1 Bedroom House in Macclesfield

Summary:
Your hosts are Philip & Christine who are super friendly and love hosting guests.

They have a working bird farm and also have a variety of other animals including cows, deer, sheep, goats, pigs, exotic parrots/birds, chickens and more (animals can change from time to time but all can be hand fed). They also have citrus trees (grapefruit, orange, lemon, kaffir lime & mandarin), dams with trout/yabbies, native birds and wildlife on property.

Your stay includes continental breakfast.

The Space:
The guest room has 1 queen bed, 1 double bed, 1 double sofa bed and 1 single sofa bed with a private bathroom attached to the main room. There is a split system air-conditioner for heating and cooling in the room. The small kitchenette contains a bar fridge, microwave, small dishwasher, toaster and kettle. A portacot and kids high chair is available on request. There is a BBQ on the balcony for if guests would like to cook their own lunch or dinner. The large room also has a dining table and a lounge area with a TV.

Guests have their own living area with a balcony which has magnificent view over the Dandenongs with not another house in sight. Guests can watch the horses in there paddock down below them, the sunsets on that side of the property which is also a highlight for our guests.

Their farm is a working bird farm with 160 pairs of pure and rare parrots which they incubate and hand rear the eggs/babies that require feeding every two hours. They often have a lot of baby animals too.

Christine loves to cook and entertain for guests. Lunches or dinners can be arranged for $50 per adult/per meal and $25 per child/per meal (3-12 years old). Lunches and dinners are 3 course meals and there is always plenty of food. Christine can also do a High Tea which is $25 per adult and $15 per child (includes milkshake for kids). We could also organise a picnic lunch so guests can enjoy a trip to Emerald Lake and see Puffing Billy or go fishing at the trout farm (to be arranged before visit).

Staying on Phil & Christine's farm, you will have an experience of a lifetime! Please note Phil & Christine have all of the appropriate wildlife licenses for their animals.

Guest Access:
Phil & Christine are on 20 acres which is fenced all around with deer fencing (approx. 7 foot) and electric gates at the entrance with an intercom connecting to the main house, which makes it very secure for guests to park their car and feel safe.

The Neighborhood:
Their farm is situated less than 50km from Melbourne CBD. Emerald is the closest shopping centre which is about a 10 min drive from their home and Monbulk is around 15 mins away, both have major stores without the hustle and bustle of bigger towns.

Getting Around:
It is bes to self-drive to the farm or book your own transfers.

Interaction with Guests:
We try to make our guests feel like part of our family and spoil them a little, especially children, they don’t want to go home.

Summary: We were just after a place to stay in the hills for a nearby appointment, but got so much more. Chris and Phil were brilliant hosts, from the lovely roast meal to a full tour of the property. Highly recommend - we will be going back.
