About this property
Dairy House @ Harvest Farm - Idyllic cottage surrounded with mountain views.
Harvest Farm is an 18-acre property located just outside the township of Healesville, overlooking the Healesville Sanctuary and surrounded by mountain views. Harvest Farm has two entirely separate self contained two bedroom cottages - Harvest House and Dairy House. Inside each is two beautifully detailed king size bedrooms, a large bathroom with spa and windows to the garden, fully equipped kitchen and open plan living with the wood fire, complete the cottages.
On a gentle north facing slope, Harvest Farm has a large kitchen garden with guests welcome to pick for their meals and to roam the property and its spacious gardens filled with roses, rhododendrons, decades old camellias and mature trees including a majestic 130 year old oak tree.
Enjoy the green lawns, play ground and tree house for the kids, huge vegetable garden, a spot of cricket or relax on a chair under a shady tree with views to the mountains. When the temperature plummets, light the fire, pour a big glass of red and watch the mists and clouds through the valley.

About the host
Hosted by Karina & Bob
Having reached that time in life when the kids have grown up and moved out, we asked ourselves "what next"? After a life time of living in wonderful Melbourne (other than stints overseas and interstate), we decided it was time for a "tree change". Where the air is clear, the night sky bright with stars, where we hear birds and frogs rather than traffic, and where our gaze is only interrupted by mountains and trees. A place where time slows down and we can connect more deeply with people and nature. And where we can share our piece of paradise with guests looking for some respite from the everyday bustle of life.
Why they chose this property
Only an hour or so out of Melbourne, just a few minutes drive from the delightful township of Healesville, we are perfectly located in the middle of the Yarra Valley and the myriad attractions it offers to visitors. Harvest Farm itself is simply one of the most scenic and idyllic places. The expansive ornamental and vegetable gardens, the sounds of our chickens, ducks, cows and sheep calling to each other, the majestic trees and mountain views, and the privacy afforded to our guests in their own self-contained cottages, make this a place that is truly unique.
