Dandenong Ranges AccommodationThese mountain ranges offer incredible views of the city of Melbourne. There is a steam train (Puffing Billy) that meanders through the breathtaking landscape. Surrounding villages have much to offer in markets, galleries, boutiques, and beautiful gardens. The Dandendongs have become known as a great destination for city people needing some fresh air and a luxurious hideaway. It is conveniently close to the city of Melbourne to make it an easy "escape". There are so many stunning cottages, B&Bs, and resorts that it is hard to narrow it down to just the tree we list here.

They are surrounded by gorgeous gardens with an outstanding view. Even though they are on a mountaintop, they are still conveniently located near Mount Dandendong village, the steam train, parks, restaurants, and wineries.All four cottages are secluded and sleep two adults.

My family and I come here often in the weekend to "get away from it all". Plants, animals, flowers, birds, trees—there is no end of natural wonders to observe. Train lovers will enjoy viewing all this beauty from Puffing Billy, Australia’s oldest steam railway. Consider the Dandendong Ranges for your next vacation, it is well worth it.
