Rose Cottage - a rural retreat on a mixed farm | Other in Neerim East
2 Bedroom Place in Neerim East
ROSE COTTAGE
Built in the 1890s, this was the original farm cottage that has since been updated to make it cosy and relaxed self contained, private accommodation for up to 4 adults.
The owners are very ecologically conscious having had solar power and solar hot water for more than 20 years. The solar power is now stored using a 20 kWh battery system. The water used in the cottage is pure country rain water.
The Cottage:-
-- open plan living and dining area with adjoining kitchen.
-- 2 bedrooms. The main bedroom has a queen bed, second bedroom has a double plus a single bed. We encourage guests to bring their own linen (Sheets, pillow cases and bath towels). If linen is requested please note the additional fee of $75 per stay. Doonas, blankets, pillows and tea towels are provided.
-- main bathroom has a toilet, shower, basin and laundry facilities.
-- second toilet with basin is adjacent to the bedrooms.
-- fully equipped kitchen including Saeco coffee machine
-- living room includes a wood heater and also a reverse cycle heater/air conditioner.
--an enclosed carport
-- small fully fenced garden. Access to the rest of the garden/farm
SPRINGWOOD FARM
-- only 1.5 hours from the Melbourne CBD, the Neerim area is a hidden gem.
The cottage is located on a working farm located in one of the greenest and most fertile regions of Victoria. While much of the 22 ha farm is used for fattening prime beef, the farm also used to produce walnuts and blueberries in season.
Many species of birds, including King Parrots which we often feed. Kangaroos regularly come out of the forest to graze in our paddock below the cottage and, at night, you need to be vigilant to avoid the wombats that come out to eat on the roadsides.
After wandering around the farm enjoy the peace and tranquility of the cottage, either sampling the local wine and fresh produce in front of the fire or sitting on the front verandah enjoying the sounds of the birds in the garden and the forest and watching the Kangaroos as the sun sets.
