Tallawarra Homestead

excellent service and host were lovely and helpful..Breakfast was great and bed was comfortable ..views were great..the homestead was lovely and very elegant ..the area around the estate was beautiful lovely for a walk..you might see some wildlife

The find of our trip – in our view, wrongly graded by our travel agent , as “medium” it merited at least “First Class”. Extensive, comfortable and homely accommodation. It was quiet and relaxing with lovely surroundings. Hosts Andre and Janine were very friendly, helpful and interesting. But not intrusive. It was an ideal stop to unwind after the long drive from the Grampians and the bad Melbourne traffic. No evening meal was available, but there were options in Bunyip (15 mins drive away). Thoroughly recommended, do try it.

We had the pleasure to stay at Tallawarra Homestead for a small family wedding. What an absolute delight from the very moment we arrived we were greeted so warmly by our hosts. Walking into this beautiful home, the vibe from the beginning was one of warmth and calm. The bedroom we stayed in was beautiful and probably the two best nights sleep we’ve had in a while. I was really drawn to the harmony room where I could do yoga and meditate in one of the most beautiful, calming spaces. The daily walk amidst the beauty and wilderness was one I throughly enjoyed. Nothing was ever to much and every task was done with a smile. We were able to sit and relax and have lovely conversations around the fire which added to the ambiance. Personally for me the breakfast each day of bircher muesli was one of the best ever. Although we were there for a wedding, and a beautiful wedding it was I do look forward to going back for a weekend one day and I just know it will be the same amazing experience. Thank you very very much.

Andrej and Janine go above and beyond to exceed expectations. The homestead is idyllic, a wonderful property surrounded by scenic farmland and bush, with ample opportunity to see Australian wildlife. Upon arrival we were warmly greeted and offered afternoon tea, with delicious home made scones and fresh cream. The made to order breakfast was delicious. Behind the beautiful wooden bar is a fine selection of drinks for the connoisseur. In the luxurious room there is fruit, chocolate and port. The hosts pay attention to every detail and the decor is stunning. Plan to spend time in the magnificent sunroom for reading or board games. Leave your phone behind.

Firstly, id like to take this opportunity to thank Janine and Andrey for creating such an Amazing experience for my Husband and I. Firstly on our wedding night and then again to have a little time away from home and our crazy everyday life. Tallawarra Homestead is a little slice of heaven. Janine and Andrey were absolutely wonderful hosts, they greeted us upon arrival and were there to give us such a relaxing and pleasurable experience. Nothing was any trouble for either of them and they made sure that we never had to worry about a thing. From the hospitality, to the décor and its homely elegant atmosphere , to the beautiful and delicious home cooked Big Breakfast, the fresh juices and fresh coffee, to the complimentary chocolates, port, fruit and fresh flowers upon arrival. The Homestead was so much more than my husband and i could have imagined, we spent our nights by the warmth of the toasty wood fire, sipping away on our champagne, enjoying the peace and quiet. We also got to experience the Harmony Room....Absolutely Devine & Tranquil, the stresses seamed to disappear, surrounded by beautiful lighting, plants, low couches and the room smelt Amazing. A great place to unwind in private. The bed we stayed in was so comfortable! The linen was crisp and fresh, the bed was truly amazing and we didn't want to leave it. The shower was so hot and relaxing, along with the beautiful smelling soaps and body washes provided to us. The views of the Homestead are Devine, being greeted by beautiful Rosellas and the birds in the morning whilst sipping on coffee. Whilst on the decking, it blew our minds to see so many Kangaroos hopping past in the Neighboring paddocks. Andrey and Janine, if we could rate you 10 stars, we definitely would!! You were not only perfect hosts, but people we have become friends with. We will be forever grateful for all of the time and effort you both put into giving us such an unforgettable experience. Thankyou so much, we will definitely be visiting again.

This is truly a wonderful Australian Homestead. Janine and Andrey should feel very proud of themselves of the effort they have put into this property. There is nothing that can be improved on, they have thought of everything. As soon as you come off the main road you instantly feel the countryside of quietness, peace and nature. Our room was lovely, looking out of the front part of the house. Linen was beautiful, bed and pillows very good. There is an area out the front that you can sit and enjoy the outside fresh air etc. The big room out the back has been set up so couples or groups can have their own area to enjoy a drink, read or just be. Games are there for those who would like a challenge with their partner. Andrey made us a lovely cosy fire both nights. We enjoyed a sherry which was complimentary. Andrey does have a very healthy looking bar if you would like something else to drink. The decor of the property was exceptional. Beautifully decorated. Breakfast was enjoyable and there were good options of choice. If you are wanting an escape to somewhere very special, quiet, private and beautiful Tallawarra is for you. Last but not least the most important that Andrey and Janine are the nicest people, great to have a chat with and so welcoming to their home. Thank you both for a great stay.
