Visit Gulf Station and learn what life was like for a family living on the land in nineteenth century Australia.
Gulf Station is one of Victoria’s oldest and most authentic working farm complexes in the Yarra Valley.
On Open Days, families can join a guided tour at 11.30am or explore at their own pace — wandering through the homestead, gardens, old schoolhouse and historic outbuildings. Meet the resident Clydesdales, and explore the barns and farm buildings where generations once worked the land.
Pack a picnic to enjoy on the lawn and experience the domestic world of a colonial farming family, where resilience, resourcefulness and hard work shaped daily life.
