The owner made us feel very welcome and made our stay incredibly comfortable and peaceful. My daughter loved patting the animals and playing on the trampoline and the property itself is just gorgeous. The accommodation was pristine and beautiful and the breakfast inclusions were plentiful and generous. We will definitely recommend this place to family and friends and will hopefully stay there again one day.

Well presented property.
The owner Rebecca was lovely.
Everything is well thought out and she provides everything you need for a night away.
Could not fault the premises she has done a lovely job.
Only downside is the guest room is attached to their personal residence.
Which you could here walking from upstairs.

My partner and I stayed the night at wonderful Emerald Ridge. The owners had thought of everything, a welcome book with areas to explore, breakfast for the morning and lovely wine to enjoy in the spa bath! Very peaceful and an excellent night's sleep in the massive comfy bed. Would definitely recommend. One of the best places we have both stayed and we have travelled alot. Book and you won't be disappointed!

Everything we needed and more
Fabulous place. Spacious, well appointed and beautifully located house. Everything we needed was there. The bed was comfy, the bathroom shiny and large, the kitchen had way more than I expected - I was able to bake a cake, cook a dinner and we made the full breakfast in the morning. Quiet and peaceful. Reasonable value for money, too. I'll be back.

The best hotel in the area
This accommodation is amazing. It was so homey and everything was perfect. It is so good that we didn't want to leave, so instead of going out for dinner we decided to do takeaway and eat in the accommodation instead. This is the best place we've stayed in for a 4-star hotel.

This Emerald escape is a true gem
After a great day exploring the Yarra Valley we stayed one night at this beautiful property, Emerald Ridge, in the Guest Room.
As soon as you turn up the driveway you know you're in for a treat.
The hosts greeted us on arrival and showed us all we needed to know about the room. You're then left in peace to really enjoy the modern, well designed and spacious accommodation which is also right in the heart of nature.
The room featured a king size bed, a lounge area with two comfortable chairs, a small table for two, a large TV (which can rotate to any direction in the room), books, magazines, chess board, a luxurious bathroom with two shower heads, a large spa bath, and a small kitchenette with toaster and microwave. There is air conditioning and a gas fireplace depending on your needs.
There was a lovely bottle of sparkling wine and a block of chocolate in the room, as well as everything you needed for breakfast - bacon, toast, an assortment of cereal, fresh fruit and peach cups, yoghurts, orange juice, milk, spaghetti and baked beans and an assortment of spreads.
If you're looking for a little piece of heaven - this is it.
