Absolutely 10/10 perfect if you’re looking for a relaxing, quiet, off the grid, & charming place to stay in amongst some of Victoria’s greatest food and wine offerings. Don’t expect 5 star hotel, expect breathtaking views from your cabin where sunrise & sunset blow you away. Expect a comfortable cottage with character. The restaurant views are no different. The food is quality living off the land type home cooking that fills the belly nicely. Put your phone away and relax as you walk around the farm taking in the magic of rural beauty. It is located an easy drive away from an array of quality dining in the region. The owners Robert and Jan are very friendly and welcoming. Bring snacks and whatever you need to get properly immersed in the surroundings. The perfect place to base yourself to reset.

We have just returned from an amazing three nights at Tuki. It was hands down the most relaxing weekend away we've ever had, even though we did a lot around the area. The spa bath was very welcome after we returned from a 50km bike ride on the Ballarat Rail Trail, the spring water at Tuki does wonders for overworked muscles.
Robert and Jan were so helpful and friendly, it was an absolute pleasure to be so welcome on their farm. Spending time amongst the animals on a working farm was great, so good to look out the window and see horses and sheep just over the other side of the dam. Breakfast in the restaurant was delicious, and the coffees that went with it were fantastic.
Next time we visit Tuki we will definitely spend more time on the property and really unwind. Plus get the chance to throw in a line and catch a trout for dinner.

Perfect, cozy, picturesque getaway. Only 30mins from Daylesford/Hepburn Springs. The cottage and farm were beautiful. Amazing views. The beds were so comfortable. The open fire place and large spa were perfect. Spring water on tap and great cooking facilities. We had the most friendly horse grazing around our cottage. Wish we had stayed longer to try the restaurant on site.
