Stunning and Super Comfortable! Highly Recommended!

This is an immaculate property, stocked with all the essentials and more, and hosted by the wonderful and very friendly Christine. My partner and I had two very comfortable nights here - the suite was very tastefully presented and super spacious with a luxurious king bed, both reverse cycle air conditioning and separate heater, beautiful stained-glass windows and an enormous bathroom with a decadent bath-tub. Christine made the most delicious breakfasts each day which we enjoyed in the sunroom overlooking the garden. Highly recommended for people seeking an escape from the city. We will be back! Thank you again Christine.

Pure Delight

The house and gardens of the Howlong Old Post Office are charming and beautiful, and our king sized suite was divine. This went right down to the details of the room which had all we could ask for, eg coffee and a selection of teas, fluffy bathrobes and extra pillows, as well as additional unexpected surprises such as the beautiful flowers, a selection of 3 different home-made biscuits and the wide range of bath salts to choose from for our spa bath. Our stay also came with a cheese board, sparkling wine in abundance, a brilliant breakfast each morning and a warm, inviting, friendly and delightful host in Christine. One cannot go past this exceptional accommodation when staying in this area. Sandor and Claudia

We enjoyed our stay so much we booked in for our anniversary next year. Highly recommended.

About the host

Hosted by Christine

After a busy life in the city, working and raising two beautiful boys, I fell in love with this amazing old building and decided to move back to the country, to be closer to family. I was lucky enough to be able to purchase this charming property, surrounded by magnificent gardens, for my home. However it soon became apparent, that it was much too large for one person and seemed a waste not to share it with others. I set about separating the south suite, from the rest of the original house, to provide a private and secluded space to be enjoyed by others.

Why they chose this property

Eat. Drink. Stay. Play. Nestled in the famous Rutherglen wine and golfing region, bordering the Murray River the historic Old Howlong Post Office offers the perfect couples getaway. Morris and Gehrig wineries established in 1859 are less than 6kms and are two of the oldest wineries in the area and are the gateway to another 17 wineries in nearby Rutherglen. You will be spoilt for choice, when it comes to good local food and wine. Linger at cellar door restaurants like
“The Pavilion” at Bullers, Jones Winery & Restaurant, “Tuileries” at De Bortoli, and “The Terrace” & "Bonnie" at nearby All Saints Estate in Wahgunyah, "Footsteps" at Cofields Winery, just to mention a few.
If you a looking for a more casual dining experience, there are some great cafes and country pubs in the area. Howlong is noted for its excellent golf course and club house. There are two local hotels operating five nights and offer a more relaxed country environment, if you are just travelling through. Albury airport is only 30 minutes away.
