Kielock Homestead is a unique farm stay experience located centrally in the beautiful Kiewa Valley Victoria where you can camp right on the bank of the Kiewa River.  Some of the activities available include fishing, swimming, bush walking, bird and animal watching and bike riding. If you choose you can join in on farm activities such as feeding the animals,  collecting eggs and planting/harvesting fruit and vegetables. We have a small market garden available where you can pick and purchase seasonal fresh produce, alternatively vegetable boxes and eggs are available by arrangement and delivered right to your campsite.  Within the 200 acres of the property you will find it is home to many animals including kangaroos wombats platypus possums, bats and many bird and marine species. The main fish in the river are  trout and cod so if you would like to try your luck fishing this is the place for you.Some of the surrounding towns include Mt Beauty (20 mins), Yackandandah (30 mins), Bright (50 mins), Beechworth (50 mins) Falls Creek (60 mins) with the border towns of Albury and Wodonga only 50 mins away. These beautiful towns contain an array of boutique wineries, craft breweries, bakeries and cafes, or you can choose to follow a farm gate food trail. The area also provides opportunities to go horse-riding, bike riding on one of the many rail trails or be adventurous on the mountain bike tracks at Falls Creek in the warmer months with snow sports in winter. The surrounding mountain ranges offer numerous famous 4wd trails or you might like to try your hand at panning for gold. This is a working farm and our animals are our family. They are very friendly but only know us and not you so please do not enter their homes without us, but feel free to talk to them over the gates. Be aware that all fences are electric and are switched on at all times.  There is a dedicated communal campfire area for use when fire restrictions permit and we request that no additional fire pits are created during your stay.  As this is a working property we are unable to accommodate your pets. For biosecurity reasons there is a strict No Pet policy.  We look forward to greeting you upon arrival and showing you to your campsite.

Just spent the Australia Day weekend at Peppermint Grove! Highly recommended! A private site, sunny but shade if you need to find it. Fire pit and great river access with the best swimming hole! Great spot to camp!!

A tranquil oasis right on the river
A tranquil oasis on the banks of the Kiewa River. Big flat sites right on the banks of the river, offering a perfect blend of swimming, fishing, walks, birdwatching, and relaxation, making for an unforgettable experience. Charles and Cassie were the perfect hosts and even gave us a tour of their vegetable garden, fruit trees and green house. Thank you so much 😊

Camping site with the lot.
Fantastic hosts - Charles and Cassie were welcoming and helpful, and great sources of knowledge. The farmhouse also has lovely produce you can purchase - including veggie boxes. Our site at Kielock farm was beautiful. Lovely and shady by the river, lots of private space, and the river is gorgeous - shallow spots of the kids to swim and deep holes for diving and fishing (including nice sized murray cod). We purchased a couple of bags of dry, split firewood from Charles, which was delivered to our campsite by Charles. Lovely bird life ( a blue kingfisher), foraging for lots of blackberries, and kids roaming around on bikes, including feeding the chooks and checking in on turkey chicks. Would love to stay again in the future - the perfect site for a lovely group stay. Also only about 20 minutes or so into Mount Beauty for easy drop-off at the dump point, extra supplies, and a couple of breweries and cafes.

Charles was a great host and happily showed our kids around the farm. The campsite by the river is beautiful. Heavily shaded and the river was very clear and great to swim in. Unfortunately lots of flies during the daylight hours when we were there. We just made a point of going exploring for the day to Mt Beauty and Bright.
