Pet-friendly
Character filled rustic Miners Cottage built in the late 1800's - decorated with lots of lovely Middle eastern rugs, mid century and antique furnishing's, as well as original painting's and artwork.

Has record player and great vinyl collection, and - as well as library wall in the main living area with a huge array of great current and classic fiction, design / art magazines and reference books.

The big country style kitchen is fantastic to cook in, you can opt to use the slow combustion Rayburn wood burning stove for slow food and delicious homemade pizza's. Outdoor fires can be enjoyed in a half gallon drum on the large bush block, which is very secluded and securely fenced for those wanting to bring their beloved pets.

Located in the charming town of Stawell and 15/20 min drive to Halls Gap and the wonders of Gariwerd / Grampians National Park. Cottage is light filled, quiet and super cosy.

I love being in nature - particularly the pristine bush beauty of the Wimmera region and wonders of Gariwerd National Park. I enjoy Contemporary Art, camping, reading, cooking and collecting local vintage homewares and textiles.

Bunjil Shelter

Hearing of these paintings and the story of Bunjil had me intrigued to learn more and see the painting for myself. This is the only known painting of Bunjil, (and his 2 dingos) Bunjil is said to do no harm. The walk is pretty easy and there's lots of boulders to explore.

Bests Great Western Winery

We stopped in to the historic Best's Winery to sample the local wines and eat some cheese (the sparkling shiraz is a must!). Then we took the walking tour of the old underground cellar.

Swimming At Lake Fyans

Lake Fyans lies at the base of the Grampians and has the best views of the mountains! We found a secluded beach and went for a swim in the warm water. We even pulled out out inflatable boats and paddled out to the reeds.

We continued on down the road from the cottage to Pomonal Estate to try their wine & Beer. The Pale Ale is my favourite!

Dinner At Wild Misty Mountains Hotel

We ate South American style BBQ from locally sourced produce while watching the sun set over the Grampians at the Wild Misty Mountains Hotel. After dark, we sat inside by the warm fire and drank home-infused spirits with fresh juice.
