Located just 1.5 hours from the city, come and create your own Riverlea experience; have a relaxing getaway with loved ones in the Riverlea farmhouse, host a dinner or event in our fireplace warmed versatile and chic entertainment space (pictured), run a retreat or enquire to discuss your vision.

Riverlea is a large property with 2 houses on it, set in a beautiful rural setting overlooking the kangaroo filled flood plains of the Goulburn river. With a detached transformed car port now a stunning multi purpose entertainment space, the farmhouse has been used for 30ths, 80ths, yoga retreats and stunning formal occasions.

With heating and cooling, Riverlea is suitable all year round, but it truly shines in the Victorian winters, transforming into something of a winter wonderland. Picture yourself under the moonlight, dipping between the icy pool and the steaming hot tub, only to warm up after by one of the roaring fireplaces, sipping on your sundowner of choice.

If you're looking for some action, we are surrounded by great wineries, cafes, close to Seymour Golf and Racing Club, as well as the nearby Australian Lighthorse Memorial Park. a magnificent walk through history.

The farmhouse itself includes 4 bedrooms, a spacious kitchen, a cosy living room with a fireplace and large TV, 2 bathrooms featuring a huge bath, a North and South facing deck with a pizza oven.

Please note: We have two dwellings on the property, so the pool and Spa area is shared when both are booked. And of course, pets are indeed welcome.

Our little time at riverlea was just what we needed. It's a total escape and for a minute or even a few days you feel like you may live in another era, fire place lit 24/7 (albeit bye wood, which didn...'t seem to fit the setting) green rolling hills with cows and roo's and no other sign of civilisation! Lush! The house is well appointed and spacious and clean, very cold by night byo thermals but that's the county I guess only heating is fire! Like I said, another era! Step back to 2026 and you have a spa at 40 morning to night and the pool at the ready for cold plunges. We loved the pizza oven and the open space, thought the rec space could have had more rec then space but in any case we'll be back because by the time we left we knew cows by first name and we need to see them again!

Such a perfect stay! The pool! the beautiful farmhouse, the incredible bushland surrounds, the fact you can bring your dog, the spa, the grapevine of my dreams that drapes a beautiful sunfilled verand...ah, the Goulburn River just a stone's throw away, the egret that visit, the spacious comfort of a luxurious stay in such an awesome location. Love everything about this property! Did I mention the pool!?!

A little cellar door with an amazing host who took us around and showed how everything was made and the beautiful wines up for grabs!
Seymour Bushland Reserve

Seymour Bushland Reserve

We hiked through Seymour Bushland Reserve. The place is teeming with wildlife. Tread lightly and make sure to look up as you might catch a koala having a snooze in the treetops
The Brewer's Table

The Brewers Table

We scored a quality coffee and some breaky from The Brewer’s Table in Seymour. We then got lucky with a weekend market pop-up across the road, where the grazing continued with gozlemes, donuts and a cheeky pint of beer while local musicians kept the vibes up.

Authentic Panini In Seymour

Hanging for a good coffee and hearty sandwich, we consulted a local friend for the best cafe in town. They immediately recommended Baracca Lane, a small Italian deli on the main street of Seymour. The coffee was good but the meatball Panini was something else entirely, would make the drive again just for that.

Take a moment to reflect on the sacrifice of the 60,000 service men and women along this commemorative walk, which features real life memorabilia.
