Sorry, no wedding requests or wedding eve/night bookings please.

The space
The barn is located on one of the quietest roads in Red Hill. Situated on a rural property, your nearest neighbours are our small herds of cows and sheep. Birdlife abounds on the property's dam. You won't hear traffic noise and can wake to birdsong. The views of rolling hills are spectacular.
The barn has a strict limit of 6 people, with a maximum of 4 adults.
The barn is light and bright, with unlimited wifi and a big dining table for working at. Consider a mid-week remote-work getaway where you can work via Zoom.

Guest access
You are welcome to roam the barn paddock which incorporates the olive grove, vines and picturesque dam. As this is a working farm with operating machinery and cattle, please stay within the expansive barn paddock and leave any gates as you find them (open or closed).

Other things to note
We ask guests to bring their own linen (top and bottom sheets and pillowcases for a king bed and singles). We rely on tanked rainwater so don’t have the capacity to launder all the linen. Bringing your own linen makes the nightly rate more affordable for guests compared to similar accommodation options. Linen hire can be arranged. Towels, doonas, pillows and quilts are provided. A portacot and highchair are available. There is an open fireplace and heating/ air-conditioning downstairs. The bedrooms have air-conditioning and heating. The bathroom has heating.

Neighbourhood highlights

The barn is located in the heart of Red Hill with restaurants, wineries and food stores within a short drive. Port Phillip Bay and Westernport Bay are equal distances away. A number of beaches are no more than 15 minutes drive.
Our favourite restaurant, Polperro, is just around the corner. Foxey's Hangout, another favourite, is perfect for lunch (and where our grapes get made into wine). Get great coffee and gourmet food at Red Hill Cellar and Pantry - the area's loveliest supermarket in Red Hill South. Visit Johnny Ripe for the best apple pies ever.

We love our little slice of rural paradise in Red Hill and are happy to welcome you to experience it. I worked for many years in hospitality in my earlier career, including in five star hotels. My later career has been in fashion design and interiors. In more recent years we've had some amazing experiences in Airbnb properties around the world with our four children.
