ABOUT US
Elliminook homestead luxury accommodation complete with 74 acres is nestled amongst a large historic garden and is only a short walk from Birregurra on the Barwon River.

Built in 1865 by John Davenport Bromfield, a prominent local grazier, as "a commodious brick homestead of 14 rooms", Elliminook is now classified by the National Trust of Australia.

Visitors arrive at the property through a sweeping driveway flanked by privet and box hedges, past century old trees and manicured garden beds.

The home’s high slate roof and wide verandahs complement the garden which includes a croquet lawn beside a magnificent shady elm, a tennis court, a huge Bunya Bunya Pine which dominates the front lawn, Irish strawberry trees, a Cedar of Lebanon and Australia’s own Kurrajongs and Illawarra flame tree.

The elegant homestead has undergone extensive restorations, always with an eye to detail. Today an impressive passageway of Baltic pine flooring and a stained glass archway lead to the beautifully decorated and furnished guest sitting room, dining room, and bedrooms. The gallery overlooks the bluestone paved central courtyard which is bordered with prolific iceberg roses.
