We stayed in Mahala which is a work of art in its own right, the small details were amazing. I'm over 6ft and even though the boat itself is a bit space limited the sleeping area was easily big enough for both of us. …

We stayed in Mahala which is a work of art, the small details are amazing. I'm over 6ft and even though the boat itself is a bit limited for space the sleeping area was easily big enough for both of us and the onboard bath was superb. The bell tent alongside was excellent with a settee and log burner, we sat in there watching the beautiful sunset with a glass of wine every evening. The glampsite is very well set out so if you wanted privacy that was easy but if you wanted to socialise with the other guests as we did, the communal firepit and other areas were great. We were lucky enough to meet Johnny and the uber patient Bev both of whom were lovely and so passionate about the vehicles it was inspiring. Cheryl the site manager was on hand if you needed anything, was so welcoming and helpful, nothing was to much trouble. We had such a fantastic time we have already booked to go back next season in a Patricia, can't wait!

It was a wonderful two nights in the boat, Mahala. There is everything you need onboard, may be snug but definitely comfortable. |The lovely horse box shower and toilet , plus the bell tent lounge just add to the perfection. …

We really enjoyed our stay on Mahala, the little boat. Quirky, full of love and lots of attention to detail.Also an amazing amount of extra outside space for cosying up near the fire. An added bonus that we were not expecting was the extra personal gert that acted as a sitting room. We lit the fire and played board games in there one evening.Melbourne is a great town. So many pubs and restaurants to choose from if you don't want to cater for yourself.Location - I loved it. Tucked away down a little track in an open sunny field. The site provides fire pits, an abundance of fuel, loads of outside games etc.The vehicles are quite close together, but really well organised so that every one has its own space.Some people have commented about the flight path. The site is on the flight path, which will be more of an issue depending what time of evening you go to bed. I think that they must stop at a certain time of night because it didn't interrupt my sleep, but I guess it might affect some if you ate especially sensitive to it.Cheryl was very helpful, also the staff in the Brewhouse were very approachable and provide directions to the site. It is possibly some of Cheryl's art work that you will see in the vehicles. You should ask her about it.We were only there for two nights, but if we had stayed longer it looked like there were a lot of walking trails and cycle paths nearby to explore.We would definitely come back.

What an amazing location with equally amazing glamping vehicles. Kudos to Johnny Vegas, Bev, the people who brought the vehicles alive and the team at Melbourne Hall. ||A short two night stay this time, but I’m sure we will be back. …

Having watched the documentary which showed Johnnys passion for his dream , I just had to go. It was perfect for my birthday weekend. I stayed in Skoolie so was able to take my dog. The whole experience was amazing . …
