Writer's Cottage

Escape to Writers Cottage at Gardenfarm, a storybook farm in the green hills of Gippsland. Come for a quiet break together, time with a good book, or a few days exploring the countryside.

The cottage sleeps up to three guests, with a queen bedroom and a second bedroom with a single bed. There’s a kitchen for preparing your own meals, a bathroom with a shower over the bath, heating and Wi-Fi. With no television, it’s a lovely opportunity to slow down.

Wander beside the stream, enjoy forest walks in the fresh country air, and watch native birds visiting the ponds alongside our resident Pekin ducks and Pilgrim geese. Bonnie, our Border Collie, may politely invite you to a game of fetch. On warm days, cool off in the stream; when conditions and fire restrictions allow, finish the evening with stories around a campfire.

Spend your days enjoying the farm or exploring further afield. Mini Haha waterfall and swimming hole is about ten minutes down the road. Port Albert, Tarra-Bulga National Park and Ninety Mile Beach offer lovely outings, while Wilsons Prom makes a full-day adventure.

Yarram is around 20 minutes away by sealed road, with cafés, supermarkets and places to eat. The drive to the cottage takes you through beautiful country scenery.

Small, quiet dogs accustomed to living indoors may be welcome by prior arrangement. To help us protect the farm animals and wildlife, dogs must be kept on a leash outdoors. Please contact Bob before booking with your dog’s breed and a little about them.
