Please note our farm is totally Off-Grid and the majority of our resources are harvested from rain, wind and sun. Our power is stored in batteries, and water in tanks. Please be conservative with power, water and gas usage during your stay. Drinking water is only available from indoor taps. A steam iron is located in the laundry.
All toilets are connected to a septic tank, please do not flush sanitary items, nappies or flushable wipes. Use paper provided to wrap your sanitary items and place in the bin.
We will start and maintain the wood heater during your stay. Please don’t touch the heater or attempt to add wood. Never leave electric blankets on while you are out or sleeping.
The Hacienda is a passive solar building and does not require air-conditioning. Please use ceiling fans as needed. We recommend keeping all windows closed during hot days and opening some at night, if needed, as there is a cool breeze most evenings.
The Guest Wifi password is “blueberry”. Music can be played to the stereo from your device via a bluetooth connection to the Hacienda Lounge Echo device, or you can Ask Alexa to play music from the internet.
Please report any damage to us during your stay or other issues before your departure.
SELF CHECK IN: To find Hacienda 1 please go to our main gate at 445 Northwood Road Seymour. We are the last gate on the left just before the freeway overpass. Look out for the Blue Tongue Berries sign.
When you arrive park your car in the parking bay. On the lefthand side of the parking bay is the Hacienda (rendered strawbale building). Walk onto the balcony near the carpark and turn left, you'll see a couple of rooms, look for the door with your room number on it. Your door will be unlocked.
