Nestled in a gorgeous part of Victoria only 45 minutes from Melbourne CBD is 700 acres of pure beauty. The Ranch is the ideal spot for a weekend getaway or a week long stay and perfect for singles through to families who are looking for a relaxed bush camping experience with all the comforts of home. We are also a working horse agistment property with approx. 30 horses onsite and 1000 free range hens.
The spacious property offers you privacy and seclusion like no other. One of the most frequent questions asked is “will I be camping next to someone?”. Only if you choose – no one will be taking your view! Sites are all unpowered and camping is best suited to fully self-contained and self-sufficient campers including tent campers, caravans and motorhomes, and big rigs. Choose a shady spot under a tree or full sun if you want to make use of your solar.
There are toilets and hot showers as well as other facilities available for guests to use including a tennis court and access to the amazing pool area, BBQ, and the large poolside camp kitchen.
If you’re after a night of luxury, or a romantic weekend with that special person, then The Ranch has onsite Glamping Tents which would be perfect! The tents sleep two people, come with all linen and bedding supplied, and have full access to all the facilities.
For any essentials or medical needs, Melton is a short 10 min drive and well serviced with Woolworths, Coles, Doctors, and Chemist, etc as well as a train station.
