This retreat, aptly named for its history as a 1920s schoolhouse, is a step back in time that you will never want to come back from. Cosy doesn't even begin to cover it. 
Immerse in a 1920s schoolhouse surrounded by lush gardens. Enjoy fireside baths, vinyl melodies, and culinary wonders, work amenities available, nearby villages await exploration, with beaches within 30 minutes AccommodationNestled in the green hills of Hallston, The Old School is a retreat away from the grind of daily life. With a fireplace and free-standing bath, guests can have a long soak with a good book or fall asleep in front of the fire while flicking through the many streaming services on offer. And if bathing isn't your style, relax under the rain shower and then fall into the plush King bed. The signature touch of the owners can be found in every nook and cranny of this place. The tasteful styling is in keeping with the property's heritage charm; no detail is overlooked. There's a full kitchen where guests can prepare their own meals, but a complimentary breakfast is provided. We're talking farm eggs, fresh bread, muesli, honey and more. While anyone can enjoy the charms of this luxurious accommodation, it's particularly perfect for those who want to block out distractions and get some work done - we're looking at you, burgeoning writers. Explore nearbyWe wouldn't blame you if you didn't want to leave the cabin during your stay, but there is so much to enjoy around Hallston. If you fancy a walk, there are oodles of trails to choose from. Look for fairies in the green glades of Mount Worth State Park, cycle across the hills on the South Gippsland Rail Trail or wind your way beneath towering trees on the Lyrebird Forest Walk. Superb dining at Messmates (Warragul) is only a stone's throw away, and worth the short drive for the European-leaning menu that celebrates local produce. Enjoy the cafe culture in nearby Mirboo North, where Lamezleighs Coffee House serves next-level lunches and ST. ALi coffee. Just 15 minutes away you'll find Leongatha, humming with cafes, pubs, restaurants and shops to browse. Within a few short clicks of the odometer, you can have a tipple at local wineries, feel sand between your toes in Inverloch, or explore the legion of local markets (Leongatha Rail Trail Market, Mirboo North Market, Kongwak Market, Koonwarra Market, Inverloch Farmers Market to name a few).
