Cradled in the foothills of the Hoddle Ranges, South Gippsland

Cradled in the foothills of the Hoddle Ranges, Gippsland, lies a cosy nook to escape and find yourself amongst soft muzzles and tussled manes.

A unique stay at our converted Dairy Farm, located in the heart of Hoddle. Just a short drive to Wilsons Promontory National Park, surrounded by magnificent beaches and vibrant local towns.

Roll down the hill to Fish Creek for an artisan vibe or Foster for markets and a cidery stop on the return journey. Come and experience the best of South Gippsland!

The space

Stable & Nook is an eclectic space nestled in the heart of Hoddle. Our beds are complete with linen sheets and down quilts, to snuggle into on the cold winter nights or fling back on warmer summer evenings (yes ladies we know a top sheet is essential). An endless supply of rainwater means long hot showers are never a problem and a split system or wood look heater to stay cosy.

Gowns and blankets are supplied to cosy up on the butter soft leather lounge and gaze out at the rolling green hills or Netflix away the hours sipping on a Gurneys or local wine you picked up on your day out!!

Our bungalow offers a relaxed, cosy nook, perfect for a short getaway or longer sojourn. Plus, with the Great Southern Rail Trail on our doorstep, you can explore over 70kms of bike, hike, or horse-riding trails.

Guest access

Our cosy bungalow (they didn’t have Tardis as an option) is all yours. We are proudly an inclusive stay and all guests of any background or community are welcomed here into a safe space. The space around the bungalow is used by our horses to move about, but we are always aware of maintaining your privacy where possible.

Feel free to respectfully use the space around the bungalow and share a moment with our horses.

Other things to note

We stock a basic pantry due to our remote nature, which includes: Coffee Capsules (Nespresso), Coffee Bags, Black and Herbal Teas, Milk (please advise us prior to your stay which 'milk' you prefer) Salt, Pepper & Olive Oil, some dried herbs and spices, or prick fresh from our garden when in season.

You are working on country time now and most shops close early so we advise you stop at one of the general stores or supermarkets in Fish Creek or Foster on your way here or while out and about.

Amenities in your kitchenette include a coffee maker (pod) toaster, kettle, microwave, pancake maker/toaster, bar fridge, dishwasher, crockery, cutlery, knives, Chopping boards and serving dishes. If you are drawn to the amazing produce in the area we have a full kitchen in the group space just across the driveway that you are welcome to use to cook up a storm!!

If you ask nicely Tim can share with you where he sources, and how he prepares the 'Perfect' local grown, grass fed, Rib Eye...YUM

Please note, due to the nature of our business pets and young children will need to be supervised around our horses as they are very friendly. We ask that you only interact with our horses from outside their paddock (over the fence) as they run in a herd and can be overwhelmingly curious.

We are approximately 4.5kms to Fish Creek, 7kms to Foster, 15kms to Yanakie, 41kms to Tidal River. Roll down the hill to Fish Creek or Foster along the Great Southern Rail Trail.
