There is an organic farmers market on every Saturday morning until 1pm, or just head down into Healesville and enjoy some of the fantastic local cafe's and restaurants.
The cabin is heated by a full size Coonara wood heater as well as a split system. Please ask for assistance if you do not know how to light the fire. There is a ceiling fan and air conditioning for relief in the hot weather.
There are loads of bicycle and walking tracks nearby. BYO bikes. You can laze around our property and admire the scenery and wildlife, including kangaroos, echidnas, native birds and our horses.
We have adequate paddocks for you to bring a couple of horses. Horse riding is straight out from the property along the road, or you can float to the beginning of the Bicentennial Trail which is only 8kms away.
