Nippards Nature Cottage

A really beautiful place to stay to get away from it all. So peaceful with beautiful views of the hilly green countryside. Not far to travel to Foster and nearby gorgeous beaches including Waratah Bay. The house has everything you need for a great stay!

Peaceful family weekend

Beautiful property and location, had everything we needed, easy to access and enjoy. We loved the cosy fire, the tranquil surrounds for our morning coffee on the veranda, and being able to use the property as our home base while exploring the wider area. Would stay again in a heartbeat.

Nice house for a family gateway

The property was very nicely set for our arrival. Only an hour away from Wilson promontory but away from the crowed, it is the perfect spot for a family gateway for the week end.

Nature at its best

Nippards Nature Cottage is in an idyllic location. Set in a steep valley with wonderful woodland vistas. The cottage is well equipped and very comfortable. It made a great base from which to explore Wilsons Promontory.

Country Relaxation

A wonderfully relaxed country stay for our family in a welcoming farm house. There was everything we needed and we wished we stayed longer. Great location. Highlight was absolutely sitting on the verandah watching the sun go down over the valley and rolling hills. Thank you for a great stay! Definitely recommend.

Idyllic setting in beautiful country house

Set in a valley amidst rolling green hills and tall gums, quiet and peaceful. Perfect for a restful getaway, the house has three large bedrooms and two ample living spaces. In the evenings, we sat on the veranda under the jewel lite sky, drinking Gippsland artisan cheeses and wines. Heaven on earth.

We had lovely stay at Nippards Nature cottage. Even with 4 adults, two children (one a toddler) and our dog there was plenty of space. So quiet and relaxing. Weather was good to us so we enjoyed the views and garden. Being able to close a door between the bedrooms and the living area was very practical. Kitchen had all the things we needed. Kids enjoyed running around the verandah and the swing. All the blankets on the couches were great for snuggling the cold mornings. We didn’t use the wood fire due to toddler but it would have been very cosy. Highly recommend.
