  About Us  

Chris and I decided to open our home for adults with a disability to holiday here with us in country Victoria because we saw such a need for a place to exist. Currently we are the only one of its type in Victoria. We offer something unique and innovative, in that we genuinely care for and support people within our own home. We go to great lengths to ensure all guests have a memorable, fun and fantastic holiday. Along with various farm activities we also take guests out to enjoy interesting and fantastic day trips.


We are able to offer emergency respite also, should the need arise. We pick up and drop off guests to their home and each guest leaves with a fabulous farm gift bag, full of various farm products.


Our aim is to ensure families and guests have the peace of mind that they are in a truly wonderful environment supported by people who are genuine and who feel so passionately about what they do.

 
The Farm
We are located on an idyllic and peaceful 20 acres in beautiful Daisy Hill, in Central Goldfields, Victoria. Guests will be fully supported by us in our own home, which has been beautifully renovated throughout. The farm house also has a separate cottage for accommodation located directly next to it that will ready for guests shortly. There is always something new and different to see and do for each visit at Chris & Julies Respite Farm.
 
The Animals
A wide range of farm animals awaits your visit. Nearly all of the farm animals have been hand raised by us, so they are extremely friendly and love new faces and attention. The farm animals include; chooks, miniature horses, birds, sheep, baby lambs, alpine and boer goats, ducks, rabbits & a donkey plus lots of kangaroos and their baby joeys who often frequent our front lawn!
