Our property is approximately 150 acres, located in the Upper Hunter Valley between the Goulburn River National Park and the Wollemi National Park. In the shadow of Mt Dangar, our land sweeps down to the pristine Goulburn River, one of the main tributaries of the Hunter River.
The property was once part of a huge agricultural station, that was established not long after explorers started to open up the interior to development in colonial times.
We raise cattle and have an olive grove, which we planted in 2001 (our olive brand is Windybank Olives). In 2003 we established The Old Dairy accommodation, by renovating the crumbling 1940's dairy shed at the top of the property.
There are stunning views of the surrounding countryside in all directions from The Old Dairy. It is a place to unwind, relax, reset. Guests have loved the peace & quiet we offer, the chance to get away from everything for a short while. Our road is just off Bylong Valley Way - a visually stunning route through the national parks towards Mudgee, Rylstone, Capertee Valley, Lithgow and the Greater Blue Mountains, tracking along the headwaters of the Goulburn River.
One of the most beautiful drives in New South Wales and within close proximity of terrific campsites like Ganguddy (Dunn's Swamp via Rylstone) and Big River (Gouburn River National Park). Plenty of birds & wildlife (kangaroos make a very regular appearance - as do healthy green tree frogs!).
A beautiful part of the world.

Weekend Trip to The Old Dairy @ Baerami
We loved our stay at the old dairy! Being only a 3 hour drive from Sydney it’s the perfect weekend escape. The cabin is well fitted out, and we loved curling up by the fire watching the colours of the sunset on Mt Dangar. Definitely recommend!

1 night at The Old Dairy @ Baerami
I couldn't have had a better stay! The Old Dairy was absolutely beautiful and had the most charming, authentic feel whilst also providing you with everything you need while you are there.
The location was easy to get to and Sarah had perfect communication the entire time. Set in the countryside, you will have no problem relaxing; whether it's sitting outside under the trees, inside by the fire or in the luxurious clawfoot bath.
I was really impressed with how well stocked the kitchen was with cooking equipment and the bed was incredibly comfortable. You will have no problem getting a good nights sleep.
I'd recommend The Old Dairy to anyone and I cannot wait to return!
