Welcome to Wombat Forest Country Retreat — a place to slow down, breathe deeply and soak up the beauty of the countryside.
Tucked away in the rolling landscapes of Trentham East, our retreat offers a comfortable and modern space with peaceful views across farmland, forest and water. Wake to the sound of birdsong, enjoy your morning coffee on the back deck, cook a hearty meal in the fully equipped kitchen, or curl up with a book by the window as the sun sets.
This is a place whereyou can truly unwind — read, rest, wander through the trees, or simply enjoy the quiet. Whether you’re here for a romantic weekend, a creative retreat, or a country adventure, we hope you’ll feel right at home.

The space
• Light-filled open-plan living and dining area with sweeping views
• Fully equipped kitchen — ideal for cooking up hearty breakfasts or country dinners
• Covered back deck with outdoor seating for sunsets, stargazing or a cuppa with the birds
• One private bedroom with queen bed and ensuite bathroom
• A versatile daybed in the lounge that can be used for reading and relaxing, or converted into a king-size bed, allowing the Retreat to accommodate up to four guests (all sharing the ensuite)

The Retreat is attached to our main house and has:
• Its own driveway and parking area
• A private entrance with no shared internal spaces
You’re also welcome to enjoy the large grassy backyard, which backs onto three acres of beautiful trees, gardens, and ponds — perfect for exploring at your leisure.
Please note, we kindly ask that guests do not enter the adjoining market gardens without permission.

Extras for comfort and leisure
• Free-to-air TV, DVD library, books and board games
• Fresh produce box available for purchase straight from our veggie garden
• Variety of local maps and tips for nearby walks, cafes and places to visit

• Trentham (10 mins): home to Red Beard Bakery, Trentham Falls and boutique shops
• Woodend (15 mins): visit Kuzu, Holgate Brewhouse or stop by the Visitor Centre
• Kyneton (25 mins): galleries, eateries and monthly farmers markets

    We really enjoyed our stay. Our host were friendly, accommodating and quick in responding to our messages. The place was clean and everything was provided. One thing that we would like to highlight - The pots and pans were in really good condition.

    We had a nice couple of days staying at this place.David greet us personally and showed around.Very clean and inviting atmosphere.Lots of games, many old cd’s that was lovely to watch.Surroundings are the best, so nice and quiet.Lovely to wake up by yourself without cars honking and other noises, just random cockatoos and kookaburras screaming at each other .Would love some breakfast food in the pantry, but otherwise all was perfect.
