"There’s a lovely sense of history and nature at Lake House. Lush bushland surrounds the property and bird call is the soundtrack. Chef Alla Wolf-Tasker and her artist husband Allan built a restaurant here three decades ago. They added a few rooms, so people could enjoy a couple of glasses of wine and not have to drive back to Melbourne, then expanded the accommodation options as the restaurant’s popularity flourished. New waterfront studios and another pool opened in September 2018. If you’re ready to eat fine food, chill out in a treetop spa, wander through the forest, and feel cosseted at every turn, then—yes—a couple of nights at Lake House is most definitely worth it." - Carrie Hutchinson
