ACTIVITIES

Visit the gorgeous historic town of Bathurst or the foodie and wine haven of Orange.

One of the joys of Wilga Station that visitors absolutely rave about is the The Sheep Trail, a meandering bush walk that weaves its way down to Wilga Creek from the Farmers Hut. There’s a firepit down by the creek which is available under certain conditions.
If you’d like to enjoy this experience during your stay, please bring all-terrain shoes or hiking boots.

ENVIRONMENT

From the Owners:

“We have built our accommodation structures to be eco-friendly, with sustainable building materials and power. We’ve reused and repurposed as much material as possible from the farm to create two unique country getaways that are distinctively Australian with an easy going sense of luxury.

The Farmers Hut is 100% off-grid, using rainwater collection and solar power.

The Farmers Hut has been designed to be cool in summer and warm in winter. The Farmers Hut is insulated with its grass roof. It also has a ceiling fan and windows on all sides to allow for air flow.

In winter there is a wood fireplace available that keeps the structure warm and snug.

There is ample power to charge phones, laptops, and the appliances provided, and whilst you can bring your own appliances such as hairdryers (we do not provide them), we do ask that you limit their use.”

What we love…

Wilga Station’s owners, Hamish and Mez Keith and their hand-picked team of local craftspeople have created a glorious new level of relaxed luxury where guests can experience all the joys of an Australian farming landscape.

But this is not your ordinary farmstay. The stunning Farmers Hut at Wilga Station features a sleek, curved, grassed, living roof. Using high end design, the building merges effortlessly into the surrounding environment.

In addition to looking incredible, the grass roof is a landmark in environmentally sustainable design. The grass roof acts as natural insulation and keeps the temperature between 16-24 degrees inside all year round. The hut is completely off grid, using solar energy, low energy appliances and 100% collected rainwater. The living roof has been seeded with the same drought resilient and cold climate grass mix that grows in nearby paddocks. The effect is seamless.


 

Tell me more

Wilga Station offers a new experience in luxury. It is a 260 acre working sheep farm that’s been home to the Keith family for three generations. They have now opened this idyllic country lifestyle to guests who are invited to explore the winding, walking tracks and willow-lined creek, before settling in to toast marshmallows and watch the sunset from your luxury couple’s getaway.

This is a stunning getaway for couples. Perched on top of a hill with incredible views across the whole valley, the secluded Farmers Hut is completely self-contained and perfect for singles or couples looking for the perfect rural escape.

Discreetly tucked away under its unique grass roof, the Hut is 100% off grid. It is designed to maintain a comfortable temperature of between 16-24 degrees all year round.

The Hut features a wood fireplace, king size bed, kitchenette, designer bathroom and a sheltered BBQ area.

The latest guest experience has been three years in the making, with the transformation of Wilga Dam into a 2 million litre natural swimming pond – perfect fopr summer days. Touched off with a restored swimming pontoon and fountain and Wilga Dam has now been transformed into a natural swimming pond – exclusively for Wilga Station guests.

Even in the cooler months, guests can sit around an open fire pit and watch the sunset from the weeping willow island – accessed only from a 10-metre-long bridge created from recycled hardwood and steel from the sheep yards.

Your stay will include a complimentary premium bottle of wine from local vineyards and a gourmet breakfast hamper, allowing you to experience the best of local and Wilga Station produce.

The Farmers Hut also has its own outdoor sheltered BBQ area and kitchenette with mini fridge.
