Located in the historic coastal township of Wonthaggi, Thagg Haus is a charming two-bedroom cottage that captures the timeless beauty of its century-old heritage. Thoughtfully designed to blend vintage character with modern touches, it creates a nostalgic yet welcoming atmosphere. As you pull into the driveway, you will be greeted by tranquil gardens and a serene front porch–perfect for escaping the busyness of everyday life. Inside, high ceilings amplify the space, offering both grandeur and a sense of stepping back into a simpler time. In the living room, you will find our collection of books, puzzles, and games. We have deliberately omitted a television to encourage relaxation and connection, making it a true retreat for recharging and reconnecting. The heart of Thagg Haus is its kitchen and dining area, where a well-stocked pantry invites you to create memorable meals by the Nectre wood heater. Outside, a spacious backyard invites you to unwind further. The fire pit and wood-fired pizza oven are guest favourites, perfect for magical summer evenings under the Milky Way, or surrounded by the gentle glow of twinkling fairy lights in our rustic workshop. The expansive backyard offers a haven for children to play, and pets to roam freely. Thagg Haus is an ideal stay for families, groups, or individuals. Both bedrooms are furnished with queen-sized beds dressed in luxurious European Flax linen, promising restful nights after days filled with exploring. Thagg Haus is more than just a place to stay—it’s a memory waiting to be created. Whether you are here to explore the rugged beaches, scenic coastal walks, and rolling hills, discover the charm of the local towns and markets, or simply unwind, you will find everything you need for an unforgettable stay.
Love to travel, and go on adventures. Live for weekend escapes with loved ones and have stayed in some of the most beautiful airbnbs across Victoria.. Have always dreamt of creating my own place to escape to and share with others and have finally achieved my dream. I hope you love it as much as I do. x You will be left alone to enjoy the space but more than welcome to contact me if you require any local suggestions or have other needs.
Wonthaggi is a seaside town in the Bass Coast shire. Known originally for its coal mining, it is now the largest town in South Gippsland. You'll have everything you need close by for a comfortable stay; all the while being a central location to explore our beautiful and vast region. We are a close drive to the hustle and bustle of town where you can pick up any necessities/groceries. There is also a lovely local cafe only a few doors down for those who like to travel far from home. Getting to Thagg Haus - There is a Vline bus service departing from Southern Cross station, Melbourne to Wonthaggi (roughly 2 and a half hours). Otherwise drive and park onsite.
