About this house rental

Located in Loch Sport, this attractive house for $355 per night is a fantastic option for your next break. This beautiful and unusual property is located on the shore of Lake Victoria, one of the set of lakes making up the extraordinary and extensive Gippsland Lakes. The bush-land garden extends to your own private piece of shoreline with fantastic views. In summer you may like to swim, paddle or fish, relax on the wide deck, or even just enjoy the view from the comfort of the lounge. The ever changing lake is always a pleasure to watch. There are local bush walks and lots of photo opportunities here. The house is striking and unique, consisting of two distinct and separate sections joined by deck. The main building provides a simple but fully equipped kitchen, open plan lounge, dinning, master bedroom (1 queen bed) and spacious bathroom (step down required). The second spacious self-contained bedroom (1 double bed) is separated from the main building by deck, accessed from the car-park by ramp and includes a wheelchair accessible bathroom. Also included is a breakfast bar - kettle, toaster, crockery, fridge, etc. small dining table and private sitting area. The 'garden' is 3 acers of native Banksia forest with wonderful contorted gum trees and across the lake is the Lakes National Park. This somewhat wild garden is filled with bush-land and water birds - honey-eaters, wrens, owls, swans, sea eagles and many more; and is often visited by the native wildlife including koala, kangaroo, echidnas, wombats, possums and others. These guys are generally the nosiest thing around in this very tranquil place. This truly unique and relaxing setting is the perfect place for a recharge or a a very special (maybe even romantic) treat! Get away from your everyday and experience the 'wild' in comfort. Services Services, shops, restaurants, coffee, fuel, health services, etc. are about 15-20 minutes away in either Bairnsdale or Paynesville - but the house contains all the necessaries for cooking up a meal if you bring your own ingredients. Local Attractions At the end of the road (1 km) is the Wattle Point Jetty and boat ramp, and also a lovely beach for walking or an alternative swimming spot. This is also a good place for windsurfing and fishing. There is also a lovely short walk to the point (about 2km) along a bush track featuring native flora including magnificent grass-trees, which starts from just near the front gate. Just down the road (about 3km) is the Blond Bay Reserve which contains fabulous diverse native vegetation and yet more wildlife - including Hog deer. Region Attractions The Gippsland Lakes, Ninety Mile beach, Rivers and Parks of this area provided a abundance of natural attractions but the region is also home to a diverse community of arts and crafts people and the area is also gaining a strong reputation for provision of excellent food and wine. In short the region provide fantastic resource for R&R of all varieties. A Note re Kids and Pets Being UN-fenced and having a completely separated second bedroom this venue can be a challenging setting for young children. Apologies but there is no secured play area Kids. Older children will love the wildlife, climbing trees and unlimited access to the lake shore, but younger children will required constant close supervision. Similarly, pets are allowed but will need to be under supervision, on lead or contained, for both their sake and to protect the wildlife. Thank you.

Stylish, homely, thoughtful, relaxing, grounding, stillness, these are some of our first impressions. We felt we were totally off the grid. We loved the regular visits from the resident wallaby and roo families, spectacular bird watching and pure relaxation. Favourite inclusions were the outdoor shower, lying on the sunbed, immediate lake access to use our kayaks, daily dips and swims and the personal design touches and artwork around the property. Ellen is a wonderful person and host who was located nearby so we could contact her if needed. This is a hidden secret and worth every cent. Perfect for down time to reconnect and ground one self. This would especially suit those with kayaks as the water access was just devine. Other local visitors included a wombat and koala. We will be back :) Thank you Ellen xxxxxx

Nice and clean accommodation located in secluded area. Birds and kangaroos are at the backyard. Jetty is nearby and you can do fishing or kayaking or boating without the crowd. Just bring the stuff with you. Bairnsdale and Metung are closeby within reach. My family and I enjoy our visit very much. Thank you Ellen for your hospitality. Blessings ...
