Yarriambiance (noun), Yar-ri-am-bi-ance:
"A feeling or mood associated with fresh air, open spaces, big skies, stunning sunsets, starry nights, open fires and the sounds of nature, on the banks of the Yarriambiack Creek"
Do you want a break from the hustle and bustle of the city, the frustration of traffic congestion, from noise and pollution? Does open space, fresh air, and the peace and quiet of nature sound appealing? Well, come and experience the ‘Yarriambiance’ of our unique rural escape.
It is not far off the main highway, but far enough that you will feel like you are in the middle of nowhere. You will experience dusty back roads, open plains and the starry skies of rural Australia, yet you will only be 20 minutes away from a bustling regional city (Horsham).
Around the property there are many old historic farm buildings, including an original 'boundary riders' hut (circa 1870's).
The Yarriambiack Creek is the western boundary of the property, and is a haven for birds and wildlife such as kangaroos & wallabies. Ancient river redgums run along the creek which provide for nice shady spots in summer. The creek relies on seasonal rainfall, and when running, is deep enough for swimming or paddling around in a kayak. When dry, the creek bed makes a fantastic walking track.
If you are looking for a unique family holiday, or you are an artist and want to do some songwriting or painting, or just need to get out of the rat race and chill out, then this could be just the place for you.
10 mins to Murtoa, 15 mins to the Dooen Hotel, 20 mins to Horsham, 30 mins to Warracknabeal, 40 mins to the Grampians or Mt Arapilies.
A perfect base to explore the renowned Silo Art Trail, Murtoa Stick Shed, local lakes and waterways, state and national parks, and many other regional attractions.
But if you are simply into nature or hiking, then just head north or south along the creek, and you will be able to walk for hours and take in the unique scenery.
Please note, the property is 'pet friendly' but we respectfully ask that pets are not taken inside of the accommodation.

A great spot for big groups, the commercial kitchen was well stocked with appliances and utensils to cook lots of meals for everyone. Plenty of space around the grounds to relax in. Also plenty of great things to see nearby

We loved staying at the tiny cabin. This is our second stay at Mayfair and it gets better every time. The location is unparalleled, right in front of a creek. The facilities are top notch - we love the fire stove - sparkling clean and comfortable. There is plenty to do around, from hiking to antiques shopping. The people are friendly and absolutely everything is worth the trip, not least our hosts. Thanks to Paul and his family for keeping this magic place running. Make sure you bring some carrots for Gobi and Mo, the camels. They love them!

We loved the cabin in the winter. Phill was a great host and gave us the advice we needed to plan our days. One of the most beautiful nature experiences we've had.
It felt like we packed 3 weeks into 3 days.

Our family loved the uniqueness of the truck. It had everything we needed. We loved the attention to detail eg. The pre-prepared wood in the pot belly stove. Well stocked with crockery etc. Queen bed was comfy. Can imagine how nice it would be to sit out in the deck on a warmer evening to watch the sunset. Loved it!

Mount Arapiles Sunrise
The morning sunrise on at the lookout on Mount Arapiles is unforgettable and you can drive to the top if walking is not your style.
