Bird Hill isn’t just for guests—it’s our family’s holiday home, lovingly shared with those who appreciate nature, comfort and quiet connection. Nestled in the quaint town of Woori Yallock, Bird Hill sits gently on one acre of evolving gardens, with fruit and nut trees, vegetable beds and native blooms. It’s a place where birds can feed from your hand, butterflies drift through citrus blossoms, and the rhythm of the land invites you to slow down.
🌿 The Cottage - A true holiday home experience
Built many years ago as a holiday home, Bird Hill still holds that spirit of retreat. Inside, you’ll find a blend of old-world charm and modern comfort. Furnishings and decor is tasteful, practical, and sometimes sentimental - chosen to reflect the character of each room. Beds are made using quality linen with comfortable mattresses and the kitchen is exceptionally well equipped: cooking essentials, an array of teas and coffee, spices, condiments, oils, and thoughtful extras you may have forgotten.
In winter, the wood heater adds a warm, cosy glow, while ducted gas heating keeps the cottage snug and welcoming. Air conditioning is available for warmer days.
Outside, the private back deck offers a front-row seat to nature. Many birds including Yellow-Breasted Robins and Grey Fantails often follow you through the garden, while King Parrots, Rosellas, and Lorikeets bring bursts of colour. Wildlife is part of the experience—kangaroos, wombats, frogs, lizards, bees, and other creatures may make an appearance.
It’s all part of the magic at Bird Hill.
