Cute and quaint country cottage in the heart of Omeo Victoria.

Cute and quaint little two bedroom cottage with a great view and large secure backyard. Quiet location, close to local shops, amenities and walking tracks, stones throw from the iconic Golden Age motel who serve a great meal, as well as a cold beer or wine. Perfect for a family or couple, your pets are also welcome. Also suitable for people passing through town for work or anyone wanting somewhere cosy to stay on the way to the ski fields, which are approximately 40 kms away.
The house and yard is all yours to enjoy. The main heater is powerful for cold winter nights (during winter it's recommended that you turn it on early to give the house a chance to heat up), and the aircon is awesome during blistering summer days. Of course nothing beats the fire place located in the main lounge (wood provided).
There are also additional heaters for the bedrooms during particularly cold days/nights, as well as cosy blankets.
The yard is large and fully secured by a fence and gates, so it is perfect for small Children and pets. Once you park your car in the garage, there is no need to drive during your stay in Omeo - everything in town is within walking distance.
The snow fields (beautiful in all seasons) are closer to Omeo than Bright.
The people in the town are friendly and welcoming.
The main access point for the house is at the rear - it is best to park your cars in the garage or in the street behind (address provided upon booking).
Do not park on the grass in the winter months, or you will get bogged!
The block is on a gentle slope, it is not appropriate for people with serious mobility issues. At the back door, there are some remaining concrete steps, from when the house was originally built, which are steep and you should be mindful of this. There is an additional side entry point to the back door (the opposite end of the retaining wall to where the steps are). If you have any concerns please contact Mel directly prior to your stay.
There is a Porta cot and high chair for infants upon request. Linen and towels, crockery and cutlery are provided, as is coffee, plunger and instant as well as tea.
We have pest control systems in place - traps and bait are set in a safe place, out of reach of children. If you require more information, please contact your host.
Dogs are most welcome. However, please be courteous of future guests and keep them off the furniture and out of the bedrooms. Please clean up the yard after your pets before vacating the property.
If you have any suggestions on how we can improve the quality of our hospitality, please let us know.
If you have a negative experience, please contact Mel directly before leaving a bad review: I will make every effort to take on feedback to make the Omeo Miners Cottage an enjoyable and relaxing experience.
Please note the kitchen roof has a small sagging section from a past leak, it has been repaired and inspected by a builder and is completely safe and sound.

Cozy family holiday cottage
We so enjoyed our stay at Omeo. The cottage was well equipped and warm with excellent heating and even a fire laid ready for us. It was an easy walk to explore the historic and quirky town of Omeo. Plenty of chi Drens books and toys kept our 3yo happy too. We,were an easy drive to the snow for snowplay also.

Lovely Victoria High Country Stay Away
Had a wonderful long weekend stay in Omeo which is about a 40min drive to the ski slopes. The property was clean and had a fireplace in the living room. Beds were comfortable and the owner of the property had good recommendations on where to eat in the local area. Would definitely stay again. Thank you 😊

Miner’s cottage in heart of Omeo
Cute little cottage perfect for a family stay including our dog, in Omeo. The cottage is in a perfect location as it’s walking distance from everything. We loved being able to have our dog with us too as the property is securely fenced. Thanks Melanie.

Cosy little cottage
Had a great time with open fire and ample other heating options to keep warm as ambient temperature was between 0 & 5 degrees. Very clean and close to Main Street only 200 mtrs away. Plenty of firewood and all facilities and amenities were great nothing to bring. Would recommend to anyone wanting a hassle free break…Stuart

This was our third stay at the Miner's Cottage and it never disappoints . With it's sweeping view of the Main Street and Mt Mesley behind from the balcony and the cosy interior with all the amenities you need this is the perfect spot to come and enjoy all that Omeo and the High Country has to offer.

A gem in Omeo
We really enjoyed our stay in Omeo as a stop over on our way to Dinner Plain/Hotham. The cottage is cozy and comfortable, a well equipped kitchen and gorgeous picture window in the lounge room. Plenty of hot water for showers and comfortable beds. We enjoyed a glass of wine on the front porch at dusk. Thanks for a lovely stay!
