Farmstay vacation rentals in Murray River

My family had a wonderful stay at The Barn. Alison and Ross are lovely hosts and very helpful with clear instructions. The property is great and comfortable for about 7-8 people with all bedrooms on level 1 (upstairs) and 2 bathrooms downstairs. Great size indoor living and outdoor bbq area, including a fire pit for cool evenings, and the paddocks surrounding the property have some friendly rams. You also get to see heaps of kangaroos in the morning and around sunset. Clean and comfortable property and I would highly recommend staying here when visiting Healesville. Only thing missing were some extra bathroom amenities (toilettries) proportionate to 7-8 people staying but I’m sure if you request Alison and Ross they will ensure to make it available for your stay! Cheers and wishing Alison and Ross all the very best!!

Had a really relaxing time great place to get away and enjoy time with family and friends

We couldn’t have asked for more over the long weekend. Luci and Duncan are a great hosts, super responsive to my messages. Had a great conversation with them. I will never forget the sunrise we witnessed here, right over the mountain ranges, was nothing less than a spectacle! We got to see the kangaroos and cattle around the property, the kids loved it! We will be back here during winter. Thanks so much for everything Luci.

Beautiful property and made to feel right at home . The extra special touches like a baked cake on arrival and fresh homemade bread and bacon and eggs for breakfast was so personably . The house was clean and welcoming. Loved the friendly dogs, the bird life and gorgeous horses. We will most definitely be back again with hopefully a longer stay. Thank you Jacky & Tony

Great location being close to Bendigo but also far enough away that it was peaceful.

Thanks for having us! We had such a wonderful time! The place is well-furnished, cozy, and equipped with everything we needed. Our toddler had an amazing time exploring the farm, interacting with the animals, picking fresh strawberries and veg, and enjoying fresh eggs for breakfast. It was such a lovely getaway and farm experience for our family including our dog. :) We would highly recommend!

We have just spent 4 nights here. The cute little farmhouse overlooks paddocks and misty hills with cow, sheep and birds! It's on private property a little way from town so it is very quiet and private. The inside is nicely renovated and has everything you might need to be comfortable. The directions online described how to get there perfectly (hint: don't trust Google Maps!) We had car troubles on our second day and were navigating a pretty stressful situation. The hosts couldn't have been more helpful and kind. We had a lovely stay, Thanks Martine and Daniel.

place was great and had everything we needed at a reasonable price. The kids loved the farm animals and were kept entertained throughout our stay. Would recommend to anyone looking for a place in the outskirts of Melbourne

Such a lovely and extremely peaceful location with lots to do in surrounding areas that are very close to this idillic property. We would highly recommend. Also, very fur baby friendly. Thank you

It was a delightful retreat, incredibly tranquil, and we were warmly welcomed by two adorable cats. I would absolutely return for another stay.

this was one of the most breathtaking spaces I’ve ever had the pleasure of staying at. I couldn’t recommend it more x

We stayed one night as we were traveling though. The cabin was compact but comfortable and had all the essentials. The sanctuary is absolutely amazing and the animals were incredible. You have to visit Ray the ostrich and see him dance. So awesome. At first we were a little wary of the huge free ranging turkey but after getting to know him, we became best friends, and he followed us around the farm acting as our tour guide! He is a beautiful creature. We love Tommy the friendly turkey :D there's also a vast range of other impressive animals like camels and Canadian elks. It's like having a zoo all to yourself. We appreciated the late check out so we had time to enjoy the farm in the morning before we left. We met one of the hosts who was very welcoming and showed us around, it was great to hear some of the stories behind these animal rescues. You can see these animals get a lot of love and live happy lives here. Great place and hope to be back one day.

We had a peaceful and relaxing stay. Star gazing in the hot tub was our highlight. Would recommended it for anyone who loves the farm and being with nature. We saw alpacas and kanagaroos in the backyard. Very high quality kitchenware when cooking up a storm. Great night sleep, the mattress and pillows were comfy! Only feedback is to have entrance lights/driveway lights to the cottages. Note, we arrived quite late in the dark. Otherwise, loved the experience!

We had a fantastic stay at the cottage on the winery! The cottage was lovely—clean, cozy, and surrounded by beautiful vineyard views. Samantha was a wonderful host, making us feel welcome from the start and even treating us to a wine tasting at the cellar door, which was a highlight of our trip. A perfect place to relax and enjoy great wine. Highly recommend!

This house had everything we needed for 3 friends to have a weekend in the Barossa - the main bathroom was huge and the beds were particularly comfy. It was a great base to walk to restaurants on the main street of Tanunda, and an easy drive to some lovely wineries. The alpacas were a bonus and cute company to have at the side of the yard.

Angelika was a fantastic host, and the place was perfect - as described and seen in the photos. Clean, comfortable, and well-equipped. Would be happy to stay again

Very nice place with a beautiful view, instructions were super clear and would definitely stay again

We had an amazing stay at Frans place! The home was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had all the amenities I needed for a comfortable visit. The location was perfect—close to wineries and amneties , yet quiet enough for a peaceful retreat. Fran was incredibly kind and responsive, providing great recommendations and making sure everything was perfect throughout my stay. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting! Thank you Fran

Lovely house, very secluded and comfortable. The dogs especially enjoyed the spacious backyard (note it’s not fully fenced).

Lovely stay that did exactly what we needed to with separate rooms and for travelling with a large car and trailer, super easy to park in spacious surrounds. Two minutes out onto the motorway into the city, so a good location too if you don’t need to be right in the middle of town and are self sufficient for food. Although the Keilor hotel wasn’t far for a beer and nice feed. Good stay!

I spent the morning of my wedding at the barn and it was the most gorgeous, peaceful, and beautiful space to be in. It was open and spacious with incredible views. I was spoilt being at the barn on my special day.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Lunar Lodge! The setting was peaceful and beautiful, and we instantly felt at home. The real highlight was the incredible animals—the affectionate and funny chickens had us laughing, and the peacock with its babies was just magical to see. The accommodation was comfortable, clean, and had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. Tegan was a fantastic host, making sure we had everything we needed while giving us the perfect balance of privacy and warmth. We can’t wait to come back again in the future! Thank you for such a special experience.

Stunning property with beautiful views, perfect for a quiet weekend away. Very spacious and beautiful home. Thanks Jan and Larry!

Jenny’s home is very clean & beautiful. It is very comfortable & perfectly customised to our needs. She communicates in advance on the changes in road conditions & electric supply & is able to respond fast when unexpected situation crops up. She & Lucy gave very good dining recommendations. We love our stay in Jenny’s place & would love to come back if opportunity arises. Thank you Jenny, Lucy & Chris for a memorable experience.
