About this cottage rental

⭐️ You’ve discovered The Old School ⭐️

An idyllic and cozy haven perfect for those looking for a romantic escape, or solo travellers in need of a tranquil retreat. Nestled in the enchanting foothills of Hallston, The Old School offers a unique retreat along the legendary Grand Ridge Road in South Gippsland.

Only 30 mins to stunning beaches and 1 hour from Wilson's Prom.

Escape to this hidden gem and immerse yourself in the serene beauty of nature.

🏡🤍🌿

Summertime bliss only 1.45 hours from Melbourne...😊

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

After a day exploring lush walking trails or enjoying the coast just a short drive away, return to The Old School and unwind. Spin a vinyl record while you soak in a deep bath, cue up your favourite Disney+ show, rinse off beneath the soothing rain shower, stretch out in a luxurious king bed, and bring local flavours to life in your country kitchen.

Your kitchen awaits - coffee machine, air fryer, and all the essentials - plus complimentary fresh eggs, bread, coffee, honey, and more. Fire up the BBQ for summer feasts and indulge in effortless holiday dining.

If you decide to venture out, you can explore the quaint charm of local villages such as Mirboo North and Leongatha, only 15 minutes away, where local culture, cafes and hospitality beckon.

In under 30 minutes, you'll feel the sand between your toes on the stunning beaches in Inverloch.

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.

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

Whether it's the vibrant hues of summer, or the cozy embrace of winter, come and relax at the much-loved gateway to South Gippsland, The Old School at Grand Ridge House.

What an absolutely amazing place to stay for the night. Loved the warm fire on a chilly night along with the old record player, cozy bed, waking up to the beautiful birds singing and delicious fresh produce for brekkie. No detail has been spared; this is one of the best places we've stayed. A beautifully renovated old school, highly recommend!

What a beautiful place. Gorgeously renovated historical one room school house with so many provided inclusions. The fresh bread and eggs from the chickens were deilicious as well as the sweets and snacks that were provided. The facilities are immaculate and very comfortable. Would return in a heart beat!
