Everything is lovely at Lavender Farm. The house is clean and spacious. The beds are comfortable. The kitchen is fully equipped with all the cooking utensils you might need to fix a quick breakfast or supper. The host has stocked up the fridge with ample supply of milk, juice, eggs and condiments. The homemade wholemeal bread was yummy and the cake was really a nice touch. There is also a barbecue set provided. There are also washer and dryer for those staying longer but reluctant to carry dirty laundry home.
The property is on a farm (as the name suggests). The surrounding is quiet and the view is mainly the endless lush greenery. You may want to have a quiet drink in the dining area overlooking the green field, or on the verandah with equally good view. If you are looking for company, the host's 2 very friendly dogs will be happy to offer their service.
The host provided us with information on local chef who would be happy to take your orders and deliver to the place. The nearest eateries and supermarket are in Healesville, which is about 5 minutes drive.
As we are a family with children aged 2-11, we are happy to find that the place is near to some tourist attractions that are good for kids. The Healesville Sanctuary is about 4km away (must visit!). Others are the Yarra Valley railway and a u-pick fruit orchard.
Highly recommended!
