About this property

Authentic Farm Style Retreat - Perfect for families and large groups!

A gorgeous authentic country-style home that sleeps large groups of up to 11 and provides the perfect home base for a relaxing country getaway. “Ahh, the serenity” is exactly what you’ll be sighing as you sit back and enjoy gorgeous mountain views at this peaceful Bonnie Doon retreat. Positioned at the top of a hill, you can gaze over kilometres of the Victorian High Country rolling hills and eye the popular waters of Lake Eildon. Only a 40-minute drive from the famous ski fields of Mt Buller, there's always something to do!

Fantastic Belkampar Retreat
Thoroughly enjoyed our 3 night stay at the home.Was inviting and had a perfect kitchen to cook for the family and we enjoyed sitting in the sunroom for chatting and lounge for gaming and piano being played by our teen friend. The children saw lots of native animals and enjoyed going on walks along Dry Creek road. Great location near Bonnie Doon bistro, Mansfield and Benalla.

Relaxing country getaway
The photos don't do this place justice! It's really lovely with beautiful views of the hills and heaps of space. The garden is gorgeous and the house has everything you need for a comfortable weekend away. We were pleasantly surprised by a set of bunks, plus a single bed, in one of the rooms (which meant none of the kids had to sleep in with their parents). A few points to note - there is a small pond out the front so we kept an eagle eye on the little ones, and there's an old school trampoline (no nets or pads) which the kids absolutely loved! This would have been a 5 star review if the beds weren't so unfortunately uncomfortable. One of them has a metal bedframe that squeaks every time you move on it (very noisy for an unsettled sleeper) and in the main room, there seemed to be a broken spring that pokes up right in the middle).
