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.

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.
