Their curious, friendly cows help to keep the grass down at Country House Retreat, and welcome new visitors.

Day tripping in East Gippsland.

Today we visited Nunniong Plains, traveling back via Timbarra river, pictured, for a spot of fly fishing.

The beautiful scenery made up for the lack of rod action. 🤷‍♀️

📍Timbarra River, 30 km south of Buchan (approx 1 hour drive from Nungurner)

The mornings might be a little cooler, but the sunrise puts on enough of a show to get us out of bed all the same!

Time away is all the more enjoyable when you don't have to cook.

Free up some mental load and treat yourself to some ready made meals from Red Bucket Delicacies.

From hand made pastas to delicious authentic pizzas, this food is made, and wrapped, with love.

Grab yours at the Swan Reach store, Metung market (held monthly), or order in advance and get it delivered to your door!

Some lovely feedback from recent guests, who used our property as a base for a weekend catch up - for friends traveling from Melbourne and Bateman's Bay.

Whilst the petrol costs are blowing the budget to bits, group gatherings make for economical holidays, especially when you can share the costs between 10 people.

If you're still looking for a plan for the remaining school holidays, why not hook up with another family group or two and book a little getaway.

**EASTER FUEL UPDATE**

Our local traders are reporting visitors to East Gippsland are increasingly concerned about fuel availability, and that they are fearful they wouldn’t be able to get fuel to return home.
As of Monday March 30/3, there are 40+ service stations between Lakes Entrance and Melbourne, and reportedly THEY ALL HAVE FUEL!!!!

Yes it’s expensive, but it’s our understanding that all fuel deliveries are still being delivered as scheduled, and there’s been no indication from any of our major distributors that this will change any time soon.

PLEASE! If you were thinking of coming to East Gippsland over the Easter break, and were worried about getting home, don’t be!!
Our local visitor economy depends heavily on our Easter trade to carry our businesses through the quieter months of winter. From Café’s, restaurants, pubs, clubs and bakeries, to tour operators, visitor experience providers and events, to caravan parks, hotels and motels, to the service industries that clean and maintain our accommodation providers.

We all rely on you guys turning up!!!
And we’d love to see you these Easter school holidays!!!
