The place was excellent, and the hosts were great.

James Australia

Graham and Kathleen were amazing hosts. Very welcoming and generally lovely people. Their farm is beautiful, as are the chooks and sheep! The house/cottage is amazing; nothing to fault at all.

Kylie Australia

Loved the stay here and wish it was longer. Great location close to cradle mountain and Deloraine down the road. Awesome scenery around the property and the cottage itself is very well appointed and lovely with the fire going. Graham and Kathleen are very helpful and warm hosts, even getting the fire going each evening before we got back from the days adventures. Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to see what this part of the world offers!

James Australia

It is a beautiful cosy cabin with a great kitchen, wood fired heater, good WiFi, and outside a balcony with chairs table BBQ and lovely views over the orchard to hills and cows

Brett Australia

First of all let me thank Mr. Graham and family again. My stay was like home away from home. Graham and family are the most friendly and wonderful host. I enjoyed the stay in a big spacious and clean home in an amazing eco farm flooded with variety of fruits. The kitchen and other facilities are above expectations. Graham walked us on the farm and provided info about eco farming. Also i recieved lot of information about places I could cover on my tour ahead in Tasmania. This is a quiet and pleasant place with the peace disturbed by songs of birds only. One of the best stays I had.

Mahesh Australia

The property while secluded, was still within easy driving to many local attractions. Elvenhome Farm was peaceful and relaxing. Graham was an excellent host and his knowledge of eco farming was most interesting. I am planning to visit again.

Graham
Elvenhome Farm and Cottage offer an eco-holiday experience, located close to the historic township of Deloraine. Hand built and cultivated for over twenty years, we are a Bio-Dynamic farm employing Permaculture design principles in both house and gardens. The farm showcases a diversity of environmentally sustainable living. Our unique self-contained cottage features bamboo floors and artisan crafted Blackwood windows. There are two bedrooms, comprising of a Queen bed suite and the second having comfortable twin bunks. The separate dining and living areas have a warm and spacious feel. A fully equipped kitchen is stocked with continental breakfast provisions and seasonal farm produce will be available for you to sample. A sun drenched patio is the perfect place to enjoy magnificent views and bird life. The farm is nestled into native bushland. The pre-existing clearing of five acres has been transformed into orchards, kitchen gardens, animal runs and structures for the home and visitor accommodation. A substantial orchard of fruits, nuts and berries, along with a vegetable garden, milking goats and laying hens provide plentiful supplies of produce year round.
Graham grew up in the Northern suburbs of Sydney where he carried out his apprenticeship as a carpenter and joiner. Upon completion he went traveling around Australia, where his interest grew in ecology and sustainable agricultural practices. In 1989 Graham moved to Tasmania and started to establish a sustainable farm - Elvenhome. He co-founded the Deloraine Regional Bio-dynamics Group in 1991, which works towards promoting sound Bio-dynamic practices. To further his long term interest in Permaculture, he completed the Permaculture Design Course in 1996 at the Southern Cross Permaculture Institute located in South Gippsland, Victoria. Further studies led him to complete a Certificate IV Horticulture (Herbs, Medicinal Herbs and Essential Oils) in 1998. Graham has also lectured in "Intro to Permaculture" courses through Northern Tasmania Adult Education. His passion and commitment is towards establishing a truly ecological sustainable way of living and sharing this with everyone.
Elvenhome farm is situated in the rolling hills of the mighty Mersey river a short drive from the historic township of Deloraine. Close by is Dynans Bridge which offers good platypus viewing in their natural environment. A short walk and you'll be presented with 360 degree rural and mountain views and magnificent sunsets.Fishing, walking and hiking are popular activities.Within a short drive local farms offer tasting of the local regions, raspberries, cheeses, honeys ,salmon and crafted beers as well as galleries and cafes and an indigenous bush tucker trail.
