Had an amazing stay with Paula, her attention to detail really stands out!! 10/10

Arriving at the property the instructions were very clear and the key was easy to find. Walking inside we were immediately blown away by Paula’s attention to detail and commitment to ensuring a cozy cottage experience. Welcomed by fresh local produce and a fireplace ready to light was beautiful. The aesthetic of the cottage is unbeatable and felt incredibly welcoming. We will definitely be returning.

About the host

Hosted by Paula Mountford-Hall

Host profile image
Welcome to 'Our Metung Stays'! My name is Paula and I am thrilled to be your host. I live in Melbourne with my husband, three young adults, and our two beloved dogs. Metung and the Gippsland Lakes region hold a special place in our hearts, which is why we decided to build our beautiful Cabin and Cottage to share with friends, family, and guests like you.

Our goal was to create comfortable homes that allow you to truly relax in nature and soak up the stunning surroundings, whether you are visiting in the summer or winter. You can curl up in a warm blanket in the window seat of the master bedroom at Lakeview Retreat Metung and watch the water change colors as boats pass by, or you can cozy up in front of the fire at Mountford Cottage. Both homes offer a unique experience that will make your stay unforgettable.

We believe our homes tie in well with the new Metung Hot Springs experience, which opened in November 2022. We will soon be offering packages that include access to the hot springs, so ask us for more information.

We are committed to providing our guests with the best possible experience during their stay. Whether you need recommendations for local restaurants or tips on the best places to explore in the area, we are always here to help. We hope you enjoy your stay at 'Our Metung Stays' and create unforgettable memories.
