Escape to Bella Vista, a beautifully renovated, pet-friendly three-bedroom retreat in Bonnie Doon, where sweeping countryside views and glimpses of Lake Eildon set the scene for a relaxed High-Country stay.
Thoughtfully renovated and styled by its Italian owners, Bella Vista brings together contemporary country living with a subtle nod to their heritage. Warm tones, natural textures and carefully chosen pieces give the home its individual character, while a fabulous remodelled kitchen sits at the heart of the house – a beautiful space for cooking, gathering and sharing long, leisurely meals.
The kitchen flows into the dining and family area, complete with foosball table for a little friendly competition, while double doors open to a separate lounge where you can settle in and unwind. With two distinct living zones, there’s plenty of room for families and friends to enjoy time together – or find a quiet corner of their own.
Outside, the spacious deck makes the most of Bella Vista’s wonderful setting. Start the morning with coffee overlooking the rolling countryside, enjoy a relaxed BBQ after a day exploring, or simply sit back and take in the changing High Country landscape.
As evening falls, gather around the firepit under the stars, while foosball and table tennis provide plenty of entertainment back at the house.
Bella Vista sleeps up to six guests across three bedrooms and is pet friendly, so your four-legged family member can join the adventure too. There is also ample parking for cars, boats and trailers, making it an excellent base for guests bringing their boat to Lake Eildon.
And when you’re ready to explore, Lake Eildon is just minutes away. Spend summer days boating, swimming and fishing, discover the Great Victorian Rail Trail, explore nearby Mansfield and the surrounding High Country, or head towards Mount Buller for winter adventures.
Whether it’s a lake weekend, a family getaway, a country escape with friends or simply a few days away with your dog, Bella Vista is a place to slow down, reconnect and enjoy everything that makes Bonnie Doon and Victoria’s High Country so special.
