About this property

Bywater Farmstay - Pet Friendly by the River

Need time away from the hustle and bustle? Our farm is set on 42 acres of rolling green hills with wildlife, the occasional platypus in the dams, and glorious views. All framed by the gorgeous Pipers River right at your doorstep.
Bywater Farmstay is fully self-contained with a kitchenette, an ensuite, reverse cycle air conditioning, and your own entrance. Pets are welcome with a fully fenced yard. There's even room for the caravan or motorhome. 5 mins drive to Lilydale, 20 minutes to Launceston, and 35 mins to the airport.

We previously hosted prior to COVID and loved it. We have since bought ourselves a farm and have spent the last 12 months renovating inside the farmhouse. We live alongside a river on 42 acres. Our semi-attached, self-contained accommodation is now available for short-term stays. This fully furnished place has its own entrance for privacy and its own yard for your pet/s. There's even room for the caravan or motorhome. We love good wine and a chat & are so happy to be hosting again.
