The Turquoise and Venetian suites include sitting areas which open out onto the gardens with views to Wilsons Promontory.

Location

The Church House in located on a 20-acre hilltop property, 20-minutes from the entrance to Wilsons Promontory, a walker’s paradise in Victoria’s East Gippsland region. The 270° views encompass Wilsons Promontory, the ocean and the verdant hills nearby. The local beaches Waratah Bay and Walkerville are just a short drive away, as is Victoria’s highest waterfall, Agnes Falls. 

Food and drink

Dinner is eaten communally with the other guests, and you can quite easily spend a whole evening sharing stories with Peter and Mary, whose paddock-to-plate cooking and extensive wine list offer a wonderful taste of the bountiful East Gippsland region, from beef and lamb, to their own extensive terraced vegetable gardens, orchards and an olive grove. All the fish and poultry products are freshly prepared and cooked on the premises, and they also produce their own pork cured meats and feature locally made cheeses in canapes and charcuterie platters.

There is an extensive cellar featuring local cool climate wines and robust wines from warmer regions.
