Our contemporary home was built in 2017 on a sloping acre of land with a professionally designed landscaped garden enhancing the panoramic views overlooking hills and valleys of farm pastures, bushland with native ferns and trees and down to the seas of Corner Inlet and Bass Strait beyond, with a backdrop of the mountains of Wilson’s Promontory - “The Prom”.

Leisurely gourmet breakfasts are served, at a time of your choice as advise to Julia on arrival, and delivered on a breakfast trolley to your suite. You have a choice of eating indoors or on the deck and at the convenient time that suits you. The breakfast comprises a cooked breakfast dish, cereal with fruit and freshly baked bread, muffins and fruit juice. 

Dinner

Our Gardens


Charming Exterior Artistic Spaces

Our gardens have been professionally and artistically designed and beautifully landscaped to compliment the house.  Great interest and many surprises have been created at almost every turn, making the most of our sloping site in its idyllic natural setting, but in complete sympathy and harmony with the surrounding natural environment using both exotic and many native plants, especially several indigenous to this area. Our gardens are creations to be experienced and enjoyed in all seasons when their character, colours, charms and beauty vary delightfully as each season changes. 

Outdoor Swim Spa Indulgence

Indulge in the open-air hot swim-spa, set in its own extensive timber deck, surrounded by a glass balustrade just outside the guest lounge which overlooks it. Enjoy it as the mood suits you – either swimming or while just sitting back relaxing and sipping your favourite drink soaking up the natural panoramic views, perhaps enhanced by:

  • A glorious colourful summer sunrise over the sea, hills and “The Prom” for early risers accompanied by unique sounds from the chorus of native birds.

  • The leisurely grazing farm animals in pastures close by and on distant hills.  

  • The stunningly beautiful full moon rising above shimmering Corner Inlet and ‘The Prom’ mountains beyond.

  • A fathomless canopy of stars sparkling in the clear dark night sky above and beyond the attractively lit beautiful gardens steeped in floral fragrances.

  • Unique, free Prom Country seasonal entertainment – a strikingly spectacular natural sound and light show – watching lightning crackle over the granite boulders of ‘The Prom’ and illuminating Corner Inlet - especially in winter.

  • Watching occasional visits by native wildlife – including colourful birds, possums,  deer (are they really  native?), wombats, wallabies, kangaroos, echidnas and koalas from the native bushland in the gully alongside the property.            

Laze and chill out in comfort on a lounge on the north-facing spa deck or your own private deck enjoying a snooze, reading a good book, the newspapers or one of many in a wide selection of interesting complimentary quality magazines available to our guests, while soaking up the warm rays of the sun in the fresh, unpolluted Prom Country air, moved periodically by a gentle sea breeze with the tranquil sounds of unique melodic birdsong and nature all around you, or perhaps savouring a few of your favourite pieces of music.

Activities

There is plenty to do with a wonderful selection of walks and places to discover in Prom Country.  Art galleries, museums, historic buildings, scenic attractions, rail trails and wineries abound.  Indulge in delicious food and wine along with your favourite pastime or special interest with a myriad possible gentle activities:

  • leisurely rambles

  • breathtaking car tours, cycling

  • picnics in stunning locations

  • antique hunting, bird watching, bush poetry, cooking classes

  • flower and garden shows, farmers markets

  • unspoilt sandy beaches to walk or laze on

  • music

  • horse racing

  • cultural events, and many quaint villages and farm gates throughout the region to visit for rewarding experiences including delightful woodcrafts, handicrafts, ceramic ware and fresh farm produce.

Wonder as you wander….


Walking

The variety of walks in Prom Country is endless. Whatever your level of fitness or area of interest there is a walk that is right for you.

Begin with leisurely walks around our picturesque gardens and the surrounding tranquil countryside – perhaps up to the Foster North lookout, with a shortcut walking access just across the road from the entrance to our property.

Further a field is a variety of rail trails, suitable for walking, cycling or horse-riding by the energetic or not so energetic outdoor enthusiasts.

Wilsons Promontory National Park (“The Prom”) is a 50,000 hectare national park for everyone and for all seasons. It boasts fantastic beaches, cool fern gullies, great views, spectacular rock formations and abundant wildlife. More than 30 walks cover 130km of tracks of varying length and difficulty throughout the Prom. Many of the tracks interlink and hikers can camp at campsites along the way. There is a multitude of exciting ways to experience the Prom.

For those that love the water there are activities to suit all ages and abilities. Whether swimming, snorkelling or surfing there is plenty of action beyond the Prom’s shoreline.


Adventures for the more active

We have already mentioned some of the gentler pursuits. For the more adventurous and energetic, the list is equally endless: high peaks to climb, hill walking, running marathons or the annual Prom Country Challenge (Fun Run) at Toora, horse riding, sailing, windsurfing, parasailing, rock climbing, mountain biking, scenic flights, deep sea fishing or cruise Prom Country’s coastline and beautiful islands in a yacht.
