For travellers in search of an experience, nothing says authentic country-living like a stay at a private, working farm. Hosts may offer interactive kid-friendly activities or, for couples, a cosy haven in an original/converted farmhouse. Breakfast is often included — you may be collecting the eggs yourself!
The tariff include breakfast which was very substantial. It was a shame we were there only for one night but have recommended to our family with children as it would have been great for kids. The apartment was great and warm when we arrived and it actually what we expected but more. It was a shame we couldn't stay long enough to enjoy the farm tour as that would have been good to go on too.
My partner and I stayed at Hillview Farmstay for a weekend roadtrip and we had an amazing experience staying in the glamping dome tent. The property managers, Donna and Glen, are lovely people who made us feel very welcome. We had a minor issue with the heating on the first night, and they were incredibly helpful in helping us resolve it at 9pm. Their hospitality is what made our stay so incredible!
Donna the manager of Hillview Farmstay was friendly & very welcoming. When it came to feeding the animals she was wonderful with the children making them feel very calm & secure around the animals. The safari tent was well equipped, comfortable with a rustic charm & fun.
We loved the decor of the place. Very tasteful and cosy. The bed is very comfortable. We loved the natural, made in Australia, body wash, shampoo etc. Everything was done with great emphasis to detail - like the beautiful tree branch on the ceiling.
It’s dog friendly and my dog enjoys his time at the Farmstay. In a chilly autumn day, comfortable bed, warm air and food in the fridge - we’re beyond happy to have stayed here during our trip from Melb to Sydney! Ruth is very easy to communicate with and has been responsive to our questions too. Thank you Ruth!
Hillview Farmstay was the perfect place to break our journey between Melbourne and Sydney. We had time for a dip in the pool and to relax on the deck, our cottage had everything we needed.
