Where the Morning Can Wait
Adventure in Clifton Creek, Gippsland, VIC, AU
With green paddocks stretching into the distance and an outdoor bath waiting on the deck, Luxe&Ivy made it easy to slow down. Dad and I settled in, enjoying the countryside views from the open living area.
Morning began with sunrise photos and a soak in the outdoor bath, followed by coffee on the balcony. Bacon and eggs on the barbecue and bread all supplied by the hosts, made for an unhurried breakfast.
We explored the Bruthen Walking Trails and Deep Creek Old Bridge, then stopped at Tambo Valley Honey before returning for a platter on the deck and a relaxed evening.
Before heading back to the big smoke, we visited Mitchell River National Park, discovering the Den of Nargun and wandered beside the river. Between peaceful mornings and exploring with Dad, I left feeling refreshed and grateful for time away together.

Things We Did
- Waterfall
- Café
- Hike
- Walk
Following the trail beneath the trees, we discovered mossy rocks and the secluded Den of Nargun tucked into the gully.
Honey tasting, a jar to take home and lunch at the in-house café made for a relaxed stop in Bruthen.
From Bluff Lookout, we followed the Den of Nargun loop down to the mighty Mitchell River, even spotting a wallaby along the way.
We wandered beneath tall trees along the Bruthen Walking Trails, slowing down to enjoy the bush and take photos.
Walking beneath the weathered timber bridge, we paused to appreciate its towering supports and the greenery growing around them.
