The cabin was amazing and just what the doctor ordered. I would recommend a stay at Stringers Cottage to any and all.

Dianne Australia

The secluded and quiet location with a beautiful view of the valley, the coziness of the cottage.

Tim Australia

Loved the atmosphere of the town. The locals were very easy to talk to and very knowledgeable about there little piece of paradise

Happy Australia

Very quaint historic cottage. We were originally concerned that the cottage was quite close to the main road, however it was still incredibly peaceful even with all the windows open at night. It was warm when we stayed but I think it would be lovely in winter with the fireplace in the bedroom.

Lesley Australia

The quiet, the position and view. It was well-equipped.

Hilary Australia

the serenity and the step back in time atmosphere. The cottage was all you need to escape from a busy life style. Stringer's Cottage gave you an experience of a life long ago lived where all you needed was the necessaries to be comfortable in life.

Craig Australia

We loved our stay. The view was gorgeous, cosy little cottage with a comfortable bed and the fireplace was amazing for the cold nights. We especially loved hearing the rain on the tin roof all night. PS if you’re with Telstra you’ll have reception no worries, due to the new tower in the town.

Felicity Australia

Very quaint and cosy cottage, perfect for a couple. Wonderful location right above historic tourist railway. Very comfortable and thoughtful design. Insect screens provided, which were much needed.

Grateful Australia

Lovely quaint cottage in a little piece of history. Entry details given by instructions well before the visit. Turning up in daylight would be advisable, if not make sure you have a good torch.

Anna

Stringer’s Cottage is named after Edward “Ned” Stringer. He was one of a group of prospectors who had been exploring in creeks flowing into the Thomson River valley and found gold sometime during late December 1862 or early January 1863. In 1863 a claim was pegged out & former convict Edward Randel, registered it at the outpost town of Bald Hills under his assumed name, Edward “Ned” Stringer. Walhalla became one of the world’s richest gold mines with over 13 tonnes of gold produced

I grew up in Gippsland and visited Walhalla as a child when it was an uninhabited ghost town full of derelict properties. I returned as an adult with my own children to find a town revitalised and a steam train my kids and I fell in love with.

Enjoy bushwalks, ride on the steam train and visit the gold mine. Don't expect any fancy shops -there's one pub, a couple of cafes and not much else. Fill up with petrol before you arrive, and stock up on groceries as there is nowhere to buy these in town. It's back to basics and that's why people love it.
