___The neighbourhood___
• Loch and Loch region are so beautiful. Every season has its secrets and shines in its own way.
• I couldn't believe how beautiful this area was when I first came through in 2018. It took a couple of years but I moved here early 2020. Space On The Hill was launched in 2021 after adding a kitchen, the bathroom, flooring and heating and I've spent 3 years being really proud of creating a space and guest experience that is designed to help you exhale from the life that keeps your mind and body busy.
• Space On The Hill is in the heart of vibrant Loch village with its shopping, cafes, brewery, winery and restaurants & just meters from the rail trail some lovely walks and waterways.
• Relax in the space. Explore the shops, eateries, trails, waterways and hills of Loch. Venture around South Gippsland beaches, woodlands, green fields and natural wonders.
