Stringybark Quarters: Queen Luxe Country Escape - Holiday Home
About
Set amongst the rolling foothills of Central Gippsland, Stringybark Quarters is a light-filled eco-stay on our 9-acre Greenstead. Alpacas graze close by, a peaceful pond rests in the distance, and on clear days the view stretches across the valley as far as the eye can see. Spend your days exploring bush trails, historic country towns, wineries and breweries, or enjoying Tinamba’s renowned dining. Visit Lake Glenmaggie, then return home as the land settles and the sky glows softly into evening.
Good to know
Expansive rear double sliding doors open the home to the landscape, drawing the valley into the main living space and onto the alfresco bar. Light shifts through the room as the day unfolds, the changing sky becoming part of the rhythm of the stay. Inside, two queen bedrooms, a generous open-plan living and dining area, full kitchen and study nook offer room to spread out, slow down, and settle into an easy, unhurried pace. Outside, the alfresco space with ceiling fan and outdoor bar invites long afternoons and lingering evenings, eyes resting on the land below. Mornings often begin with coffee and quiet, alpacas grazing nearby as the Greenstead gently wakes. Days are shaped by choice — a swim at Lake Glenmaggie, lunch in a country town, a wander through bush trails — or simply staying close, reading, resting, and letting time drift. Interiors carry a warm, stylish country feel, balancing thoughtful design with comfort and ease. Natural light, ceiling fans and considered details keep the space welcoming year-round. It’s the kind of place where conversations linger, meals stretch out, and evenings arrive without agenda. Stringybark sits within the original Greenstead — the landscape behind the weekly Greenstead Life podcast. Regeneration plantings, young food forests and open paddocks surround the home, with alpacas and miniature sheep moving quietly through the land as part of its evolving rhythm, shaped by seasons, care, and a slower way of living.
Other Details to Note
The Greenstead is a rural property where nature, animals and seasonal rhythms are part of the experience. Guests of all ages are welcome. Because the property includes unfenced dams, animals and other rural features, bookings that include children require a short child safety disclaimer, to be signed and returned within 48 hours of booking or prior to check-in. To care for the land and reduce fire risk, fires of any kind aren’t permitted, including BBQs, outdoor cooking equipment and candles / open flames. Swimming in the dam or pond isn’t permitted. Drone use isn’t permitted due to the impact on animals and neighbouring properties. Stringybark is designed for relaxed stays rather than gatherings. Parties, events and additional visitors aren’t accommodated. Smoking or vaping isn’t permitted indoors, and pets aren’t able to be accommodated.
