We are humbled you chose us to spend your heartbeats with. For now, Belinda and Robert ********************************************************************************* This acreage was historically a larger soldiers settlements property comprising a dairy, piggery and wool farming. The quality of the land hasn't changed with most of the region's farmland in use, so this is a cool place to stay in the Macedon Ranges. Currently home to our family, the property is also visited by many native Australian birdlife species, many marsupials including kangaroos, echidna, possums and even a koala. With close proximity to coffee shops and local stores of Romsey and Lancefield Providore, you have only a few minutes to drive to stock up on local produce. Walking the trails around Hanging Rock is a 10-minute drive and Mt Macedon lookout 15min. We look forward to saying hi soon!

Located in Yea, Killingworth Hill provides a quiet rural farm setting, ideally located for those traveling in Central Victoria. The immediate area offers lots of activities. Lake Eildon nearby is fantastic for fishing and boating, as are several other nearby rivers. There are a number of local National Parks to visit, providing excellent hiking trails. The Victorian Rail Trail runs through Yea, plus we're en route to Mt Buller for winter snow activities. The farm is spread over 20 acres, with two large dams for fishing and bird watching. We also have a whisky bar and cafe on site! Where authentic vintage Australian farm relics sit alongside fine china and silverware. The décor (and the whisky) at Killingworth Hill Cafe represents a collection that is the product of decades of searching and dedication. It’s rustic, traditional Australiana with more than a smack of sophistication. Drink in the history as you sample some of the finest drams you’ll ever come across. Discerning whisky lovers enjoy an experience that’s more than the sum of its parts.
