Pet-friendly
This enchanting three bedroom, two bathroom cottage, adorned with an intricate stonemason frontage, sits on what was once the Porepunkah timber mill in 1915.

Cottage Two pays homage to its surroundings past whilst perfectly complementing its neighboring sister cottage.

Tucked beneath the Mount Buffalo cottage two invites guests to experience the simple beauty of life in the High Country.

Here, days are shaped by nature and the seasons. Mornings begin slowly, afternoons are spent exploring the rivers, trails and vineyards of the Alpine Valley, and evenings unfold over shared meals and meaningful conversation.

Warm, welcoming and thoughtfully designed, the cottage provides a comfortable base from which to discover the region, while offering every reason to stay put. Surrounded by fresh mountain air and the quite charm of Porepunkah, it's a place where memories are made without effort.

We had a lovely weekend at The Tradesman’s Cottage. The cottage was beautifully presented, clean and a lot of thoughtful touches throughout. The property is in an ideal location for the exploring the surrounding area and only a short walk to the pub and cafe.

Such a cute little cottage — we absolutely loved our stay here. The interior design was done so beautifully and made the whole place feel warm and cozy from the moment we walked in. The fireplace was ...perfect for the chilly evenings, and the cottage had all the facilities and little touches you could need for a comfortable stay. To top it all off, the house is located on a beautiful street filled with autumn leaves, which made the whole experience feel even more magical. Would definitely love to come back again.

I’m Holly-Louise, the founder of HAUS and HEIM Accommodation. I take great pride in curating a collection of unique homes across the High Country — places with character, a sense of place and those little details that make you want to stay a little longer. I believe where you stay is just as important as where you go. For me, a great stay is about more than simply having somewhere beautiful to sleep; it’s about creating a feeling and an experience that stays with you. From thoughtful interiors to sharing the best of the region, I’m passionate about creating stays that feel effortless, memorable and worth coming back to. Because wherever you stay, can make all the difference.

Dinner At Porepunkah Pub

Porepunka pub is a vibe! It's a fantastic local pub that is clearly loved by it's locals, with a great outdoor area out the front for a bev or two. The food was great as expected, and the locals were super friendly and welcoming, even Mr Pickles got lots of pats and attention.

Exploring Braithwaites Plantation

On the way to Bright, you can stop by Braithwaites Plantation for a forest walk, a photography mission or an excuse to smell the fresh air. It's a small, pine forest that is perfectly aligned with Mount Buffalo. I never thought it could be so amazingly captured by a drone flight.

Canyon Walk

Starting from Howitt Park head towards the Star Road Bridge. The track on the northern bank of the Ovens River has steep steps. Cross either of the suspension bridges to create a short or long loop. This walk takes you past a small canyon carved by the Ovens River and water races dug by early miners. Watch for birdlife and wild flowers especially in spring.
