Imagine waking to the gentle sound of horses grazing outside your window.
The morning sun spills across rolling green hills as you wrap your hands around a warm coffee and breathe in fresh country air. There are no crowds, no deadlines, no rush—just birdsong, wide open spaces and the rare feeling that, for a little while, the world has slowed down.
Welcome to Stable & Nook.
Hidden in the heart of South Gippsland, our farm stay is a place where comfort meets nature. Spend your days exploring Wilsons Promontory, wandering through the galleries and cafés of Fish Creek, cycling the Great Southern Rail Trail or discovering local wineries and hidden beaches. Then return to your own peaceful sanctuary to soak beneath a sky full of stars, curl up in luxurious linen, and let the quiet work its magic.
Our guests often tell us it’s the little things they remember most—the horses wandering over to say hello, homemade breakfast provisions, thoughtful touches, the incredibly comfortable bed, and that deep sense of calm that’s so hard to find in everyday life.
Some come looking for adventure. Others come simply to rest.
Almost everyone leaves saying the same thing…
“We wish we’d booked longer.
