerald village is five minutes away, the Yarra Valley cellar doors are 30 minutes. The right size for two people who want to properly stop.

Good to know

Little Cherry is a compact and private studio built from old-world bluestone, sharing an exterior wall with its neighbour Little Acorn but accessed through its own entrance, with complete privacy throughout your stay. The studio is sized right for two. A queen bedroom with a modern ensuite, a kitchenette stocked with what you need for quiet mornings - a kettle, a toaster, a fridge, a microwave - and armchairs positioned toward the bush outside. The setting does the rest. There is something specific to waking up in a small, well-built room in a forest. The light comes in slowly. The birds start early. The kangaroos that graze in the yard are entirely indifferent to you. Little Cherry was designed for exactly this kind of morning. The four acres of bush surrounding the property are yours to explore on foot. The other villas on the property sit at a respectful distance with their own entrances and rhythms.

Other Details to Note

Emerald village is a five-minute drive. There are good cafes, a reliable pub, and the Puffing Billy station for a scenic morning on the railway through the Ranges. The Yarra Valley is roughly 30 minutes from the property and offers some of Victoria's best cellar-door experiences at Yering Station, Rochford, and Giant Steps in Healesville. The Healesville Sanctuary is nearby for those who want it.

Neighborhood

Emerald is a quiet hill town with a settled, independent character. The Dandenong Ranges National Park begins almost at the edge of the village, and the walking tracks through Sherbrooke Forest and the Kokoda Track Memorial Walk in Belgrave offer genuine old-growth forest within 20 minutes of the property.

Guest Access

Little Cherry is yours entirely: the queen bedroom, ensuite, and kitchenette. You have a private entrance separate from the neighbouring studio. The four-acre grounds are open to explore.

Find us

A car is recommended. The Yarra Valley is 30 to 40 minutes by road. Melbourne CBD is approximately one hour. Puffing Billy connects Belgrave to Gembrook via Emerald and is worth at least one trip.
