WELCOME TO COUNTRY HOUSE RETREAT

Escape to a secluded country paradise at Country House Retreat, a peaceful rural holiday home set on 50 acres of gentle pastures and native bush. Located just minutes from the charming coastal town of Lakes Entrance and lakeside village of Metung, and only a short drive to the stunning Gippsland Lakes, this home offers the best of both worlds. You're close enough to all East Gippsland has to offer, but you'll feel like your worlds away from the holiday crowds.

Whether you're planning a romantic weekend, a family holiday, or a fun getaway with friends, this contemporary country home is the perfect base for creating lasting memories. Ideal for families, groups, and couples traveling with pets, the house has been thoughtfully designed to appeal to guests looking to reconnect with nature, in style.

MUCH LOVED AMENITIES
Country House Retreat is a spacious, modern home designed with relaxation and entertainment in mind. Much loved holiday features include an expansive entertainment deck with wood-fired pizza oven, Weber Family BBQ, and outdoor dining. Enjoying stunning views over the peaceful dam and the rolling pastures that surround the property, the deck is the ideal spot for alfresco meals, sunset cocktails, or simply soaking in the tranquility of the countryside over a morning brew.

For year-round relaxation, soak in the 6-person outdoor heated spa, where you can unwind under the stars or after a day of exploring. The spa appeals to young and old alike, offering a fun way to relax together in this private and serene setting.

The home’s layout includes ramp access for wheelchairs and handrails in the ensuite bathroom, ensuring accessibility and comfort for all guests. We also have a range of mobility aids available upon request, including mobile hoist and hospital bed.

COMFORTABLE SPACIOUS HOME
With four well-appointed bedrooms and two bathrooms, the home comfortably accommodates up to 10 guests. The main bedroom is a luxurious retreat, featuring a king-size bed, a walk-in robe, and a sublime ensuite that offers gorgeous views of the native bushland. The spacious ensuite features a double walk in shower, high-end fixtures, and ample space.

Two additional bedrooms are fitted with trilogy bunks—double beds with a single bunk above—ideal for kids, teenagers, or extra guests. The fourth bedroom offers a queen size bed, with views overlooking the native bush. All bedrooms feature block out blinds for undisturbed sleep.

The fully equipped open plan kitchen is stocked with everything you need to feel like you're cooking in your own home. Whether you're slow-cooking, stir-frying, or baking, the cooktop, oven, and microwave make it easy to prepare meals. There’s plenty of plastic ware for little ones, and outdoor dining is a breeze with everything you need to dine al fresco, or prepare a pizza feast!

For your convenience, we provide salt and pepper, cooking spray, foil, and cling wrap, so you don't need to worry about packing these essentials. Enjoy your meals in the open-plan kitchen and dining area, where you can admire the stunning countryside views from every window. Start your day right with our Nespresso machine and tea selection, to get your holiday off to a great start.

When the cooler months roll in, the cosy log fire creates a warm and inviting atmosphere. We provide all the wood you’ll need for those chilly nights. Alternatively, you can enjoy instant warmth and comfort with the split system air conditioning.

When it's time to wind down, the plush leather sofa in the living area is the perfect spot to relax. Catch up on your favourite shows on the 55-inch HD TV or get the music playing through the portable speaker—it's your time to unwind in total privacy and peace. And of course, we’ve got all the modern comforts, including deluxe hotel-quality linen and towels to ensure your stay is as comfortable as possible.

For stays longer than seven nights, we provide fresh linen and towels at no extra charge, keeping your stay convenient and hassle-free.

PETS WELCOME
We know that pets are part of the family, which is why we welcome your four-legged friends to join you at Country House Retreat. Clean and flea-free pets are welcome, but they must be past the chewing phase. Pets are allowed in the house and can stay in non-carpeted areas, ensuring a clean environment for all guests.

Your pets will love the secure, fenced yard, where they can roam freely and safely. For pets who enjoy the outdoors, we also offer a chain dog run adjacent to the homestead, giving your furry companions plenty of space to stretch their legs. We do ask that you clean up after your pets, and provide a scooper and bags for your convenience.

Please note that any additional cleaning required or damage caused by pets will incur a charge, so we ask you to be mindful of the property.

EXPLORE EAST GIPPSLAND
Country House Retreat is ideally located to give you easy access to the best of East Gippsland. Spend your days exploring the stunning Gippsland Lakes, just a short drive away, where you can enjoy boating, fishing, or simply taking in the views. The charming towns of Lakes Entrance and Metung are only minutes from the property, offering local dining, shopping, and plenty of activities for all ages. Whether you’re after a scenic walk, a fishing adventure, or simply want to explore local vineyards and eateries, the area has something for everyone.

We want to ensure you have the perfect experience, so when you arrive, we’ll have brochures, maps, and visitor information available to help you plan your stay. Whether you’re here for a relaxing break or seeking adventure, there’s so much to discover in this beautiful part of the world.

YOUR HOSTS
Country House Retreat is located next to our working farm, so we're close by if you need any assistance throughout your stay, but will respect your privacy at all times.

Over many years, we've built a reputation for exceptional hospitality and professionalism, and we're committed to ensuring that every guest feels right at home. Our goal is to make sure you have everything you need to relax, recharge, and enjoy every moment of your time at Country House Retreat.

When you stay at our property, you're not just booking a place to stay - you're immersing yourself in a true "escape to the country" experience. Our farm animals are often grazing nearby (cattle, sheep, horses) so close encounters with farm animals may also be possible during your visit.

A lovely house for a weekend away
We had a lovely weekend staying at this property. The house and surrounding garden were both beautiful. We saw so many different birds, including a pair of king parrots. The house is warm and welcoming, and all of the beds are super comfortable. Thank you for a lovely stay, we hope to come back and stay again sometime!

A country retreat
This was a great location, 15 minutes from a tourist destination, set back on a quiet road. You can have a relaxing holiday with very little activities, or as a base to explore the area. The spa was great and offered that relaxing time that many need when on holiday. For those who like to cook there is the wood fired pizza oven. The house is surrounded by a fence that kept our dog in. We really had a great time, enjoying the peace and tranquility of the country. We would highly recommend staying here.

Everything we could ask for
We had to cancel our regular Qld holiday and rebook in the Gippsland Lakes. Staying at Country House Retreat made us almost forget we were ever going to go to Qld. This quiet, beautiful and comfortable setting gave us the best of the country and the beach life. The house is even better than it looked in the photos and had everything we needed for a great stay. Our kids spent time with the farm animals and we all loved roaming the private bushland behind the house. Whilst the owners were always available to answer any queries, we had complete privacy. Sitting out on the deck watching the birds in the warm evenings was blissful. We absolutely loved our stay and it has made us reconsider our regular Qld trip.

We have just had a wonderful 6 night stay at the house. My family and my sisters family (total of 6) thoroughly enjoyed our time at the house and enjoyed the areas activities. The house is well proportioned and appointed, we particularly enjoyed the deck and the pizzas we made in the wood fired oven. The outlook is glorious, so quiet and tranquil yet so close to Metung and Lakes Entrance. I recommend the house highly as a place to except to yet be close to facilities and lots of fun activities.

This is a lovely, big home located on beautiful land. Being pet-friendly was a major bonus for us, as were all the other add-ons; pizza oven, spa, games area and outside fire. The house is roomy, comfortable and very well equipped. The inside fire does an outstanding job of keeping the house warm on the cold winter nights we experienced.
