Golton in the Gap - Immerse yourself in the serenity of the Grampians landscape

Golton in the Gap is a modern, architecturally designed home in the heart of Halls Gap. This beautifully appointed home built in 2016, accommodates up to eight guests in three spacious bedrooms, and large open living area. Golton in the Gap is the perfect setting for a memorable getaway with family, friends or loved ones.

Your complete comfort has been considered with a north facing aspect, wood heater, split system heating and cooling in all bedrooms and living area, and ensuite to master bedroom. The modern well appointed kitchen includes stainless steel appliances, induction cooktop, full family sized refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave and stone benchtops. The luxurious bathroom and ensuite each incorporate a large walk-in shower and stone vanities, with the bathroom featuring a freestanding bath. Free wifi is provided for guests.

Golton in the Gap invites relaxation with stunning views of the Mt William and Wonderland Ranges. Step out from the living area to the expansive deck to enjoy alfresco dining, a morning coffee with the local cockatoos for company, or to unwind at the end of the day with a glass of wine as the sun sets on the surrounding mountains.

Take some time before bed to step outside and gaze up to the sky. As your eyes adjust to the darkness, you will be greeted with an endless sky filled with twinkling stars. Can you see the Milky Way? What a great way to fully unwind and relax at the days end.

To assist guests requiring access for mobility needs, a ramp extends from where you park your car, into the house. Doorways have extra width, and the showers are walk-in and spacious.

When you're ready to explore, Golton in the Gap is located just a leisurely stroll from the cafes, restaurants and shops in Halls Gap, and is centrally located for the many walking tracks within the Grampians National Park, where you can see native wildlife including kangaroos, emus, cockatoos and kookaburras. Experience Aboriginal culture at Brambuk Cultural Centre and then view Aboriginal Rock Art sites, the largest number in Southern Australia.

Halls Gap and the Grampians are a delight for food lovers. There are a number of award winning wineries in the area, and be sure to sample local olives and olive oil.

Golton in the Gap has received three Victorian Tourism Awards, recognising "Excellence in Tourism". We received the Gold Award for Self-Contained Accommodation in Victoria, in both 2021 and 2018, while in 2017, Silver was received in the New Tourism Business category.

Gorgeous house, great location
Delivered everything that was expected. We really enjoyed our stay. It is expensive, however., Perhaps this is relative to the area, we have experienced much of Victoria at lower prices.

Grampians luxury at Golton in the Gap
Our stay at Golton in the Gap was perfect from start to finish. From the first contact, Roslyn and Daryl were excellent and prompt communicators. They even gave me tips for the few pieces of kitchen equipment I would need to cook our Christmas dinner. The digital guidebook was comprehensive, and so useful throughout our stay. We loved the location just a short walk from town (and the emus en route who we had to visit just to farewell before we left!). The views from the deck were sensational, and the cockatoos and kookaburras joined us frequently when we ate our meals or relaxed with a drink and a book. Inside the home is spacious with a clever layout and very good finishes. Because we were staying for Christmas, it also sparkled with extra little Christmas touches and treats. The welcome gifts were so generous! The kitchen was well supplied with all the essentials, and my husband loved the Nespresso machine. We barely used the air conditioning units because we had perfect weather and the home is so well insulated. The crisp white sheets were high quality and the firm mattress helped us sleep well after spending our mornings hiking and exploring the Grampians. The hot water was plentiful and the water pressure was great. Special mention to the luxurious bath! We can’t wait to return. Do not hesistate – Golton in the Gap is a must stay!

We could not fault this property. The location was perfect. The house is definitely 5 stars. Modern, extremely clean. The kitchen is equipped with everything you could possibly need. Beds and linen were luxurious. Bathrooms were large. Has a lovely verandah to sit and enjoy the view and sunshine. Have been coming two to three times a year to Halls Gap and we have found our perfect place to stay.

Beautiful home, warm and comfy
This house is great for 1 or 2 families, I love that the main bedroom is separated from the other bedrooms, so you can come together in the lounge room or have some peace and quiet. It was well-maintained, everything was easy to operate and there was plenty of kitchen equipment and storage (like plastic containers for food), which I have often found is not the case in rental accomodation. Easy walk into town, easy to get around. Relaxing to stay at home with the fire or experience the Grampians!

It ticked all the boxes and some more
Property was as advertised and ticked all the boxes for us. For those who like to stay connected, the phone reception at the property was good, which is often a problem in Halls Gap. Moreover, the internet worked very well, which kept a couple of kids very happy at night.
