A typical sunny Winter's day in Beautiful Bright
… Because it’s warm, beautiful & affordable.
It’s not generally known, but Bright has much warmer Winters than Melbourne … and lots of fine sunny days. Sure, it often gets cold at night but our Winter days are usually more like fine Spring weather … without the ice-cold wind.
And, contrary to popular opinion, Winter is actually our quiet season as far as the number of tourists are concerned. That’s why we offer our:
Snow Season Special of 50% off accommodation from your 3rd night onwards.
Bright is located in a very protected valley at the foothills of some of Victoria’s most renowned snow-topped mountains where you can enjoy skiing, tobogganing or just sightseeing or snow-play with the kids.
For serious skiers Mt Hotham & Falls Creek resorts are not far away. You can hire all your ski gear in Bright and, if you don’t want to drive up the mountain, there are regular buses from Bright that will take you right to the top.
And Mt Buffalo (which is ideal for sightseeing, snow-play & tobogganing) is even closer.
Bright offers plenty of interesting shops, two supermarkets and a wide-range of restaurants. We’re also close to the wineries.
Bright is a real Alpine village without the cold or high prices you have to pay for staying ‘up there’ !
Staying ‘off-mountain’ in Bright is the best and most affordable way to enjoy the delights of the snow season …
… without the cold and the cost!
Enquire now … you won’t regret it.

27 September 2011: This year’s great Spring weather is bringing out the best in our gardens. The Azaleas have even arrived early while the Magnolias and Camelias are still in bloom. And the Dogwoods will be next. It’s a unique event, as usually one species follows another but this year – over the next few weeks – is clearly one of the best opportunities you’ll ever have to see Bright at its beautiful best. As these photos taken this week prove -
There’s nothing like Bright in Spring!

Stunning Dogwoods flank the entry at Grevillea Gardens.
It’s Victoria’s best kept secret, but not for long if we can help it. Bright is most known for its stunning Autumn colours, but the best time to visit is actually in Spring, with its stunning displays of : Azaleas, Dogwoods, Camelias, Magnolias, Rhododendrons and Grevilleas.
The climate and conditions are just perfect in Bright for these magnificent species to show their very best. Just take a look at these photos taken around Grevillea Gardens last Spring (click on each image to enlarge):
