The space The Mokepilly guest suite is a completely private, quiet, spacious, comfortable base from which you can explore the unique and diverse Macedon Ranges region. It's a place to rest and recharge with a glass of local wine and complimentary Netflix, a place to settle down on the huge sofa with a good book from the collection provided, and a place to enjoy a home-cooked meal on the deck overlooking the pond and gardens. The suite is perfect for one or two adults, and we are happy to welcome guests traveling with infants or toddlers - with space for a port-a-cot in the bedroom and a one-person bath (please note that while the bath had a spa function, this has been decommissioned), the suite easily accommodates little ones. We have furnished guest suite with careful consideration for the comfort and enjoyment of our guests whom we encourage to make the most of their stay by enjoying the many amenities of the space - a fully-equipped kitchen with complimentary teas and local ground coffee, a Smart TV with Netflix, a soundbar and a DVD player, free WiFi, a large single-person bath and laundry facilities. Please note that while there is a gas fireplace in the space it is not in service - for safety and sustainability reasons the system was decommissioned prior to us offering the space through Airbnb. You will instead be kept warm, cool and everything in between, as needed, by a reverse-cycle heater/air-conditioner in the main living space which was recently updated to a brand new model in July 2022 to maximise both guest comfort and environmental sustainability. A huge super warm and comfy pure wool blanket is also tucked away in the bedroom cupboard if you need another layer. The garden at Mokepilly has been over thirty years in the making and features a large collection of rare and unique plants, a productive vegetable garden and a rose garden boasting over two hundred and fifty varieties including many highly fragrant and very beautiful English and French roses. When the garden is in bloom, we'll endeavour to leave you with some fresh flowers to enjoy during your stay and to take home with you so that your time at Mokepilly lasts just that little bit longer. We absolutely love sharing the Macedon Ranges with new and returning visitors so we hope you'll choose Mokepilly as your home-away-from-home for your stay in the region. Guest access While in pre-COVID-19 times it would have been our absolute pleasure to provide you with a personalised tour of Mokepilly as part of our welcome, keeping our guests and family safe by strictly adhering to the government's social distancing measures is of course a priority. On arrival, you will be met at the front gate by your host for a contactless, socially-distant welcome. Your host will then provide you with direction to the on-site parking and guidance on where to locate the keys and guest manual for the suite. While the space is connected to the main house by a long corridor, the entrances to both spaces are secured by locking doors. The main entrance to the suites is separate from that of the main house so you will have complete privacy during your stay. If you have a car, you will be able to conveniently park right next to the entrance to the space. Other things to note During the warmer months (October – April) the Macedon Ranges is classified as a significantly bushfire-prone area and the safety of our family and guests is our utmost priority during this time. All guests visiting during the fire season strongly are encouraged in download the VicEmergency app, the official Victorian Government app for access to relevant and tailored emergency warnings and information in Victoria. Please note that as conditions can change at short notice, we do reserve the right to cancel bookings (but will provide a full refund, of course) and/or ask you to check-out early on days of ‘Extreme’ or ‘Catastrophic’ fire danger – this is simply a matter of safety and you will only be asked to leave if safe to do so.
