Yelverton Brook is my favourite place to be! If you are looking for a wonderful place to unwind, reset, relax and indulge in nature then this is your pick! From the secluded and quaint little cottages (we stayed in Fern) that have all you need, to the beautiful bush surroundings where you can explore, or just sit and watch, to the amazing and friendly wildlife interactions. The animals are my favourite part of Yelverton Brook! Kangaroos on your doorstep that eat out of your hand, bobtails and lizards that wander around, birds that flutter here and there, and the night comes alive with possums, woylies and bandicoots that all ate out of our hands also! We enjoyed our private spa under the stars while watching the nightlife before sitting on the patio and waiting for the animals to approach us. Everything about this place is magical! Joy and Simon have done an outstanding job to provide such a wonderful place to unwind and enjoy nature. I honestly did not stop smiling the whole time I wa

We stayed with some friends in one of the 2 bedroom chalets for a long weekend. Wildlife every morning and evening with a fantastic relaxing outside spa. Great location, we never felt like we had to drive far to get anywhere we wanted to go. We will absolutely be staying again!
Steven Hamam
Amazing honeymoon location! There's enough to do and see at the retreat without even having to leave, and there's breweries and wineries galore nearby. Can't recommend this place enough. 11/10.
