Talisker is an 11 bedroom, 5 bathroom home at this stage. Initially forming part of the Merino Downs pastoral run (taken up by Francis Henty in 1836). Talisker passed to Francis’s daughter Caroline on the death of Francis in 1889. Merino Downs was one of the first three squatting runs established in Victoria. Following Caroline’s marriage to Angus McLeod, the Talisker Homestead was commissioned by architect Charles D’Ebro prominent for his design of Stonnington (Malvern) and Langi Willie (Skipton). The homestead (circa 1901) is a large U shaped designed Edwardian home of some 26 rooms (not all are available to guests as some parts of the home are undergoing further renovations). Featuring a viewing tower with expansive 360 degree views, elaborate plasterwork, colour leadlights and handsome timber and marble mantles throughout the home. The original garden design is evident with Bunya Bunya pines, a large Oak and a Kurrajong tree. Talisker is named for Angus McLeod’s (please note McLeod and MacLeod are used interchangeably) ancestral seat on the Isle of Skye. Talisker was for centuries a possession of the Clan MacLeod. In 1820 Donald Macleod, 6th of Talisker, sold his interest in Talisker and emigrated to Van Diemen's Land, now known as Tasmania. In 1825, Hugh MacAskill took over the Talisker estate and completed the clearance process begun under his predecessor. Five years later, in 1830, he founded the Talisker Distillery and the legendary Talisker whisky was born.

The paddock is lovely and peaceful. Rob helped talk us through, as Google maps sent us incorrect information. The driveway is pretty much opposite number 429.

Such a lovely owner, was so kind and was happy to have a chat with us! The site was well maintained. Noting that it is just a spot in the owners backyard, but wasn’t an issue for us.

Fantastic spot to camp! We have been visiting the Grampians for many years now, but have always camped in the Northern end. Sam's property was beautiful, with amazing views of the mountains. Campsites were placed far enough apart from each other, and there was an abundance of firewood. Well placed to explore Dunkeld and the Victoria Valley, with Halls Gap only half an hour away. We'll be back for sure!

Carla’s place was so picturesque and beautifully set up. The outdoor bath was amazing.. perfect for soaking while taking in the fresh air and views. It’s a great spot to unwind by the open fire or use as a base to explore the region, being just 10 minutes from Warrnambool. It was easy to find using Google Maps, but if you’re using Apple Maps, Carla’s directions will come in handy. Carla and her partner were friendly and great to communicate with. Highly recommend!

On arrival Sue and Andrew greeted us with a very warm welcome. Parked the van up and offered us power and water. We were shown around with access to a beautiful pergola area with BBQ especially for the guests. Close to Warrnambool, Port Fairy and Portland all absolutely beautiful places to visit. Would highly recommend staying here and we would definitely visit again. Thanks so much
