Holifield Farm Hostel & Community Project

It's was a large place, well equipped and beautifully laid out. The best bit was the accessibility spaces. All of the young adults that stayed are disabled in one way or another. We had plenty of equipment including hoists and a lift to enable everyone to really enjoy themselves.

Quirky hostel with very good facilities in a quiet location

Guests need to be advised to bring their own towels

✅ The location is nestled in a quiet village. ✅ Near Seal Sanctuary ✅ Excellent and friendly staff (Hugo and Rob) ✅ Vege-friendly, fully-equipped kitchen ✅ Clean, spacious room and lovely bunk beds with mini curtains for extra privacy ✅ Expresso machine available for use ✅ Free wifi! ✅ A must if you and your family love nature.

Have a little note (near the doors) to remind guests to close their doors gently as they do slam and vibrate due the thin walls between connecting rooms. Our sleep was interrupted due to very late check-in by next-door guests.

Great location: all the good places to see are nearby, and we found that the facilities were sufficient for a few days as we had three kids. Showers were clean and tidy. Kids liked the pool and ping pong tables. The staff was helpful, but they are only available via phone, and there is no reception desk. Overall, it’s decent enough to spend a few days in, and the Valentines are always around in the mornings if you need any information.

There were a lot of spiders and cobwebs on the ceiling, and the kids were scared to sleep on the top bunks. Slamming of the door is very loud especially if you are sleeping.

We had a wonderful stay at Holifield Farm Hostel as a group of 12. We had dorms 1 and 2 - the beds were very comfortable and the hostel was clean. The large kitchen was perfect for us to cook and eat together. Plenty of parking for cars. Lots of things to do in the local area.

It was not mentioned in the booking that the kitchen was vegetarian only. This was not a problem for us, but it would've been good to know beforehand.

Place is good to stay and well maintained. Plenty of utensils helps. Tomato,pumpkin,beetroot and other things grown which makes it nice. Walking trails are also present.

Approach Road to the place is narrow as we traveled in 16 seater bus. Driver gets panicked and stressed in such narrow paths. There can be more shower rooms as it becomes hectic with such large group.
