Chestnuthill Country Retreat

Set high on 8 acres overlooking the Tambo river at the gateway to Metung on the Gippsland Lakes, Chestnut Hill is a 4 1/2 star multi award winning Traditional Bed & Breakfast & self contained accommodation exclusively for Adults.

Ideally positioned along the Sydney/ Melbourne Coastal drive in Eastern Victoria and only 4.5hrs from Canberra, the perfect place to break your journey or escape for a day or two...or maybe three and experience the magic of the Gippsland Lakes.

Traditional means wandering in to breakfast, sitting leisurely reading the morning papers while your hosts serve a delicious three course breakfast, combining fresh local produce with mouth watering recipes.

Enjoy watching the yachts, motor cruisers, Pelicans and if you're lucky Dolphin's at play in the river below while drinking your espresso or freshly brewed tea. Chestnut Hill is exclusively for adults and combines grand style with a contemporary edge, antique and modern furnishings. Queen size bedrooms have private verandas where you can relax & put your feet up or read that book you've been promising yourself.

Chesters Studio & Pandora's Chalet are our one & two bedroom self contained studio's, also positioned within the 8 acres and a 'stones throw' from the main house, this may suit your desire for peace, privacy and the facilities to 'do your own thing'. With spa bath's positioned next to the main bedrooms and outlooks to the stars and river below, the stress of the day will just dissolve into the bubbles of the spa.

A variety of packages are available to set the mood for your visit.

East Gippsland is Naturally Magic, with a vast array of flora & fauna experiences, even for the most discerning of travellers. Visit Koala's in their natural habitat on Raymond Island, view the Sea Eagles & Superior Fairy Wrens while you're eating breakfast!
