Metung is one of the prettiest villages in Australia.  Positioned on a small spit of land, it sits on Bancroft Bay, with Lake King at its back.  It is a photographers paradise, a natural environmental home to amazing birdlife, dolphins and fish and a wide variety of native animals.

The Gippsland Lakes also offers sailing, boating and fishing in sheltered inland waterways free from rocks, reefs and tides.  Even if you don't sail or have a boat licence you can hire a boat locally and explore these safe waters.  

We love the uniqueness of this beautiful lakehouse, a three-storey weatherboard cottage painted a striking Ironstone Blue with white trim, reminiscent of the houses in the Hamptons. 

We spend the time in the cosy lounge in winter with the log fire and a good book. In the morning we take our dogs for a walk through the garden and a private walkway through native bushland (the property is on 1 acre) to the lake and Cantrills Jetty. Here we through a tennis ball into the water for the dogs to swim out to while sitting on the small stretch of the beach watching the boats coming in and out of Chinamans Creek.

In the afternoon we take a fishing rod (you will find a couple together with fishing tackle in the property for your pleasure) and wander down the pathway again to the Jetty to catch something for dinner (you will need a fishing licence but you can pick that up from Riviera Nautic too). Picnic on the beach before walking back the few minutes home to The Oar House.

For the best lunch or dinner, we head to the Metung Hotel (locally known as the Pub) and always book a table with a view.  Its always bustling so you have to book.  For breakfast, we eat at Bancroft Bites or we head into Lakes Entrance and buy fresh prawns off the boats and come back and sit outside undercover with local wine and feast.

What fun! a new house to visit that lets four-legged friends like me sleep inside.

Yay! a garden and courtyard with fences to keep me safe (although if you are a tiny tacker then you might fit under the front fence which has big gaps, you need mum and dad to keep an eye on you then).  Love the trees, bushes and the walking tracks the wombats have made, there are lots of interesting smells.  Are those possums in the trees?
