We had such a wonderful stay at the farm stay! The property was peaceful, clean, and surrounded by beautiful nature — the perfect escape from city life. The animals, fresh air, and relaxing atmosphere made the experience really special.
A big thank you to Mel for being such a warm and welcoming host. She was friendly, helpful, and made sure we felt comfortable throughout our stay. You can really see the care and effort put into the place.
Highly recommend this farm stay to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway in Victoria. We would definitely love to come back again!

Everything was just so amazing. From the start to the end of our stay, it was great and easily the best stay ever. Location is amazing how quiet and peaceful and cabin is very beautiful. Lots of stuff in the cabin so you’re not just sleeping there. Me and my partner played some little games, walked around our cabin looking at animals and the nature, and had some wood fire to relax. We both really loved the view of sunrise from our bed, it was the best sunrise I’ve ever seen. The hosts were super kind and nice. It was nice that we got to see her when we leaving, she gave us some ideas to visit on our way home. Truly amazing place to stay and definitely will be back in the future!

If you are looking for a peaceful, quiet getaway far from the hustle and bustle of the city, this is the place for you."
It’s a small cottage, but it has all the essentials for a vacation.
We had a lovely time.
Clean and cozy cottage.
Mel was a lovely host.

Our little farmstay totally lived up to our expectations! We loved the sheep and goats just outside our door, especially at sunrise! The house is modern, cute decor and very clean and there are so many details and thoughts put into everything! Would definetely recommend anyone booking this magical little place - with the most breathtaking view and fresh air! We liked everything :)
We knew it was a tiny house but the space was very little - would recommend a smaller dining table solution maybe? (Just a friendly suggestion) Also there were a lot of information and long practical messages before arrival and just after arriving, reminding us of all the things we should do during and after our stay - which we understand and did, but it felt a bit like choirs and duties and many things to remember on our short little farmstay/holiday.

It was an absolute pleasure staying at Mel & Chelsea's place. It was the perfect getaway for the weekend, allowing us to relax, calm down and enjoy nature. The animals surrounding the property made it even more special. Mel and Chelsea were both very responsive and helpful regarding how to find the place, recommendations regarding the surrounding restaurants and To Dos and were overall very helpful and kind. I would highly recommend choosing this place for your perfect weekend getaway.

Where do we begin?! Banjos cabin is beautiful, the views from the decking, the animals surrounding and the hills in the distance make it the perfect city escape! Banjos cabin itself is the perfect layout, making it spacious and cosy! Mel was an outstanding host who was happy to chat about everything and anything! We had a photoshoot with her animals which exceed our expectations, we made new a lot of new friends (in particular with the three alpacas)! Our only regret is that we didn’t book long enough! We cannot wait to return to Banjos Cabin to visit our new friends and beautiful host!

Amazing stay! Mel was so responsive and went above and beyond. The place looks exactly like the pictures, if not better. The surroundings and animals are so beautiful. Such a relaxing, peaceful stay.

Such a quiet location, just the birds and animals for company. But close to food options as well. Nothing :-) you do need to know the king bed has minimal room around it though

What an amazing stay, I am so lucky I found this place for a little getaway to the country! The tiny home has everything you might need within it, and has the most beautiful views out the main window. The deck where I spent each morning watching the sunrise is so spacious and I cannot begin to describe how peaceful this stay is! The animals on the property as a bonus. Mel was such an amazing host, in contact with clear instructions consistently before and at the end of the stay which was very much appreciated. I cannot recommend this stay enough (in fact I’ve already passed on the details to members of my family that loved all my pictures and videos!) I will be back! Thank you Mel! 🥰
