Myross Bush lies cradled by the gentle sweep of Southland's rolling farmland, a landscape painted in broad strokes of emerald and ochre. It lies 6.3 km north-east of Invercargill (from Invercargill: bearing 54°T), and is situated 5.0 km east-north-east of Rosedale. The land here is a tapestry of pasture, occasionally broken by stands of native bush that whisper with the passage of the wind, a subtle hum that underpins the quietude. The Waihopai River, a kilometre distant, carves its patient course through the terrain, its waters reflecting the wide, often overcast skies that are characteristic of the region. To the north, the land rises gradually, hinting at the distant Heale Ridge, a more rugged silhouette against the horizon, some thirty-five kilometres away. Lake Bennett, a mere four kilometres from Myross Bush, offers a stiller, reflective counterpoint to the flowing river, its surface often mirroring the clouds in a tranquil embrace.

The economic heart of Myross Bush beats to the rhythm of agriculture, with dairy farming forming the bedrock of its prosperity, the rich soil yielding its bounty season after season. This has been the enduring pursuit, a legacy passed down through generations, shaping the very character of the place. While the immediate vicinity doesn't boast the dense canopy of Hokonui Forest, which lies some twenty-one kilometres eastward, the spirit of the land is one of quiet cultivation and steady growth. The Waihopai Embankment Walkway, a short four-kilometre journey, offers a chance to tread paths trodden by those who have long called this place home, a subtle connection to the history etched into the soil. Donovan Park, a scant five kilometres away, provides a communal space, a testament to the enduring human presence and the simple pleasures found in the shared landscape of Myross Bush.
