Location

Strathdon House And Orchard Precinct, 449 - 465 Springvale Road, Forest Hill VIC

Strathdon House is located within a 6 acre site along Springvale Road, just next to and behind the Forest Hill Police Station. The front car park, accessed via Springvale Road, includes two accessible parking spaces, but please note that the remaining spots have been consistently full due to the recent relocation of the police station. We recommend parking at Davy Lane Reserve. Most navigation systems will recognise "Davy Lane Reserve." If not, head to Davy Lane (off Jolimont Road) and follow it to the gravelled area at the end. There is ample parking available. From the Davy Lane Reserve car park, it's a 200-metre walk along a flat, gravelled footpath to the house.
