Wairere Rest is a rare find, sheltered within our farm's unique heritage gardens. There are so many beautiful nooks & crannies to explore and rest around the gardens that its best to just scroll through the images and see what takes your fancy. Pick some produce or flowers to enjoy while you rest, or find a shady tree to finish your favourite book. The cottage itself offers everything you could need to keep you comfortable and help you unwind. The modern furnishings blend beautifully with vintage pieces, reflecting a 'high country cattlemen's hut' vibe. The interiors include the hosts favourite things such as Robert Gordon ceramics, Dindi Natural skin products and various curiosities gathered from markets and antique stores around Australia. Enjoy a drink or movie to the crackling of our indoor or outdoor fireplaces, lazy breakfasts in bed listening to birdsong, or perhaps slip on a robe & take an indulgent soak in our outdoor tub overlooking the farm. Guest Note: Wairere Homestead is located next to the cottage. Rest assured we do not book more than one group at a time at Wairere so you will have the entire property to yourselves for the duration of your stay.

I have been hosting short stay accommodation in Victoria and Tasmania for over 7 years. I am a premier host and super host on other booking platforms and have over 300 reviews. I am also a private host who manages my own properties so you can rest assured that all bookings are attended to personally by me and that you have a host who cares about my guests having an enjoyable stay and that I will address any concerns promptly.
