Luxury Accommodation in Nagambie: The Mitchelton

With so many beautiful and historic destinations within a couple of hours of Melbourne, it’s easy to overlook visiting some of the lesser talked about towns or regions. Nagambie is one of those destinations, definitely considered off the beaten path but well worth visiting for its natural beauty, food, wine and water activities on Lake Nagambie. There’s no need to be concerned about where to stay as Nagambie is home to one of the best boutique hotels in the Goulburn Valley.

More Nagambie Accommodation

If the Nagambie’s only boutique hotel is unavailable or out of your budget, there are a few other motels and holiday homes which get good reviews. But to reiterate, if you are looking for luxury or winery accommodation then stay at the highly regarded Mitchelton Hotel.

• Nagambie Waterfront Motel – This popular motel is located on the shores of Lake Nagambie and is the most popular motel in Nagambie. If the Mitchelton isn’t available and you’re willing to settle for something a little more basic then this is the next best option. It’s considerably more affordable than the Mitchelton but of course, you get what you pay for. That being said, Nagambie Waterfront is excellent value for money.
• Airbnb Narambie – While there are a number of Airbnb holiday stays in Nabambie, these are generally more classic family-style homes rather than luxury accommodation or anything resembling a boutique hotel.
• Nagambie Caravan Park – The caravan park has motel-style accommodation which is basic, clean and great value for money. The central pool is one of the highlights so this is a great option if you’re on a budget and have young children who need entertaining.
