The Homestead @ Glenwood is a spacious, light filled, mud brick home set on a 200 acres of lush farmland, surrounded by the rolling hills of the picturesque Lurg Valley in Northeast Victoria (Winton Motor Raceway 10km, Benalla 23km, Wangaratta 44km, The King Valley 25km). The Homestead @ Glenwood offers guests refined classic country charm, and the opportunity to relax and unwind in a truly tranquil setting. Fully self contained and with a wrap around verandah, guests can relax and take in the views of the surrounding farmland, the coming and going of bird life on the nearby lake, or the option of watching the sun set with a refreshing, crisp glass of locally produced prosecco in hand. The Homestead is perfect for enjoying a sumptuous seep-in (12 noon check out), and long lazy mornings enjoying gourmet home brewed coffee, or exploring the many attractions of the surrounding area. The Homestead has the space for a relaxed family getaway or a weekend away with friends. Everyone will enjoy having the space and privacy of 7 individual bedrooms, as well as large indoor and outdoor common spaces to gather comfortably.
Northeast Victoria offers year round attractions and entertainment to cater to every taste. From snow sports, road and mountain biking, motor sports, historical trails and towns, parks & gardens, art galleries, festivals and locally produced gourmet food and wine. You will be spoilt for choice.

Due to the Homesteads mud brick construction, ample north facing windows and wide verandah, it retains a year round comfortable temperature.

There is plenty of space to park cars, trailers, caravans and vans.

Please read the full listing and ensure that our location is the right choice for you. The Homestead is located on a working farm, and as such you will hear animal noises, and there are some things to be cautious of. These include the movement of farm machinery, electric fences and dams. We ask that guests not venture into paddocks as large animals (cattle and sheep) can be unpredictable. We ask that you respect the animals and most importantly please leave all gates, as you find them.

Please note that as the Homestead is located on a working farm, it is not suitable for pets. This includes service and support animals.
