Welcome to the Yellow Box Wood

luxury tented accommodation

Located 90 mins from Melbourne and close to Heathcote in beautiful Central Victoria.  We offer two luxurious off-grid large safari-style glamping tents set in 100 acres of natural bush.

Both tents can accommodate up to 4 guests, have their own private fire-pits, BBQs and spacious decks with breath-taking views across surrounding hills and woodlands.

You will also have use of a mineral salt swimming pool which is set in a fully landscaped native garden - a terrific option for relaxation during your stay. In addition, you may wander or ride through the 100 acres of bush on the property.

We would like to acknowledge the Taungurung people of the Heathcote and Central Victoria Region & pay our respects to their elders past and present. It gives us great pleasure to be able to share this beautiful natural environment and culture with our visitors.

Echidna ridge

Set high on the hill with spectacular views that also capture the sunset, the tent is built on a raised timber platform and features a large undercover deck.

Emu valley

Nestled in the valley but still with great views to the South-East that capture the sunrise, the tent is built on a raised timber platform and features a large undercover deck.

Get away to the bush

Relax and enjoy the magic and romance of camping, whilst at the same time retaining a high level of comfort.  Our luxury tented accommodation is fully off-grid and environmentally sustainable – you can rest-assure that your visit will have a minimal carbon impact.

The glamping tents are carefully sited to ensure maximum privacy and enjoyment of the views and adjacent landscapes. The mineral salt swimming pool is a short walk (or drive) down the hill and provides another great opportunity for relaxation and rejuvenation.

15 minutes from the vibrant and growing country town Heathcote, renowned for its wineries (particularly Shiraz) and increasingly, it’s options for nature-based activities including cycling, walking and birdwatching. Our property offers more than a 100 acres for you to explore with 2-3km of marked tracks. We also share a boundary with the Heathcote-Graytown National Park, so if you wish to access this beautiful piece of remnant Box-Ironbark Forest it is right on your doorstep.

Beyond the property itself you are within 30-45mins of several well-known tourism towns in the region, including Bendigo, Nagambie, Lancefield, Castlemaine and Kyneton.  We believe that both the location and the setting of the Yellow Box Wood provides you with an unrivalled opportunity to unwind, immerse yourself in nature and enjoy the attractions of the region.

More detailed information on what to see and do in the region is available in the compendium upon arrival.

We hope you enjoy your stay at the Yellow Box Wood and look forward to catching up during your visit
