We purchased Riverdale in 2009 after instantly falling in love with the magic exuding from the beautiful flower gardens, fields, bush lands and old majestic gum trees on the river flats of the Yarra River. We wanted to share this unique place with others and had the idea to develop an accommodation and retreat venue that maintains a strong philosophy of sustainability.

Working with biodynamic principles, we have since then been passionately and dedicatedly transforming the property into what some have called a ‘paradise off the grid', relying on solar power and tank water.

The property features a large kitchen and bush food garden, a two-acre flower garden with over 100 rose bushes and an orchard. With paths along the bordering Yarra River and through open fields, and the Warburton ranges as a backdrop, guests can walk and explore the unique beauty this property holds.

Guests can also enjoy swims in the river, games of table tennis, beautiful picnic spots, ride along the passing Lilydale to Warburton trail or take short drives to the many nearby popular attractions including famous Yarra Valley wineries and lush mountain forests.

    We loved Riverdale. Great little escape and the kids made their own fun collecting firewood and going for walks around the property. Close to everything you need to access but far enough away to be completely alone! Would recommend.

    This property was so incredibly relaxing and great being off grid to get kids off devices. Definitely plan to book again for a longer stay to unwind more!

    We had a very peaceful and relaxing break thanks to a comfortable house and a stunning property. The views were amazing, mountains, ancient-looking gumtrees, rivers and beautiful gardens. Thank you.

    Our stay was the perfect peaceful relaxing getaway. Long walks to the river and around the garden. Snug and cosy night's by the fire after spending time star gazing. The house is clean and well set up maximising the views of the garden. Beds were super comfy! Thankyou for having us. We will be back!

    We really enjoyed our stay at riverdale. The house is very clean and has everything you need. The beds are very comfortable , we all had good sleep there. Martina is a very lovely lady, she provided all the information we need, and she allowed us to pick fruit and vegetables in the garden. Thanks a lot !

    Beautiful gardens, lots of seating, river to splash in and gorgeous clean house. All very relaxing. lovely host booked in with minimum of fuss. Make sure you understand that the house is off-grid, with everything that comes with being off-grid. We had the most lovely girls weekend away. Would very happily stay here again.

    great experience overall. the area was nice and quiet. didn’t get to explore around the place itself due to limited time. but facility overall was good.
