Ellesmere Park Farm Stay was inspired by our trip following the stock routes of NSW by horse drawn vehicles. Many people commented they would love to do that, which gave us the idea of sharing our amazing journey with others. Our camping area is a lot more comfortable than we endured with a well set up camp kitchen, green lawns and friendly animals all in one area. Our mascot, "Lucky lamb", is an attraction all of her own and who else can say "Kevin bacon" lives here! Our farm stay offers a large grassed camping area with camp kitchen. We are located within easy driving distance of Greens lake and the Waranga basin for fishing, boating and swimming activities and only 15km from Rushworth and the historic Whroo township. Campers are welcome to join us as we feed the animals and can book horse drawn wagon rides during their stay. Fires and pets allowed (read Listing rules). There is only one toilet and one shower available, it is recommended that campers are self sufficient

Site 3 - Ellesmere Park Farm Stay

Ellesmere Park Farm Stay. If I had to describe it in three words, they would be 'beautiful', 'amazing', and '#dacatsrADORBS'. The animals there were very calm, cool, collected, and very demure. Especially the family of cats there; 5 black kittens, there black cat parents + a rando black cat. And the goats and cows, lama/alpacas and horses were cool as well. And the peacock. And loads of other animals. At night, you absolutely MUST go star hopping; the view of stars is INCREDIBLE. Ellesmere Park Farm Stay is a place you won't forget soon. :] Celine P.S. Don't forget to bring insect repellent. Or you'll regret it. T_T

Site 8 - Ellesmere Park Farm Stay

We had a lovely stay at the site. Opened lawn area and lucky we were the only group there. Well maintained and very clean. Everyone was friendly, very kind and helpful. Belinda lent us the batteries cause we forgot to buy some. There are fire drums to borrow and they will help you set one up in front of your site in no time! perfect for late night smores and warmth on the chill night. Our pooch also had one of the best weekends in his life running around saying hi to Timber the calf. All of the animals are cute and friendly but they are also stay in their areas a bit further from the site—no smell or any disturbances during the stay. You can see sunset and sunrise plus heaps of stars if the sky is clear. Definitely will go back again :)

Site 2 - Ellesmere Park Farm Stay

Lovely, small farm well away from the beaten track. A variety of animals on the property for those looking for a true country experience. Good camp kitchen with seating and large fridge. Gas BBQ facilities as well as power. Basic flushing toilet & shower, but adequate for needs and with hot water. I heard very minimal traffic on the road and enjoyed all the usual farm sounds. Would love to return again one day.

Site 6 - Ellesmere Park Farm Stay

Our friend and his family stayed at this site (Site 6) next to us (Site 7). They were very happy with their stay and will also gladly come back again. The kids had a great time playing with the campers' other kids, visiting the farm animals, playing on the playground, shooting hoops, and roasting marshmallows over the camp fire. The dogs had a great time too with plenty of space to run around in.
