Grampians Pioneer Cottages
Overview
Grampians Pioneer Cottages offers a peaceful retreat on 60 acres of native bushland, right at the foot of the Grampians National Park. Here, you'll wake to mountain views, spot kangaroos grazing nearby, and enjoy the warmth of an open log fire. The cottages are thoughtfully spaced for privacy, making it easy to unwind and reconnect with nature - whether you're after a romantic escape or a relaxed family break.
Each self-contained cottage has its own character, built from reclaimed Australian and New Zealand timbers, stone, mudbrick, corrugated iron, and century-old redbricks. With four unique options - Redgum Log, Redbrick, Mudbrick, and Stone - there's a cosy spot for every kind of traveller. It's the sort of place where sunrise and sunset become the main events, and life slows down just enough to savour the simple things.

Wildlife encounters are a standout, with kangaroos, wallabies, emus, deer, birds and friendly chickens right at the door, and even glimpses of giraffes thanks to the neighbouring zoo. The location is a short drive to Halls Gap and close to top hikes like MacKenzie Falls and the Pinnacle. Guests also loved the outdoor BBQ area, Weber and fire pit for evenings under the stars. Several reviewers praised hosts Aidan and Corinne for being warm, helpful and accommodating. Highly recommended for a tranquil, authentic Grampians getaway.
