Swan Cove Beachfront Cottage

Wide open spaces, fresh air and no crowds. This Tudor style house is located on one of the most beautiful places on Raymond Island, 6km's from the Paynesville township on 10 acres of bushland with tall trees in a parklike setting. Secluded off a beautiful long winding driveway, the house with it's two built in 2 storey cottages is but a few metres from the water's edge, has a safe sandy beach which stretches for miles on this side of the island. There is no road between the house and beach! This area in Gippsland is well known for its mild climate in winter, and cooling sea breezes in the hot summertime. It is surely one of the finest inland lake locations in Victoria, indeed Australia. It offers great variety such as swimming, bushwalking, sailing, boating, fishing, bowling and golf.
The prawns run right out the front in summer and the owners have available kayaks to explore the lakes system.
We offer truly peaceful, exclusive and tranquil surroundings in which to relax and be close to unspoiled nature.

Paradise
We had family visiting from Germany. They loved the german-style accommodation, and we're blown away with all the wildlife. Apart from Koalas and Kangaroos (expected) they saw several dolphins, fed birds from their hand. They loved their stay - highlight of their Aussie holiday.

Will be back!
What a beautiful property. The little cottage we stayed in was so gorgeous, it was clean and cosy with so much character and an amazing history behind it!! We loved Casper the resident dog, he was kind enough to show us around on a walk. We saw a koala in one of the trees by the cottage which was very special. Thank you to Kirsten and Tony, we can't wait to go back!

Charming stay
Great 2 night stay on this beautiful secluded property set amongst wildlife, directly on the lake. Owners were nice to chat with. Kitchen was well stocked and the breakfast basket was a lovely welcome. Would recommend for anyone looking to experience the beauty of Raymond Island.
