Hi, I’m Chantal—host of Pobblebonk Lodge, a private bush sanctuary designed for couples to truly switch off and reconnect. I’m passionate about creating beautiful, thoughtful stays, from a perfectly prepared hot tub under the stars to cosy fireside moments that feel effortless. When I’m not hosting, you’ll find me exploring nature, planning my next trip or cooking to unwind. I respect your privacy, but I’m always nearby if you need anything.

 

Not your average stay—this is Kinglake’s most indulgent off-grid retreat.

Private hot tub, double-sided fireplace, and pure bush serenity await.

 

 

Experience the tranquil beauty of Pobblebonk Lodge—an award-winning eco off-grid retreat nestled among the gum trees in Kinglake.

 

The property features two private, self-contained guest pavilions, positioned on either side of the main residence where your hosts live onsite. Each pavilion is thoughtfully designed to ensure complete privacy and a peaceful, undisturbed stay.

 

Enjoy a luxury bush escape with your own private entrance, full kitchen, cosy lounge, and double-sided wood fireplace. Step onto your deck to take in the natural surroundings, or unwind in a stunning bathroom with a dual vanity, 4-jet Vichy shower, and deep soaking bath. Large picture windows frame the landscape, bringing the outdoors in.

 

Fully off-grid, the lodge runs on solar energy with rainwater harvesting and advanced filtration. Each pavilion includes smart tech, personalised heating and cooling, and EV charging access.

 

Set overlooking two ponds with abundant birdlife—and the occasional platypus—guests can also enjoy shared outdoor spaces including a fire pit and Tuscan-inspired kitchen garden with pizza oven and Parilla grill.
