Ironbarks is set on a 100 acre property, surrounded on three
sides by Victorian State Forest. The property is largely grasslands, with
undulating hills. Although you're only a five minute drive from the township of Dunolly, you won't see anyone else at Ironbarks (unless you want to).
Things to do...
The main reason people come to Ironbarks is to do nothing
other than relax... Reading books by the fire, hanging out in the hammock, going for walks in the
native bush, practising your golf, chasing kangaroos (good luck!), or spotting birds.
Ironbarks is a quiet place. The sort of place you come
to if you want to have some time to yourself, either alone or as a group.
Relax on one of the decks and choose from a number of beautiful views; the glimmer of
Mt Tarrangower over the farmland in the distance, or the Australian native bush
that surrounds the property. Perhaps
you will be enjoying a bottle of local wine that you picked up at a winery
visit, or contemplating a day spent in a nearby town.
You may like to take a walk to one
of the dams, and try your hand at yabbying (in months with an R in them), or just watch the animals and birds
whose home we share. Early risers are especially well rewarded if they get out
for an early morning walk. You can finish off a perfect day by dining
under the stars.
