Take your weekend getaways here at Hilltop, the perfect farm staycation for vacationers looking to experience the unhurried backcountry lifestyle of our family-operated farm. The ideal off-grid retreat close to Broadford and Kilmore's exciting attractions and activities that vacationers come back to on their weekend trips.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Please advise that there will be some animal and tractor noise during your stay with us as we are a working farm that cares for animals and crops. Keep in mind that there may be other residences on the property that guests will rent out, so you may run into them when roaming around the property.
The space
The Hilltop is a perfect farm staycation for vacationers looking to experience living off-grid with a well-equipped kitchenette, pot-bellied stove, queen-sized bed up in the loft, and a couch on the ground floor. If you plan to cook, the kitchenette has everything to cook your light meals, such as cooking tools, cutlery, and a portable electric cooler fridge.
The bathroom, however, follows ecologically sustainable principles, including a waterless eco-friendly compost toilet, hand basin, and shower (gas heated for hot showers). It focuses on satisfying people's needs with natural resources and processes to save water through using eco-friendly toilets to save the environment.
If you plan to bring your soap, shampoo, or toothpaste, we ask that you bring biodegradable products to ensure that greywater runoffs flow easily and do not harm the environment. Thank you!
