Farm Cottage B&B

Description

Located 10kms west of Bendemeer in a peaceful valley. Enjoy waking up to bird calls, views of rolling hills and gumtrees. An early morning cuppa on your sun drenched verandah overlooking the paddocks as the cattle graze, is a relaxing way to start your day.

Have a stroll by the creek or take a picnic (hampers require notice). Walk among the cows and calves as they graze. Little Victoria was found in the paddock almost dead. After lots of loving care, she is now bounding around and growing well. Children are welcome to help feed her hay and calf nuts.

A gourmet breakfast, included in the tariff, consists of juice, fruits, free range eggs and fresh herbs picked straight from the garden, finished with homemade jams from our own fruit, tea or freshly ground coffee. Local produce is used when in season.

Or should you prefer, a breakfast basket can be brought to the cottage to have at your leisure.

Delicious dinners are also available and require advance notice please. (72 hours is preferable)

Or for a romantic celebration, a candlelit dinner, soft music and later check out are our specialty.

We are environmentally friendly and non-smoking.

Visit craft shops, wineries and lavender farm, in the local area, and further afield antique shops, museums, woolen mill, berry farm, waterfalls and gorges. We can arrange for a helicopter flight over the gorges, a picnic lunch and pick up from the front paddock. Go trout fishing in the McDonald River or at sunset look for the platypus under the old bridge. Bendemeer hosts a rodeo (Feb 13th 2012), art show(20-22nd & 26-29th Apr 2012)and the Grey Fergie Tractor Muster on 24/25th March 2012.

We are halfway between Sydney and Brisbane so spend a few days exploring the beautiful New England region, or have a relaxing stopover.

You will leave invigorated by the fresh country air!
