Accreditation and awards for 'Liptrap Loft':

2010 State Winner (VICTORIA) TakeABreak Unique Holiday Accommodation

2009 Finalist TakeABreak VIC Unique Holiday Accommodation

Cottage, Holiday house

Liptrap Loft is not a 5 star hotel. It is a getaway for those who like wildlfe and a unique and rustic environment.
It is suited to those who demand more character, charm and seclusion than found at a nearby motel.

Liptrap Loft is built on 5 acres surrounded by farmland. The house overlooks green paddocks; sheep, cattle or horses lazily graze 30 metres from the house. Half the block is covered with native bushland, acting as a haven for bird life. Echidnas, wallabies, koalas, wombats are often seen strolling through the grounds.

There are stunning beaches nearby, including the famous "Magic Beach" at Walkerville and great secluded beaches if you want to get back to nature.

The house was built by an owner/builder/designer who was so inspired from building Liptrap Loft he went back to university to study architecture. Evidence of his care and creativity can be found in everything from incorporating materials he found on the beach to hand-crafted dish racks and cupboard doors. Recycled windows line the walls of the main room giving the feeling that you are right in nature, and the combination of timber finishes and solid beams creates an unusual comfort.

"it is exactly what you said it would be"
"there is something special about Liptrap, I have not relaxed so much since my free backpacking years"
" a diamond, I will be back"
"shall recommend this only to people who will get it, and I want to keep it a bit of a secret"

The 5 acres is fenced, and keeps out sheep cattle and horses from the neighboring farm, but will not restrict dogs or cats, so it is not considered a fully fenced running area.
