Fantastic place. We booked a family room for two nights. The room was spacious consisting of a room with a king size bed, a sofa with coffee table, dining table for four and a little area with a sink, dishes, microwave, fridge and cattle. The second room had two single beds. Everything was very clean and there was attention to detail. The outside area was well looked after also. There was a little play area, fairy garden and a lot of green space. The communication was excellent too with Ralph welcoming us via message and asking if we needed anything. We also liked the ease of checking in and out. Overall highly recommend the Yarra Gables.

The perfect place to stay after exploring the Yarra Valley. We use it as our base after a hard day of champagne drinking at Chandon! Nothing better than to come back to our room and unwind with a spa. Will always be our place to stay whenever visiting the region.

This property was just what I needed for my overnight stay in the Yarra Valley. It was clean and roomy. I had everything I needed and everything was easy to find. Although I only stayed overnight I did sit outside on the deck early on the morning before I left and noted that the grounds were very well-kept and pleasant.

We enjoyed our stay at Yarra Gables. The room was spacious and lovely, and the kids loved finding the chocolate in the fridge - they thought the Easter bunny had come around again! The garden is beautiful and so relaxing. Even though the accommodation is on the main road, there's no issue with noise. It's a perfect getaway for family or couples alike!
