Flinders Island Retreat at Cooma House

Flinders Island Retreat at Cooma House is a hosted guesthouse experience - great for groups of family, friends and acquaintances with five double rooms, one of which is all access and daily meals available using Island produce - paddock to plate - with fresh picked garden herbs. Come down for air! Each room has an en-suite, separate toilet, smart TV, heating, cooling, with quality bedding on either kings, queens or splits and small break-out spaces tucked around the house. Think Auberge or Trattoria. Slow down, walk the labyrinth, watch the clouds and count your steps to the shore. We have four and a half hectares on the doorstep of the National Park. Enjoy views through tall trees to the sea. Petrafaction Bay is a stroll down the drive. Original artworks feature in all rooms. There's shelves of contemporary fiction - with Nespresso and leaf teas set out. Wendy offers cooking schools and other packages - intimate weddings too. It's six degrees warmer in winter than Melbourne staying at Flinders Island's first settlement. "This place is unique - so much more friendly and homely than staying in traditional hotels/motels. We feel part of the family ... (it has) ambience and atmosphere."...
