What an amazing location. The hosts were so friendly and welcoming, they showed us around and we were able to play and feed the baby goats. The scenery was absolutely amazing with views right across the valley and hills. We saw Kangaroos, native birds, goats, Alpacas and even an echidna taking a stroll. The house had everything we needed from heating to amenities to entertainment for a young family. Would highly recommend for anyone wanting a peaceful getaway in aussie bush/farm near the ski slopes.

We had a wonderful stay at this accommodation. The room was clean and comfortable, with all the amenities I needed. Ed and Vickie were friendly and helpful, and the location was perfect for exploring the area. I would highly recommend this accommodation to anyone looking for a great place to stay. Perfect for family staycation during winter while staying cozy in the fireplace. Great for kids as they have farm and lots of animals to see. We love how Vickie and Ed greeted us and accomodated extra people, we felt like we are family! Thanks so much for sharing your property to us and the inpiring stories about how the vision of your farm begun.

Above and Beyond

The family and I had a fantastic time. even on the days that the weather didn't play ball, we had a cozy time with the fireplace while playing board games and watching the lovely scenery. Vicky and Ed were so obliging, giving us an in-depth tour with the friendly animals. My daughters loved the goats and Alpacas, which we pretended were Lamas. I can't wait for our return visit later in the year. Five Stars!!!

My wife and I decided to spend our 10 year anniversary staying at the Stone Creek Cottage and it was an amazing experience. Both Vickie and Ed are amazing people and such hospitable hosts. The cottage was so lovely and had everything you needed with Vickie still checking in on us to make sure. As well as giving us plenty of recommendations of things to do and see in this lovely part of the world. Scenic views, cozy cottage with two amazing fire places during the cold weather and plenty of animal friends. The location is 15-20 minutes from town and is easily accessible. Cannot recommend this place enough. Thank you Vickie and Ed for making it such a lovely experience! -Ned and Nada

A beautiful cottage in a lovely spot

This is a beautiful and very clean stone cottage in an absolutely stunning location. There were 3 of us, using 2 bedrooms, and we were very comfortable. It had all the facilities we could want, including a nice wood heater (which we used because we had a couple of chilly nights). Highlights were: * Big range of outdoor seating locations and options * Very clean, new BBQ * Stunning views * Beautiful gardens * Watching baby goat antics from the balcony Vickie and Ed were very welcoming and friendly hosts, and have done a great job in turning this into a wonderful place to spend a few days. If you want to be within walking distance of cafes and shops then this is not for you, but if you'd love to get away and enjoy some comfortable peace and quiet while being blown away by high country views we can absolutely recommend Stone Creek Cottage at View to a Hill.

Unique farm stay

We had a fantastic time here and arrived a few days after several baby goats had been born. We were able to hold them, feed them and watch them from our accommodation. The hosts were very generous with their time and so helpful. The property is unique and only 20 mins from Mansfield. Cottage was very cosy and comfortable.

Perfect winter getaway

We really enjoyed our stay at Vickie & Ed's cottage. The view was spectacular and the home was well equipped for our family of 4. Our daughter's loved exploring the property and helping Ed to feed the pygmy goats. A short drive into town or a great base for skiing Mt Buller like us. The cottage fire place was perfect for those chilly nights. Thanks for a wonderful winter getaway!

Our stay at Stone Creek was outstanding! Vickie and Ed were so welcoming, warm and accommodating. The property is stunning and the cottage is warm, comfortable and cozy. Our little girl and her little friend were delighted in the surrounds and to be able to play with and feed the goats. We skied at Mt Buller during our stay. The drive was an easy 20-25 mins tot he Mt Buller gate. I would highly recommend staying here for any summer or winter getaway with family and friends. We were made to feel so welcome and are so grateful to Vickie and Ed.
