The Stables was a functioning stable, dairy and horse and cart garaging area in the properties heyday many decades ago. The cattle would be walked up a lane, be held in the cobblestone yards you have exclusive use of, be walked into the stalls, where your pizza oven now stands, manually milked, and then turned out to what is now your BBQ area.
Its now your next luxe rural getaway. Leave the tent and van behind for this little slice of the good life. Bring your bestie - even your neighbours and your fur baby for a sit back and relax experience.
The paddocks to the back of the property are yours to walk to take in the peace and the wildlife. They are abundant with kangaroos and their joeys in the spring so we ask you go quietly and slowly so they can move away slowly.
The birdsong is a great way to relax with your book, listening to the sounds of nature.

Set on an 18-acre property at the start of the Brisbane National Ranges, it is home to koalas, kangaroos, echidnas, sugar gliders and an abundance of birds including eagles and kookaburras. Furthermore, the land is protected by Trust for Nature and Land for Wildlife offering long-term protection for many ecosystems, species and native wildlife.
The property is surrounded by national parks and is only a short drive from charming, historical towns such as Meredith and Steiglitz and only 25mins to Geelong. A number of family-owned wineries are located nearby and within Victoria’s Moorabool Valley winery.

We offer Book a Paddock, By the Creek and The Stables as listings for those wanting to camp or have a lux experience.
Some of you have asked for parties and events. At this time we don't have the infrastructure in place to get this rolling.
Thank you so so much for your support, your quiet and respectful enjoyment of our property. 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!

Welcome to our family and friends of our first listing - Book A Paddock, and to our new gang with The Stables on Knox.
The Stables was a functioning stable, dairy and horse and cart garaging area in the properties heyday many decades ago. The cattle would be walked up a lane, be held in the cobblestone yards you have exclusive use of, be walked into the stalls, where your pizza oven now stands, manually milked, and then turned out to what is now your BBQ area.
Its now your next luxe rural getaway. Leave the tent and van behind for this little slice of the good life. Bring your bestie - even your neighbours and your fur baby for a sit back and relax experience.
The paddocks to the back of the property are yours to walk to take in the peace and the wildlife. They are abundant with kangaroos and their joeys in the spring so we ask you go quietly and slowly so they can move away slowly.
The birdsong is a great way to relax with your book, listening to the sounds of nature.

Beautiful private and quiet setting. We arrived late afternoon in 3 caravans and had enough time to have a lovely campfire before the rain came . Private enough to have a quiet guitar and campfire singalong- something you can’t really do in a caravan park without disturbing others. I would definitely come again and recommend to others. Unfortunately the weather was against us to make total use of the property but lovely all the same.

Camping right in front of a vineyard ! The atmosphere here is amazing. The host was friendly, and all of my friends loved the site too. Having a winery right next door was such a bonus — we even got to enjoy some wine tasting and had wonderful time!
If there were shower facilities, it would honestly be 200% perfect! But even without them, I’d definitely love to come back again. Such a beautiful and unique camping experience! ❤️

Beautiful property, very neat and well setup.
Hosts Ally and Ken were great to communicate with.
They can provide bonfire wood for $20 a day. To use in your sites allocated fire pit.
We explored Sovereign hill in Ballarat, which was only a short drive away.
Definitely recommend if you’re after a relaxing country stay.

5 day stay was perfect for our first visit to the Bellarine. Location is perfect for touring around the region. Camp site surrounded by the vines was idyllic for off-grid camper. Booked an extra day so that we could enjoy an afternoon lunch and tasting at the cellar door - so glad we didn't miss that! Chris & Toby are great hosts. 5 stars
