Immerse yourself into the 'Valley of Peace' and stay at the historic Kongwak Butter Factory - repurposed into spacious accommodation with space for group getaways and entertaining.
Situated on a 39 acre site only 1 hr 45 from Melbourne, with rolling green farming hills as a backdrop and curtain of trees hugging the Foster Creek around the large open lawn of the backyard in the foreground, you can relax, unwind, and spend quality time with friends and family.
Opposite the famous Kongwak Market on Sundays, the Butter Factory is a short walk to Pioneers Reserve for a short, but steep local hike, or a 10-minute drive to Inverloch beaches. Kongwak is in South Gippsland and a stones-throw away from Venus Bay, Wilson's Prom, Kilcunda, Philip Island, Korumburra, Loch, and many more beautiful locations around the area.
Enjoy the use of the large, open living spaces, read about the history of Kongwak in the swing chair, a game of table tennis or shuffle board, unwind and relax in the 9-person outdoor spa soaking in nature, cook up a pizza oven feast or BBQ, push your little one on the swing out the back, or sit on the park bench looking back at the lawn and creeping vines over the old factory buildings.
Whether you're keen on a couple's retreat, getting a group of friends away from the hustle and bustle, or a family holiday, we'd love for you to experience this special location and experience for yourself!
We can also coordinate local experiences - let us know if you would like to explore these options.

The most amazing accommodation for a decent sized group. Loved the amount of space, comfort and amenities including games and outdoor pizza oven, not to mention the garden and creek, as well as Sunday... market. Can't recommend this place enough. Gemma was a great hist with promot.and clear communication. Would certainly go back. Highly recommended.

This is a fantastic property provided by very caring and proud hosts. Firewood was topped up, the spa freshly cleaned and the house spotless when we arrived. When we reported a dishwasher that was out... of action the hosts were very accomodating and communicative.
We took two pets and tried to abide by the pet rules but the hosts found mess that the pets had caused. In a situation that could have been awkward we had constructive communications with the hosts and were able to resolve what could have been an issue.
This is a magical property that kids and adults can enjoy in so many different ways in a very beautiful part of Australia. Highly recommend.

What a fantastic place for a weekend away with our pups! The house is wonderfully spacious yet still cosy and warm - perfect for a winter getaway. We loved exploring the beautiful Gippsland countrysid...e and its many foodie delights, then returning to curl up by the fire with the spoils of the day. Highly recommended, with just one caveat: we’re tempted to keep this place a secret so we can easily come back!

We have three young children and we're very much into outdoors, nature, hikes, running trails and some adventure too!
Absolutely love sitting by a fire, swimming in a local body of water or relaxing in a spa. We adore old, unique, rustic buildings and unique designs!

Kongwak Market
This weekly Sunday market is where you will find plants, books, collectables, and retro, vintage and second-hand items. Enjoy live music performed by locals. Bring a gold coin donation!
Kongwak Secret Garden
You gotta see it to believe it. A true wonderland found in the heart of the Kongwak Market.
Harman Wines
With a thirst that needed quenching, we headed to Harman Wines. Taste testing wines, wood-fired pizzas, and the scenic surrounds, the winery and vineyard was the ideal way to spend the arvo in the sunshine.
Enjoying Local Coffee
We woke up early and drove to explore a local cafe in Inverloch.

Local Wines
Nearby Inverloch offers varieties of local wines. Dirty Three Wines or The Wine Farm are favourites of the region.

Radovick Street Mural
Found while looking for a parking spot. A special delight in the beautiful town of Korumburra by talented street artists, Ghostpatrol and Bonsai.
