Alphington is a lovely old farmhouse with lots of charcter. It's full of stuff but is very comfortable and spacious. The bathroom is large and nicely renovated. The eat-in kitchen opens onto the verandah.
The garden has been neglected and is now overgrown and full of rabbits but the outlook over farming country, and the Great Western Tiers at the back of the house is beautiful. We very much enjoyed having breakfast and afternoon tea on the verandah in the peaceful countryside.
The location is great, only a couple of kilometres out of town, far enough away from the noise of the music festival that happened to be on while we were there.
It was a great base for bushwalking, the caves, wildlife sanctuary, and Deloraine.
