Luxury Countryside Escape: Fireside Bath, King Bed

⭐️ A romantic escape for couples, and a peaceful, cosy haven for solo travellers, The Old School is your own private sanctuary, with the perfect blend of old world charm and modern comforts ⭐️

Escape to the enchanting foothills of Hallston, a hidden gem nestled along the legendary Grand Ridge Road in South Gippsland.

🏡🤍🌿

Just 1.45 hours from Melbourne.

Surrounded by a rambling mix of deciduous and native gardens, this restored and reimagined 1920s schoolhouse invites you into a world of timeless romance and rural elegance.

Indulge in a fireside bath, delight under a copper rain shower, play a vinyl melody, Netflix and chill, or take advantage of the kitchen for culinary wonders.

Fancy a bit of work-from-paradise? We got you, with super-fast complimentary Wifi, printing and scanning services, and plenty of work space.

Explore the quaint charm of local villages Mirboo North and Leongatha, only 15 minutes away, where local culture, cafes and hospitality beckon.

Venture out, and in just 30 minutes, you'll feel the sand between your toes at Inverloch beach.

There's loads to explore in the area. Meeniyan is great for live bands & food. Loch is a hidden countryside gem.

And for the nature enthusiasts, there are plenty of local walks and bush trails to explore, including The Great Southern Railway walking track which starts in Leongatha and is suitable for all levels.

The world famous Wilsons Promontory National Park is only a scenic 1 hour drive away - a pristine wilderness that adds a whole other layer of magic to your visit to The Old School.

Whether it's the vibrant hues of summer, or the cozy embrace of winter, come and experience South Gippsland in all its glory.
