We’re thrilled to be recognized, and, as Lucy from Lucinda Estate pointed out on our Facebook page, we’re one of the more attractively priced getaways, too.

From the review:

This is a place to relax. Pour a drink, put on some music and lounge on one of the very comfortable sofas (or on the deck in fine weather), then simply admire the view across Corner Inlet or, at dusk, watch kangaroos emerge from the scrub to feed.

Once refreshed, venture further; it’s just a few minutes to the water’s edge, and a left turn at the boat ramp leads to Duck Point – perfect for bird- watching and admiring Wilsons Promontory in the distance.

The review

The new, luxury, self-contained accommodation at Limosa Rise has already won regional and state awards. Not surprising, given the contemporary design of the three tastefully-appointed cottages with their full-length glass windows taking full advantage of sweeping views across Corner Inlet.

The review by Simon St John reads:

The view across Corner Inlet to Wilsons Promontory is a kaleidoscope of colour, and few places offer a better vantage point than one of Limosa Rise’s contemporary villas. Think of a hexagon with glass walls looking seaward and you have the studio in a nutshell; add two bedrooms to the hexagon and it describes the larger villas. In any case, the views, light, space and colours are mesmerising.

The property sits about five minutes from the Prom National Park and there are nearby beaches, wineries and all sorts of touring opportunities. But once you enter the living area clad in cool blues, light tans and polished timber boards and relax on the wide deck (with its seats and barbecue), there’s a good chance you’ll want to stay put. And don’t worry if the weather is cool – the wood heater will keep you toasty warm.

Limosa Rise is also fantastic for cooks – the kitchen is fully equipped, nearby Foster has all the stores you need and has excellent country providores including a seafood supplier. Walk it all off at the Prom, or just sit back and enjoy the view.

The Gippsland Tourism Sector was inspired last night by passionate and insightful speeches from renowned restaurateur Dur-e’ Dara and Tourism Victoria Director Geoffrey Conaghan at the Gippsland Tourism Awards hosted by Bis Cucina in Sale.

Ms Kaye Brown from Springbank B&B, a finalist in the Deluxe Accommodation Category, summed it up for many:’It was enjoyable, refreshing, encouraging, and great to see and meet the people behind the businesses in Gippsland – a huge network demonstrating dedication and perseverance and a willingness to share something in the face of adversity.
