Picture this: you wake up to crisp mountain air. By mid-morning you’re on the slopes at Mt Buller — 30 minutes up the road. By afternoon you’re back, warm and comfortable, deciding between a sunset drink at The Hunt Club next door or firing up the BBQ on the deck as the valley goes quiet below you.
That’s a day at The Oaks Delatite.
Nestled in the small alpine township of Merrijig, at the foot of Victoria’s High Country, The Oaks is the kind of place that makes every season worth the drive. Winter brings world-class skiing and snowboarding at Mt Buller. Summer fills the calendar with mountain biking on epic trails, fly fishing on the Delatite River, hiking to historic cattlemen’s huts, and long evenings in Mansfield’s surprisingly good restaurant scene. Spring and autumn are quieter, warmer, and arguably the most beautiful of all.
The apartment itself is spacious, spotlessly clean, and set up with everything you need — comfortable beds, a well-equipped kitchen, and the kind of thoughtful touches that make a place feel looked after. Leave the car in the car park and walk to the mountains. Come home to somewhere that feels like a proper retreat, not just a room.
Mansfield’s cafés, restaurants, wineries, and supermarkets are 16 km down the highway — about 15 minutes. Mt Buller is 30 km in the other direction. You’re sitting in exactly the right place.
Whether it’s a long weekend, a ski week, or a summer adventure, The Oaks Delatite gives you a comfortable base in genuinely beautiful country — with a host who’s on hand whenever you need her.
Come and see what the High Country fuss is about.
