A mountain home where the house, garden and valley give everyone room to find their own pace.
Up to 9 guests · 3 bedrooms · 2 bathrooms
Around 90 minutes from Melbourne · close to town, river, forest and trails
Three bedrooms, two living areas and a garden full of places to pause. Gather for long meals, then find a quiet corner of your own.
The whole house and garden, all to yourselves.
Mountain views, generous spaces and the warmth of a character-filled home. Make a coffee, wander the garden or settle beside the fire as the evening cools.
Some stays stay with you.
Mornings begin with mountain air and birdsong. Days unfold through forests, trails and the river. Evenings draw everyone back to the table and the fire.
Pindari is close enough to walk into Warburton, yet high enough in the valley to feel removed from everyday life. It is a place to reconnect with nature, with the people you came with, and with the version of yourself that is not watching the clock.
Pindari means high ground.
A fitting name for the hillside, and for the feeling of stepping away for a while.
No fixed weekend itinerary. Just a series of moments that can stretch across two nights, three nights—or a little longer.
Leave Melbourne a little earlier. Collect something delicious on the way. Open the balcony doors while the afternoon light is still on the mountains, make the first coffee or pour the first glass, and feel the pace change.
Settle in slowly
Reach the Redwoods before the crowds, walk among ancient myrtle beech at the Rainforest Gallery, follow the Birrarung through town—or spend the day discovering Warburton’s expanding mountain-bike trails.
Find your kind of adventure
Cook outside, open something local and let dinner continue long after the barbecue is finished. The reclaimed timber table, festoon lights and infinity-style fire pit are made for the stories that get better as the night goes on.
Stay out under the stars
An extra day means no choosing between the forest, the trails and Pindari itself. Walk the garden, spread a picnic at the bottom of the hill, read beside the fire—or simply make another espresso and decide later.
Ask about your datesThe house is especially good at something many group stays get wrong: giving people separate spaces without losing the feeling of being away together.
Two queen bedrooms, the kitchen, balcony, dining and lounge with the wood fire create an easy shared space for long meals and quieter evenings.
A bedroom, second bathroom, lounge, pool and table-tennis setup give younger guests—or a second family—their own world.
Ride, explore, then come home to a shared meal and a slow evening. Two living areas, laundry facilities and room for the group make Pindari an easy base for time on the trails.
Follow the winding paths beneath the grand oak, find a seat among the stone terraces or wander down to the meadow. Spring blossom, summer shade and autumn colour give every visit its own rhythm.
Warburton rewards early mornings and unhurried days. These are the places we would insist you make time for.
A quiet cathedral of trees when you reach it before the day visitors.

A little planning makes settling in easy. Explore the answers below, or get in touch with a question about your stay. Your first payment email confirms your website hold, total, terms and payment deadline.
Choose your stay and accept the checked total and booking terms. After a final availability check, your first email confirms a website hold for up to 48 hours and includes bank details, the payment reference and deadline. Your paid booking confirmation follows after we verify full payment and availability.
PriceLabs supplies the current nightly rates and minimum-stay rules. The website then adds any mandatory charges, such as cleaning, extra guests after four and an agreed pet fee. For stays under 28 nights, the Victorian short-stay levy is added and included in the displayed total. It is calculated at 7.5% of the final amount paid and rounded down to 5 cents. No GST is charged: the booking entity is not GST-registered. The result is shown as one direct total rather than revealing compulsory charges later.
Website holds block the dates on Pindari’s own calendar as soon as they are created. Airbnb and Vrbo calendars update separately and can be delayed. Your first payment email confirms the result of the final website availability check.
The two queen bedrooms, kitchen, balcony and main living room are upstairs. Downstairs has another bedroom, sofa bed, second bathroom and the games/living zone. Families can gather for meals and the fire, while children have a separate place to play.
Well-behaved dogs are welcome by prior agreement. Please tell us in the enquiry so the pet terms can be included. Side gates need to stay closed and dogs must be kept under control near the front garden and local wildlife. Assistance animals are not treated as pets and do not incur the pet fee.
We’re happy to talk through the layout before you book so you can decide whether it suits your group. The house and garden have stairs, natural boulder steps, uneven surfaces and a steep hillside, and are not step-free. These features may make access difficult for guests with limited mobility. Children need supervision outdoors; please get in touch about any access needs.
Relaxed, comfortable and full of character. Think mountain views over morning coffee, a garden wander, a friendly game downstairs and an evening beside the fire. The espresso machine, fast Wi-Fi and generous living spaces make it easy to feel at home.
A whole holiday house for mountain-bike weekends, rail-trail adventures and time together after the ride. Come home to two living areas, a fire pit and room for your group.
