Pet Friendly - Rural Sanctuary in St Andrews, Victoria
Relax with the whole family, girls weekend, romantic getaway, friends catch-up, or overnight stay due to work or event at this sanctuary in the heart of St Andrews less than 40kms from Melbourne's CBD.
Walk to the eclectic Saturday market followed by lunch and coffee at the local restaurant/coffee shops, followed by a band at the iconic St Andrews Pub. Wineries, art studios, great restaurants, hiking in nearby Kinglake, so much to see and do, or just relax and enjoy the peace and beautiful wildlife.
