The Grove Gunbower..

Due to the popularity of our other holiday rental property "The Ridge" we have renovated another house on our farm "The Grove".
The Grove is more spacious house with 3 bedrooms. With a larger living room and kitchen.
If you love peace, tranquillity and wildlife then this is the place for you. Abundant bird life and when walking along the banks of the Gunny Creek, you may spot a Wallaby or two..

We love people who bring their dogs and other pets on holidays with them. We do have a secure dog yard. Pets are allowed inside. But be sure to bring your own blankets/ bedding for them to lay on. Do not allow pets on furniture and bedding. And please vacuum dog hair from floor before leaving.

The Gunbower Creek is a great spot for fishing and in summer it is a popular place for swimming and water skiing.
Murray cod, yellow belly and carp are often caught in the creek. Boats can be launched at the nearby boat ramp, which is just a two minute walk from the cottage. It is currently difficult to fish from the bank of the creek due to the large amount of water lilies growing in the shallow water. But we have installed a fishing jetty nearby to make it easier for visitors without a boat, to fish. The jetty is a 5 minute walk up stream from The Grove
Kayaks are available for tenants' use at no extra charge. Life jackets are supplied.

NEW!!! Streaming services Stan and PrimeVideo available for free. Literally thousands of movies and TV shows to choose from.
Also have good range of DVDs if internet is out.

Free unlimited WiFi internet available.

The Gunbower Creek is lowered from mid May till mid August. A shallow stream flows in the creek at this time of the year. Therefore the mud banks are exposed and it is difficult to get to the water to fish. Fishing is possible ten minutes from Gunbower in the Murray River. Please contact us if you require further information.
In Gunbower there is a Takeaway Shop that also sells all basic needs, McGillivrays' Butcher Shop and the Gunny Pub for excellent meals .

Locality

The Grove is situated on the Gunbower Creek at Gunbower, Victoria, 40 kilometres west of Echuca.
From Echuca travel towards Kerang along the Murray Valley Highway. Just before entering Gunbower, turn right into Fox Island Road, then right into Richards Road. House entrance is 1.8 km on right amongst the very large gum trees.

Property

The Grove is situated on our cattle farm property of approximately 200 acres. We also have another holiday house on the farm (The Ridge is also listed on this website) which is about 300 metres further down Richards Road.

We had a great time staying at The Grove. Sean is a great host, and the house is lovely. We really enjoyed having a fire going in the fireplace and feeding carrots to Harold the pony in the paddock next door

A lovely old farmhouse in a very charming little part of rural Victoria but close to all the amenities of Echuca. Ideal for families, and apparently pet friendly too although I wasn't travelling with pets on this occasion.

The Grove was a peaceful and quiet place. Just what we needed to unwind and relax before going back to work! Waking up with the birds singing was so special. We loved the Grove and its surroundings. Rose and Kim

Cute spot for a getaway

Such a cute, little house on a gorgeous property! We loved being welcomed by the pony and feeding him carrots. Sean had amazing communication and even had the fireplace going before we arrived to warm the place up. I loved that the exterior doors' handles were up higher so I didn't have to worry about my toddler letting herself out. We brought our 2 dogs with us and it was a super pet-friendly location with a closed in yard. It's a lovely spot for a rest and reset. Our walk along Gunbower Creek was a highlight to our stay here.

Fantastic house to relax and enjoy the farm with all the animals visiting, Harold the pony, the goats and cows, the wild birds and beautiful stars at night. Loved that we were also able to take our dogs with us who also enjoyed their time on the property.

Great get away

The cottage farm stay was awesome. Perfect to bring our two dogs as there was a fully fenced back yard and the creek across the road for swims. The kayaking was a highlight, as well as the mini horse and goats. The host was very accommodating and communication was very easy. Overall a very enjoyable relaxing stay.

How’s the serenity

We were in town for a friends wedding so staying only a few minutes from the reception was perfect. Very relaxing with all the comforts from home plus more. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a quiet, relaxing break.
