It lies 45.8 km west of Traralgon, VIC (from Traralgon, VIC: bearing 265°T), and is situated 11.2 km south-south-east of Warragul. The air here carries the clean scent of eucalyptus and damp earth, particularly after the frequent, soft rains that nourish the rich soil. Winding country lanes, bordered by ancient, gnarled fence posts and the occasional flash of a crimson rosella, lead the eye across gently sloping paddies and grazing paddocks. Here and there, stands of tall eucalypts, their bark a mosaic of grey and white, provide dappled shade for contented sheep, their wool like scattered clouds against the verdant slopes. The distant rumble of a ute, a fleeting sound, is the only punctuation in the quiet symphony of wind rustling through the grass and the occasional bleating of livestock.
The story of Cloverlea is deeply intertwined with the fertile land that surrounds it, a history built on the back of pastoral pursuits. For generations, this has been a place where the seasons dictate the rhythm of life, where sheep and cattle have been the enduring currency.

The local hall, a simple timber structure, serves as the heart of community gatherings, a place where stories are shared and the enduring spirit of this small pocket of the Baw Baw Shire is kept alive. The surrounding countryside, a patchwork of farms and natural bushland, offers a sense of enduring peace, a place where the simple act of watching the sun dip below the horizon, painting the western sky in hues of rose and gold, feels like a profound event.
