About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The Bower - located at the base of Mt Buller.

Nestled amongst the trees of Merrijig our mountain cottage is perfectly suited to families looking for a secluded, quiet and ambient escape.

Sleeping eight (8) people all three (3) bedrooms are provided with linen. Two bedrooms have queen sized beds and one with a queen bed & single bunk, main bathroom plus an additional toilet downstairs, a full kitchen and large dining table, a flat screen TV, CD player, drying room and BBQ provide you with a comfortable yet cosy country experience.

All bedrooms have panel heating and there is a euro wood fireplace and sitting areas that take you out and onto a spacious deck high amongst the tree line.

A bright and sunny open plan home with a quaint backyard with an abundance of wildlife visiting is ideal for your next country holiday. The deer graze in the garden in the afternoon and the king parrots enjoy a snack on the deck most mornings. Plenty of parking for groups and only a short 5-minute drive to the gates of Mt Buller.

The Bower - a base for snow trips to Mt Buller or enjoy the many outdoor activities and stunning scenery the High Country and Mansfield has to offer year-round.

Absolutely fabulous house.

We love staying off mountain (Buller). This place has the perfect look and feel. So cosy and warm but we will be back all seasons. If you are after a ‘real’ lodge this is for you.
