Trickle Hill Cottage
5. Trickle Hill Cottage

(1)
53km from Mernda · 1 site
Trickle Hill is a lovely cottage tucked away at the edge of our bush. You have your own little patio, and can go for adventurous walks straight from your living room !
We are close to Dandenong ranges, Yarra valley, Bunyip state park, and Puffing Billy.
We are just behind Avalon castle- so great if you are attending a wedding
We welcome couples, solo adventurers and families. We are of course LGBTI+ friendly!
Dogs are very welcome.
The cottage is a converted shed, with three bedrooms, a lovely living area and a cosy closed woodfire. We have a sheltered outdoor area, where you can have a barbeque, or have a small fire in a firedish. The cottage is in the bush, so you can walk out and try to find our resident breeding pair of Lyrebirds, echidnas, wombats, wallabies and kangaroos or the deer that live in our 'back yard'. Or just roam, which shouldn't be too hard on 67 acres .
We are close to massive areas of bush with open trails. Dogs are very welcome- no cats.
As we live in the bush, we do our best to keep everything as 'green' as we can- so please don't use harsh chemicals.
Living in the bush brings with it that you cannot light a fire in fire danger periods, and, heating on a woodstove, means there is a hot stove in the room. (watch those little fingers...)
Our aim is to give you a place of rest and enjoyment. We love to share our space as we love it here so much- and hope you love it too.
As life is a project - don't expect 10* linen and luxury, state of the art gardens and clipped lawns, but a friendly welcoming atmosphere where you can be yourself and relax.
We love to have visitors, and chat for a bit- or leave you to relax. The cottage is on the edge of the bush, where you are welcome to roam on the tracks or off them- at your own risk :-)
We are both artists, and our studio's are close to the cottage, which might make some noise, but we'll try to keep it at a minimum when guests are here.
The upside is, you could learn something if interested :-) (contact us for workshops)
We have a working hobby farm- with some machinery, animals (pigs, dogs, horses, ducks and chickens).
You can interact with the animals if you talk to us about safety first, but the horse paddock is out of bounds. ( they can behave unpredictable, are very large (!) and very valuable)
Our dogs are very friendly and will most probably visit you. Our puppy still has lots to learn :-)
Our property is stock- fenced, our animals will stay in, but dogs are able to roam if they are not staying with you.
There is no secure yard to leave your dog during the day, you are expected to be in control of your dogs at all times. If they are ok with horses, chooks and dogs, and under voice command, they can be off leash.
Dogs are not to sleep on the beds.
We are a rural property with animals, and there are dams on the property, (not close to the cottage) so please keep an eye on children - we cannot take responsibility for your persons or animals.
Living on a farm means that not everything is neat, safe, flat or person-proof. Often there is actual work being done involving machinery. Coming here is entirely at your own risk. (sorry for all the disclaimers...)
But- of course- if there is anything we can do to make your visit more pleasurable, we will do our best to do so!

Boondaburra in Ruffy

76km from Mernda · 2 sites · RVs, Lodging
Imagine the rustic fun and earthiness of cooking on an open fire (or BBQ) whilst having the luxury of a cozy cabin with all the creature comforts of a quality accommodation venue.
You will find this on our working farm, in the heart of the pristine Strathbogie Ranges...a world away from city life. We live alongside echidnas, wombats, koalas, platypus, kangaroos, and a very friendly Kelpie. Although we live on the property, we do our utmost to maintain your privacy at all times.
Idyllic rural property is located amongst the stunning granite boulders of Victoria's Strathbogie ranges. Gorgeous peaceful walks and places to just sit.... and sit some more....a perennial mountain creek borders this working farm - 20-30 mins from many local cafes, restaurants, pubs, and wineries. Take a creek walk....spot some platypus perhaps? Grey nomads might even use it as a refreshing break from the 'van! Plenty of parking...and star gazers are welcome to explore our very dark night sky. We provide a local sourdough loaf of bread to your cottage.
Important to note:
Local shops are 30 mins drive away so please bring any necessities with you. We welcome babes in arms and we can provide a portable cot, however, as this is a working farm with unfenced dams, creeks, and electric fencing we cannot accommodate toddlers or older children.
No Pets permitted.
We reserve the right to ask BnB guests to leave if a bushfire is nearby or if the Fire Danger Rating is extreme or catastrophic - we will offer a credit.

Really wonderful weekend escape. My partner and puppy and I enjoyed a farm stay here at Anne Maree's cute cabin. It had everything we needed and was easy to find, the farm grounds are huge and we couldn't even manage to walk the whole property! Friendly dogs on the farm that would visit us. The cabin it Esse was lovely and well presented, heating, comfy bed, kitchen with everything needed and am amazing bathroom with rain shower. The jacuzzi looked lovely but it was raining the entire stay, and it was not working anyway(the owner was extremely apologetic about this, and made up for it, by offering other alternatives and also made us home made scones, lamb shank soup and some other goodies, she didn't need to do this however Anne Maree was lovely and a proper host) this made us feel so comfortable and welcome and we already want to go back!! Hoping the rain is not there and the jacuzzi is fixed the next time we are there, Thankyou Ann Maree for a wonderful stay

Weekend Trip to Weemalah Cabin & Camping
Had the most serendipitous weekend at Anne-mare’s campsite, it exceeded already very high expectations.
The creek is stunning, and so fun for swimming, paddling floating, jumping off the rocks and (attempted) fishing.
The landscape is so beautiful, plenty of space for camping and so much to explore.
We also booked the cabin which was beautiful and the jacuzzi looking out on to the fields was such a delight!!
Anne-maree met us at the gate and was super lovely and comprehensive showing us around and being available if we needed.
Would 100% go back here!!

7 nights at Weemalah Cabin & Camping
Loved staying at the farm house. Anne-Maree and her husband were very helpful through our trip.
The view to the cattle was beautiful, sunsets every evening - brilliant!
Worth noting the spa didn't get as hot as we would have liked as there was no cover. The max temperature we could get it to was 35 degrees which is not that warm - but still beautiful.
Loved how self sufficient the cabin was too!
