News The Wool House: A Farm Stay Escape
If you are after a farm stay with a Scandi-chic twist, then look no further than The Wool House in Forge Creek, lapping at the edge of the Gippsland Lakes in East Gippsland.
You’ll be staying on a working sheep farm in your stylish studio apartment, drinking in your relaxing escape. We’re talking a bath to melt into, floor to ceiling windows so you can get lost in the vistas, and hardwood floors that will make any interior designer weep.
Located at Forge Creek, near Paynesville on the stunning Gippsland Lakes, this glorious destination boasts views across charming countryside and sparkling waters. What makes this place so special is its seclusion from the outside world.
The Wool House Accommodation
When you hear ‘farm stay’, a dreamy studio with natural light and coffee-toned wood might not be the first thing that comes to mind. The Wool House is an elegant option for those who want to escape the hustle of urban Melbourne for the tranquility of East Gippsland. Kick back in the living room and admire your view of the lake or have a long soak in the spacious bathtub.
Guests are treated to a mouthwatering welcome pack that includes farm-fresh lamb, a bottle of Lightfoot wine, Picnic Point Sparkling Apple juice, Nicholson Farm coffee and Tambo Valley Honey. All these tasty treats are proudly grown and made in East Gippsland.
If the weather’s right, light the firepit outside and cuddle up while the sun sets. It’s the perfect spot for an al fresco dinner – there’s even a BBQ, if you’re so inclined. Follow it up with a deep sleep in the king-sized bed, equipped with the softest linens for a well-earned rest.
The Property
Just down the hill from the studio you will find a private jetty, where you can moor your boat or kayak. This is an excellent option for the sporty folks among us. You are encouraged to bring your pushbikes or watercrafts to enjoy the natural landscape around you.
The farm location is Forge Creek Lamb, a well-established ‘paddock to plate’ business. You'll see woolly sheep roaming about the property and hear the gentle maaaa-ing of lambs.
