King Billy Retreat Guesthouse is a renovated 1960's shearing shed surrounded by native gardens and bush-land. The interior design is reflective of an intimate gallery with art-work and cosy furniture in every room. Guests are welcome to enjoy the gardens and walk throughout the 40 acre property and surrounding bush-land which is especially good for bird-watching. The historic gold mining town of Rushworth is a 3km walk through the bush and the Waranga Basin is a short distance away - great for fishing & water sports. The retreat is also a short drive (10mins) to the historic gold rush area of Whroo where you can learn about the gold rush and spend time hiking in Box-Ironbark National Parks. King Billy Retreat is centrally located in Victoria and only two hours from Melbourne, 50mins from Bendigo and 40mins from Echuca on the Murray River and Shepparton. Set within an extensive Box-Ironbark forest, King Billy Retreat Guesthouse, Rushworth is in an excellent location to explore central Victoria.King Billy Retreat Guesthouse is a renovated 1960's shearing shed surrounded by native gardens and bush-land.
