    “the scenery and set up were stunning. the Hosts were so friendly and helpful, and even included our little granddaughter in their lamb feeding times. I cant recommend Beckworth retreat enough, especially for larger groups. The rooms were spacious...”

Wake up to the magpies, go to sleep with the frogs, kookaburras or cockatoos calling from the creek. During farm walks you will see kangaroos, wallabies, echidna and many birds including our resident eagles. Beckworth Retreat is a working sheep farm located at the foot of Mt Beckworth just 20min north of Ballarat. Great place for groups but please note that we live in our attached private area and you will be amongst daily farm activities. You are booking 2 x Family Units (each has 2 bedrooms/share bathroom). There are also 2 extra rooms if you want the Grandparents or other Friends stay - just enquire!
We have lived and worked all over Australia and New Zealand (school teachers) and done a lot of travel ourselves. We love people and love to share our little bit of paradise at Beckworth Retreat which has been in the family for over 150 years. Usually you will be greeted on arrival and assisted as needed. We will let you know if we are away and you will need to use smart lock keys to access the property.
The historic township of Clunes (Victoria's first gold mining town) is only 5' drive and it is highly recommended to spend some hours browsing through the Booktown stores or just sitting having a coffee being part of the historic "film set" main street. Many Victorian Secrets (Pyrenees, Goldfields, Mineral Spas) are all a short drive away. Only 20 minutes north of Ballarat and so easy to access from the M8 (Adelaide to Melbourne freeway).
