Welcome to Olinda Yarra, a family owned and managed heritage cattle farm offering the gorgeous Olinda Yarra Cottage for a unique farm stay experience. Enjoy the very spacious and private cottage including two bedrooms, two lounge rooms, kitchen, bathroom and spa bath with full laundry facilities. Get up close and personal with our very cute farm animals, collect the chicken & duck eggs, explore acres of century old gardens and heritage or just relax and breathe in that fresh country air.
Hi, I'm Shelley the owner and manager of Olinda Yarra and our beautiful Cottage. I keep very busy on the farm looking after all our gorgeous farm animals and historical homestead and gardens. With over 150 years of history Olinda Yarra is not only a unique magical place but also has an amazing relaxed atmosphere and I hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
We are situated close to all the major attractions in the Yarra Valley. Less than 10 minutes away from the Chocalaterie, Yarra Valley Dairy and Coombes Dame Melba Estate. Victorias first winery Yering Station is a one minute drive and only a few minutes more are Stones/Meletos, Zonzo, De Bortoli, Domaine Chandon, Rochford and Coldstream Brewery. We are 15 minutes from the large tourist town of Healesville with the Healesville Animal Sanctuary and famous Four Pillars Gin Distillary. Directly out the front of our property entrance is the recently opened Yarra Valley Trail for bikes and walking which takes you to Lilydale and beyond to all tourist towns to Warburton. There are also two major Golf Courses two minutes drive away - Yering Meadows and Eastwood Golf Course. The Lilydale train station is 10 minutes away and we are Uber and Bus friendly. The Yarra Valley Airport is next door for small plane flights and sky diving. So much to see and do, we are truly in the prime location at the start of the Yarra Valley and only 45 minutes from Melbourne.
