About this property

Merricks Stable - The Hayshed

The Hayshed is the perfect retreat for 2 guests to enjoy all seasons. Whether it's relaxing on the deck with a glass of local wine overlooking the picturesque surrounding farmland, or lounging by the cosy wood fire in the cooler months with a hot chocolate and good book in hand, this lovingly restored hayshed will captivate you from the moment you open the rustic front door.

From the moment you walk in, The Hayshed welcomes you with an abundance of natural light, cathedral ceilings, beautiful timber floors and spectacular views across the surrounding farmland. This cosy and beautiful cottage encourages you to connect with nature, relax and unwind.

A generous master bedroom offers a luxurious king size bed with cosy linen doona and fresh cotton sheets that beckons you to retreat for a relaxing nights' sleep and indulge in slow mornings in bed.

Beyond the barn door the bathroom welcomes you with a beautifully hand-crafted vanity, high quality towels and local Victorian hand soap, body wash, shampoo and conditioner from Dindi Naturals that will soothe, nourish and revitalise your skin.

The modern kitchen has everything you need to help you prepare all your meals and includes a full-size fridge, microwave/convection oven, gas burner cooktop, dishwasher, toaster and kettle. We also provide a selection of teas, coffees, sugar, hot chocolate, full cream milk, salt & pepper and olive oil.

For additional provisions we encourage you to visit our local supermarket in Balnarring Village, only a 10 minute drive from The Hayshed, or explore and discover some of the delicious local wine and fresh produce, artisan cheese, and locally distilled Gin and Whisky the peninsula has to offer.
