We enjoyed our stay at Orange. The property was clean & had everything we needed. Location was great, outside of town to be peaceful but close enough to get everywhere easily. It was also close to a few of the wineries, which was a bonus. Directions to the property were accurate and made it easy to find.

An exquisite hundred year old cottage with the owners having retained the authenticity of its age and yet adopted comfortable modern amenities to make this a very happy place to stay. Well positioned in relation to both wineries and the town - would highly recommend Melaleuca Farm stay.

We loved the little welcome touches - fresh fruit, milk and eggs, complimentary wine, a range of teas and the coffee machine. The bed was super comfy and the two seater lounge was perfect. Loved the bird feeders, got to see a range of local birds. Thank you for the use of the car charger, a real bonus.

Enjoyed our stay at this lovely cosy cottage. The owners have added many special little touches like complimentary wine, chocolates, fresh eggs from their chickens, a great coffee machine and other kitchen essentials. Heating options kept the place nice and warm, very comfy king size bed and a relaxing spa bath to soak in at the end of the day. The cottage is approx 6 minutes drive to many restaurants and cafes in town and easy drive to wineries and other places of interest. Highly recommend
