The most incredible location full of endless scenery, a nice comfy big bed with the best morning view, an open fire place in lounge room and heating for extra warmth in cottage. The food in the restaurant was AMAZING! A must do when staying! The best country escape for a getaway. We loved the free roaming sheep and lambs on the entrance to the farm and seeing beautiful horses in nearby paddocks grazing. Robert and Jan were so accommodating, easy going and lovely people to talk to. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

To note for future guests: there was no oven or stovetops in cottage but there is a microwave, kettle and little fridge. Perfect kitchen space for storing snacks, making cheese platters or simple non cooking meals. The lovely restaurant is a MUST for meals!! We loved not having or being able to properly cook in the cottage as the food at the restaurant was no word of a lie, absolutely delicious, locally sourced and incredible food… perfection.

The location was picturesque and relaxing which is definitely what my partner and I needed. The ambience of birds chirping and water flowing can be heard from your cottage. The quality utensils, spa bath and friendly farm animals were a lovely touch. Both nights we used the little patio to watch the sunset which was so beautiful. I spoke with the owners before I left and it is evident that the property and animals are well cared for. I feel rejuvenated after my visit. Thank you Tuki!

No major issues however it may have been nice to have some DVDs to use in the DVD player.

We absolutely loved Tuki retreat. Stayed at the stone cottages and admired the craftsmanship, the warmth of the fireplace on cold winter nights and the mesmerising views. Jan and Robert the owners are beautiful people, that have created a piece of Australian paradise on their land. With vision and creative work. At Tuki "Every day is a good day" as Robert says. It's also a treat! The food available on site was fantastic and made mainly from farm produce, eggs, lamb and trouts. We had a very positive and unforgettable experience and would love to visit Tuki again.

Absolutely 10/10 perfect if you’re looking for a relaxing, quiet, off the grid, & charming place to stay in amongst some of Victoria’s greatest food and wine offerings. Don’t expect 5 star hotel, expect breathtaking views from your cabin where sunrise & sunset blow you away. Expect a comfortable cottage with character. The restaurant views are no different. The food is quality living off the land type home cooking that fills the belly nicely. Put your phone away and relax as you walk around the farm taking in the magic of rural beauty. It is located an easy drive away from an array of quality dining in the region. The owners Robert and Jan are very friendly and welcoming. Bring snacks and whatever you need to get properly immersed in the surroundings. The perfect place to base yourself to reset.

The sunset views are absolutely stunning and it was so peaceful sitting by the water catching fish, which was wonderful. There were lots of farm animals to see and experience farm life. We loved Mary, the Lamb, she was such a sweetheart. The restaurant was very cosy and beautiful and the food was delicious. We loved the fact that they cleaned the fish for you after catching them. The beds are extremely comfortable. We loved our stay.

Some of the facilities in the Miners Cottage need a little maintenance but nothing that was not sorted out quickly, when we pointed it out. it is a beautiful place to visit.

The cottage was absolutely adorable. Very comfortable. It had everything you could need for a few days away. Perfectly functional kitchenette, great bathroom with lots of hot water and good shower pressure. Bed was incredibly comfortable. High quality linens, electric blankets, great mattress... honestly one of the best nights sleep I have ever had. The view and overall ambiance was unbelieveable. Just so peaceful. The owners went above and beyond to make my stay even more wonderful than expected - even building me a fire in the fireplace and lending me their own personal DVD player. Super pet friendly - my dog was obsessed with the sheep and all the new and interesting sights and smells. It a great little break away. I feel reset. Will definately be coming back.

Literally nitpicking here - the knife provided in the kitchenette wasn't great but it did the job. If you're particular about your cooking utensils, bring your own.

I booked our rustic and appealing stone cottage to attend the Clunes Book Festival. The cottage we had was equipped with all practical needs for a long weekend stay in terms of crockery, cutlery, glassware, cooking utensils, toaster, mini oven and stove as well as toiletries and towels. Lovely bedding and comfortable lounge furniture. Great view over the lake. A quiet and peaceful place. Jan and Robert are welcoming hosts. I would return to this property again.

The stone cottage was a little too dark in places. It needed more lights in the dining/kitchen area. It also needed a coffee table in the sitting room and a small outdoor table between the outdoor chairs. We had to use the dining chairs to rest our drinks on. A coffee table would be useful for to read the papers on. There was a lingering open fire smoke smell but this was not overwhelming.

Robert and Jan are very friendly, welcoming and genuine hosts. The stay was very relaxing and enjoyable for us and our two dogs. The on site restaurant serves breakfast and on Saturday night serves dinner between 6pm and 8pm. Highly recommend the experience of staying here and exploring the nearby towns in the daytime, as you have a lovely cottage to come back to at the end of the day, where you can warm up by the fireplace or soak in the spa after a long day. You have the option of fishing for trout as well, which we will definitely try the next time we come back!

What a beautiful location to wake up in. The sunsets were amazing. The restaurant was closed as it was mid week but Jan was more than happy to cook us a meal from the restaurant menu and deliver it to our cottage. It was absolutely beautiful. Robert and Jan were both very friendly. Thank you for a wonderful stay and we'll definitely be back again.

Location was great, perfect country weekend away. Very friendly staff with lots of great suggestions and helping out while we were staying there. Great atmosphere in the miners cottage. Was a really good bonus to have trout fishing included because we stayed at the property. Also was great to see the all the chicken, dogs and ponies roaming the property.

Cant fault anything about the place, delivered what was expected, a fun and exciting country weekend away. Reception wasn't great but that was definitely acceptable given the location
