River Gardens Axedale Pet Friendly Farmstay B&B
Description
You’ll love this 133 acre pet friendly working farm located on the bank of the Campaspe River. After a cooked breakfast, wander in the gardens, feed the goats, sheep, chickens and ducks , or stroll along the river banks. The river is full of fish if fishing is your thing. We are only 5kms from Heathcote Raceway, minutes from Knowsley Flight School and we are the half way point on the O’Keefe Rail trail. We are also only 20 minutes from Bendigo & Heathcote & 15kms to Lake Eppalock The space The River Gardens Homestead is an off the grid farmstead that overlooks the Campaspe river. Set in nearly 2 acres of spectacular gardens with water features and right on the banks of the Campaspe river, guests are ensured of having a restful holiday. The unit is under the farmstead roofline but is totally self contained with its own entrance. Only the laundry is a shared facility. Guests who are looking for more action can visit both Bendigo and Heathcote . Both towns are just a 20 minutes drive from Rivergardens Axedale or take a 15km trip to Lake Eppalock to swim, waterski or fish. While pets are welcome please note they must be kept on a lead to protect our livestock and the pet fee must be paid or you may be refused entry. Guest access Guests have their own entrance to their rooms, which includes a kitchen with hot plates, oven, full size fridge, microwave and coffee machine and their own ensuite with walk in double shower. There is a split system heating/cooling unit and a fan. Guests are encouraged to explore the 133 acres of the farm including over 400 metres of Campaspe river frontage and approximately 2 acres of spectacular manicured gardens Access to the rest of the house is not permitted. Other things to note We are totally off grid with solar power, tank water and septic sewerage system. Please try to be mindful of this and to keep showers short, and to turn off lights, air conditioning etc. when not needed. The tank water is filtered and completely safe to drink. We try to provide produce from our own farm when possible for breakfast. All scraps are recycled as either animal feed or compost. Jams, chutney and relish made from our produce is available to buy. Finally, as septic is quite fussy, please only flush toilet paper down the toilet. There are bins provided in the bathroom for everything else. Thank you in advance for respecting our space, Wendy and Mark
