The ShareFarmers Cottage 1

Located on the Great Alpine Rd, 9km from Myrtleford and 22km from Bright, this 2 bedroom house makes and ideal base to explore much of north east Victoria. Bush views, kangaroos, sheep and alpacas are all at your back door. Enjoy the rural life! Relax in your rural surrounds or get out and enjoy our region. We are centrally located to the popular tourist regions of Bright, Beechworth and the King Valley so you'll get to choose where you want to spent each day. The cottage has bush views from the rear and views of Mt Buffalo from the deck. There are sheep and alpacas roaming in the paddocks. We will happily spend time with you feeding the animals or with a walk in the bush with prior arrangement. The Murray to Mountains Rail Trail can be accessed a few hundred metres down the road in either direction. This property is only available from April to December. While we do our best to provide you with a safe environment for your stay, this is also a working farm and therefore some elements of risk do exist. Children should be supervised while outside, stay out of sheds and not use farm machinery as play equipment/areas. We will endeavour to greet you on arrival however we both also have jobs away from the property and this is not always possible. We will provide the check in details once your booking is confirmed. We want our guests to feel comfortable in their surrounds. If you want to find out more about the farm and the surrounding area we will gladly have a chat. If it's privacy you want then we don't need to interact much. Please don't be shy if you have any questions! Ovens may be a small hamlet, but there is plenty around if you know where to look. The local pub (4km) is family friendly and serves hearty pub meals. For a pleasant surprise stop in at the pumpkin seed factory. Heading towards Bright you can find a yummy treat at the berry farm (8km) or feed the all of the cute animals at the deer and emu farm. Amazing views from the deck there too - a perfect spot to enjoy a drink or meal! Being a rural area, public transport is limited so a car is recommended. For the fit and energetic you could just bring your bicycle and you will find plenty of interesting places to ride in this cycling mecca. The Murray to Mountains Rail Trail means that you don't even have to ride on the road in most cases. A waste bin is located near the front gate for all general waste. In an effort to help minimize our impact on the environment, we support recycling where possible. Please leave recyclable items in the box provided outside, which can be later transferred to the collection bin. We can also use your fruit & vegetable scraps in our compost heap or equally the sheep love them! Set these aside if you wish to contribute, or throw your scraps into the paddock with the sheep.
