Welcome to
The Ridge House,
your country home
in West Gippsland
The Ridge House is a carefully restored country retreat on 50 acres of private bushland in West Gippsland, 90 minutes from Melbourne.
Couples come for the quiet. Families and friends come for the space.
4 bedrooms hosting up to 8 guests, and the whole property is privately yours either way. Dog-friendly.
Stay in or venture out
Some guests never leave the property.
Others barely sit still.
The best part is knowing you don't have to choose.
Curl up and stay put
Light the fire, cook beautiful meals together, linger around the table long after dinner, wander down to Loggers Lookout as the valley softens into evening, and wake to birdsong drifting through the open windows. Birthdays have been celebrated here. Marriage proposals have happened here. Friends have laughed late into the night, and families have rediscovered how good it feels to simply spend time together.
Or explore Gippsland.
Spend the day hiking through mountain ash forests, chasing waterfalls, exploring country villages, lingering over long lunches at award-winning restaurants and wineries, or spending the day at Mount Baw Baw or exploring the beaches of South Gippsland. Then come home, kick off your boots, pour a glass of local wine, and watch the last light settle across the valley
Micro-wedding, elopements, and events.

"There is a feeling that you have the whole valley to yourself and perched above it all is a private lookout, one of the most enchanting features of any property I have ever stayed in. The view is spectacular, allowing you to feel at one with the bush and bird life. Together with the beauty of the surrounds the property is a rare fine and was perfect for our needs. We will be returning".

"The perfect hideaway to celebrate a very special occasion. The location was stunning, the house was beautiful and so well appointed, Kristy thought of everything and we wanted for absolutely nothing. On a clear night you could see the Milky Way and constellations across the sky. Left a little piece of my heart on the Logger’s Lookout."
