Nestled among the trees on a quiet hillside at 700m, this charming off-grid cabin offers a peaceful escape on a 5-acre property surrounded by farmland and bush. Wake up to birdsong, breathe the fresh air, and enjoy leafy green views from every window.

The self-contained cabin comfortably sleeps five across two queen bedrooms and a single bed — perfect for two couples or a family. Inside, an open-plan living area with a slow combustion wood heater and split system keeps you cosy year-round, alongside a functional kitchen, bathroom, and washing machine.

Step outside and the adventure begins. Mapped gravel rides start from the cabin door, with a scenic 10km downhill run to the Indigo Epic Adventure Trail. Bushwalking tracks, farm gate produce, and the local Stanley Pub are all within easy reach — and Beechworth is just 10 minutes away.

Private yet connected to nature, guests are welcome to roam the property and discover its rich local flora and fauna. The cabin is located close to the main house but is well screened by trees and native bush.

We're a young family who feel privileged to live in Stanley and love to share this special part of the world with others. We escaped the Melbourne city life and now embrace the wealth of adventures at our front door.

These are the exclusive natural wonders and outdoor activities within the property boundaries.

Native Wildlife

A diverse array of animal and bird life visit the cabin. See how many species of native birds you can spot, regulars include kookaburras, black cockatoos, galahs, eastern spinebills, gang gangs and spotted pardalot. Keep an eye out for the eastern grey kangaroos and occasional echidna and koala.

Outdoor Yoga

Between two drops, I enjoyed a yoga session rocked by the soft music of the wind and the birds. There is a yoga mat for you to use in the cabin.

Wildlife Watching

The 5-acre property is surrounded by gum trees and bushland and is a haven for native birds and wildlife watching. We loved wandering around and spotting koalas and king parrots or just observing from the warmth of the cabin the kangaroos skipping in the rain.
