Guest Reviews

"We had a lovely time. Ray and Rosemary were great hosts. Our favourite animal was Freckles the piglet. The cabin was very comfortable and the location was perfect for exploring the local area. Our dog loved it too. Highly recommended."

"The children (aged 11-13) had an absolute ball. Ray showed them the animals and how to feed them and they really enjoyed their weekend. I would really reccommend this for families."

"We went on this holiday to just clear our heads and relax for a few days. And that is exactly what we did. My three year old son had a ball as did my husband. I got to relax around the camp fire and our dog got to have a break from the same old back yard he sees every day. All up it was a great experience and I would recomend it to anyone. I wouldn't change a thing. The best thing about the holiday was there no pressure to do anything. The owners were very laid back and friendly. On arrival you immediatly feel like one of the family. Thankyou to Ray & Rosemary for giving us a wonderful holiday.

"ejoyed the rural setting/animals.The hosts were very pleasant,the communal dining/fireplace an excellent area for meeting with other guests.restful nights sleep ,many stars overhead.
An excellent alternative to a motel beside the highway.
Compared to other places we stayed during the trip the place was overpriced
Enjoyed our stay ,the hosts and the other guests~places like this provide a different dimension to your travels.
Remember to climb Mt Pilot for a great view over the property and surrounds"

"Mt Pilot Tourist Farm is a great place to stay. Ray and Rosemary are lovely hosts and spent lots of one on one time with our daughter teaching her to ride a horse. The farm itself is fantastic with every sort of animal imaginable and very hands on. The accommodation is great too. The farm and cabins were spotless. We loved our experience so much that we have book to go back after Christmas."

"We had a terrific stay at Mt Pilot - it was really convenient for touring Beechworth, Rutherglen, Yackandandah etc etc. Ray and Rosemary are great people - they offer real country hospitality. The cottages are immaculate and well provided for in terms of amenities and equipment. We intend to go again with friends from the UK.

"We enjoyed our stay at 'Mt Pilot Tourist Farm', especially our four young grandchildren. Rosemary & Ray are the most delightful couple, they made us very welcome, they do so much with the children, and you know their heart is in it, our grandchildren just loved them, and it is not just the days to be enjoyed, the evenings by the fire are as well. The accommodation and service could not be faulted so overall, I would recommend 'Mt Pilot Tourist Farm' as a most enjoyable place to stay."

"My sister and I stayed here in July 07 with 7 kids between us and could not have had a more terrific holiday. The kids had a ball and loved going round with "Farmer Brown" to feed the animals, tractor rides, horse rides and good country fun! Kids ages are between 3-12 years and they all loved it. Can't wait to go back again. Wonderful hosts, great accommodation, and perfect cabins for a family of 5. Loved the open fire in the evening, perfect for a cold winter evening. A fantastic family holiday, one of the best! "

"Excellent accommodation in a lovely farm setting, and friendly helpful hosts."

"From the moment we made an enquiry about Mt Pilot farm, we started to experience an amazing customer service and care from Rosemary and Ray. Once we arrived (which was a late, cold night) - Rosemary had a heater on and our unit was very warm and welcoming.

This has been our first visit to the farm and definitely the best holiday of this kind as we've never received so much personal attention from the owners. Rosemary and Ray were always there, everywhere we went, showing us the animals, driving us around the farm (with our 14 mth old son), really gave us an understanding of farm experience. Our son loved it!! Apart from a huge variety of animals, they have an amazing BBQ area with open fire which is absolutely amazing at night and overall service, animals, fresh area and the company of Rosemary, Ray and their family made an unforgettable impression. We can't wait to go back there!!!"

"Wonderful hospitality, Ray and Rosemary really made us feel welcomed. Very clean and comfortable cabins. We wanted to get away from phones and internet and this really helped. Our Border Collie thought it was heaven. Very pet centric. We'll be back.

"Fantastic! Air-conditioned cabin accommodation clean and very comfortable. A wonderful farm experience for kids and adults alike. Mr and Mrs Brown (farm owners) actively encouraged kids' involvement in all aspects of farm life from ferretting to feeding the animals and riding on the quad bikes. Cannot reccommend highly enough as a family (and pet) getaway! All this and only 10 mins to major town of Beechworth."

"Our stay at Mt Pilot, though brief, was great. Our hosts were brilliant, we felt immediately at home and our 18 month old had a ball being shown around on the farm bike, feeding goats, sheep and cows. He had a blast. Really friendly and wonderful people. We'll be back"
