I loved Cherry Top so much I stayed for 3 nights!!! The hosts, John and Leslie are an absolute delight, truly wonderful and welcoming people! The camping was quiet and easily assessable in my van (that isn't good off road), I stayed in both the villa and the camping sites, and enjoyed both equally! Lilydale is a little piece of paradise, and the farm is beautiful! Don't hesitate, just book your stay already!!

It was a quaint, quite canpsite in a cute town of Lilydale. There was an ample supply of firewood provided at a reasonable cost and we opted to have the garden tour, which my daughter and I loved. The hosts were very lovely. We roasted our hazelnuts right on the fire (in the shell) and Lesley showed us how to use the antique cracking dohickey. So many fruit trees that produce and the veggie gardens as well, we love fresh produce! We even got to feed the geese. We would definitely recommend this Farm Stay!

Beautiful setting in the peaceful Lilydale town. John & Leslie are wonderful hosts and have such a stunning property. The property has a beautiful layout with clean toilets and showers available to arrange. Have a wonderful view of the mountains and stunning picturesque stargazing views at night. Hop on into lend a hand picking some hazelnuts or purchase their fresh produce. Heaps of activities & options for kids. Now for the negative comments here please remember this is a farm in a farm town so yes there are cows, geese and other animals around so the occasional noise is bound to happen, but we have stayed for a few weeks at this space and couldn’t complain about a thing.

Nice little spot with friendly cows in the adjacent field, fruit trees, and a walk through a flourishing vegetable patch to the camp toilet at the farmhouse. We were the 5th unit in and others had already blocked the fire pit area. Would love to bring firewood again for a little campfire here though.
