The picturesque location of rolling hills and farmland with a backdrop of mountain ranges and state forest. We also love the close proximity to award winning wineries and restaurants. Visitors love escaping to this area to `get away from it all`.

Langbrook estate cottage

We stayed at the cottage here, a nice peaceful relaxed week away from the hustle of life. Whether it was sitting by the pool, going for a swim, playing billiards, or just having a cup of tea under the verandah looking toward the mountains - it was just what was needed. Would happily stay there again - thanks to Tonia for a pleasant experience!!!

Cottage with the mountain views

Our stay at The Cottage was absolute serenity with the most peaceful surroundings and amazing mountain views at all sides! A very cool cosy vibe inside this place, it has real character from the brick walls and the decor to the pitched beam ceiling. All rooms are spacious and natural light filled in the day. The living area has both a wood burning fireplace and split heating system and there is a pool table to entertain. The gated outdoor pool area is a few metres from the front door step with a private table area in full view of the pool. There's access to walk the back lanes of the cattle farm and take in all the views too. The hostess was most welcoming, stocked the fridge with a few surprises and happily assisted with any queries during our stay and good local tips. Location is easy being a quick 5 minute drive down the road to the main street of Yarra junction, also where you'll find Woolworths supermarket. Certainly a great central point this stay was with plenty of activities within a short drive and around the surrounding areas from dinning out, trail walks, waterfalls, winery visits, trout farms, snow trips and puffing billy just to name a few. Happy to have found this gem in country Victoria.

Perfect Stay

Wow! We had such a wonderful experience at Langbrook Estate. Serene and peaceful surrounding with a marvellous view of the valley and mountains. Interior is cozy and emits warmth. The pool table, swimming pool and tennis court kept us occupied while we were at the accommodation. Other times we were out exploring the nearby places like the cherry picking, chocolatier and animal sanctuary. Good location. Tonia, the host was also easy to communicate with. She even stocked the fridge with breakfast essentials like cereals, bread and milk. Kitchen was well-equipped with electrical appliances and crockery. Enjoyed myself cooking for my family. I would highly recommend this place. Hidah Singapore

About the host

Hosted by Cathrine Phelan-Smith

Host profile image
My name is Cathy and, along with my husband Greg, we’ve recently made the move to Langbrook Farm — Greg’s family’s beautiful 300-acre property in the Yarra Valley. After careers in Education and Agribusiness, we decided to take the plunge and create a new chapter here on the farm.
I manage our three BnBs while Greg looks after the 13-acre vineyard, Truffiere and helps out with the cattle, although farm life means we’re constantly helping each other out with all the other bits and pieces that come with country living! Our adult children are now off at university and building lives of their own on the other side of Melbourne, so we’ve become “empty nesters” in the process.
We feel incredibly privileged to care for this stunning property and to welcome guests from all over the world to experience it for themselves. From different cultures and age groups to birthdays, anniversaries and long-overdue getaways, every stay brings something special. The kindness and feedback from our guests has been truly humbling.
We also love hosting fellow Melburnians looking to slow down, reconnect, and enjoy a true country escape. Langbrook Farm really is the perfect place to switch off, breathe deeply, and simply be. Come and stay — we’d love to share it with you.

Why they chose this property

The Yarra Valley is overflowing with incredible experiences — from world-class wineries and award-winning restaurants to artisan food producers and unforgettable scenery. Just five minutes from Langbrook Farm you’ll find local favourites including artisan bread and pastries, a cheesemaker, Silva Coffee, country markets, and iconic country pubs.

For those who love the outdoors, there’s something for every age and energy level. Explore the Lilydale to Warburton Rail Trail, tackle the world-class Warburton Bike Park, enjoy the local indoor pool centre, or simply spend time beside the naturally beautiful Yarra River. For the more adventurous, Warburton Adventure Company offers plenty of thrills, while Sanders Motocross Track and Shirley Heights Equestrian Centre are right on our doorstep.

What truly makes this region special, though, is its natural beauty. The Yarra Ranges wrap around us with breathtaking views — from snow-capped peaks in winter to rolling vineyards that paint the hills in changing colours throughout the seasons.

Join us on a farm tour and discover even more of what makes this area so unique, including neighbouring vineyards producing world-recognised Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, along with a few hidden local secrets we love to share.

What makes this property unique

It’s not every day you find a private farm stay with facilities like ours. What we notice most is how quickly guests slow down once they arrive — and how little they want to leave.

With a hot tub, tennis court, firepit, swings, cubby house and trikes for the kids, there’s something here for everyone. Cottage guests also enjoy their own private pool, while our long laneway invites peaceful walks amongst nature, birdlife, and some truly spectacular views. We even offer farm tours, with a few surprises along the way — and not just for the city folk!

Our wildlife list is endless! Kangaroos, resident koalas, wedge tails eagles, wallabies, dingos, wild deer, kookaburras, muscovy ducks, wild ducks, moor hens and birdlife galore! We also have beautiful charolais cattle meandering through their paddocks with calves at foot with calving season being in September and if you are lucky you might even experience a birth. Come in Autumn and you will meet our mountain duck couple who return every year to breed on our dam; they are so beautifully colored.

Because all of our accommodations are fully self-contained, guests can truly settle in, switch off, and relax at their own pace. It’s about breathing in the fresh country air, losing track of time, and reconnecting with family, friends, and the simple joy of being together.
