What you can expect

Explore Victoria’s secret island, Churchill Island and embrace the wide open spaces, fresh air and tranquil walks among the historical grounds. Step back into yesteryear to quaint cottages, horse-drawn carts and immaculately manicured lawns and gardens sitting pretty amongst a spectacular coastal landscape with views of Phillip Island.

The historic grounds hold a significant place in Australia’s Indigenous and early pioneering history as the original site of agricultural activities taking place in the 1850’s. Take your time exploring the island's extensive farm grounds and gardens, wander along the bay trails and discover the ways of the past as you watch rangers and farmhands carry out daily farming duties like sheep shearing, working dogs and cow milking.
