We were welcomed by Gina and Marco and shown through their lovely Old Kiln house. It is truly beautiful. Lovely old classic tobacco kiln now used as accommodation. New kitchen and bathroom with comfortable living and bedroom with views of valley. King River across the road where we watched platypus play. Gina gave us a brief rundown of the history of area and kiln house which was interesting. If you want to try somewhere unique, then I recommend staying here.
Welcome back anytime and happy you enjoyed some of our natural attractions. Very lucky to have spotted a platypus too!
Cheers,
Gina and Marco
We stayed in the Kiln which suffered from a major deficiency -no Telstra internet nor mobile phone. We had to drive about 6 kms before access became available. Clearly Telstra has not done its job in catering for tourists in the King Valley. Other than the issue of isolation (and possibly the steep stairs to the bedroom) this facility has everything you need including a very comfortable bed. The bath towels could be larger for those of us that aren't small
We now have a new Cheshunt South Telstra Mobile phone tower, so we are all very happy now!
What a beautiful place. Everything you could need in the kitchen, comfy beds and a roaring log fire along with reverse cycle heating cooling if needed. Fluffy towels, comfy chairs and a dining table that we sat around and chatted for ages. Ideal for a small group of large family. And even the local cows gave us a warm welcome too. As a bonus ask Gina to give you the history of the tobacco industry. Plenty of wineries to visit also if you need to spend a lazy afternoon.
So happy you enjoyed your stay, thanks for the great review and we hope to host you again sometime!
We had a fantastic weekend at the farmhouse thanks Marco & Gina, you are amazing hosts so helpful and kind which really added to our experience. The house is immaculate, cosy and well equipped we'll be back soon (need to restock the wine cabinet already). See you soon Marco & Gina!
We look forward to seeing you again sometime in the future!
My husband and I stayed at the Kiln at Glenmore Springs over the Queen's Birthday Long weekend and absolutely loved it! We made the booking at the last minute as this was one of the only places available in the King Valley (due to a last minute cancellation).
Gina and Marco were nothing but warm and welcoming from the beginning. They knew we were arriving late in the evening from Melbourne and went out of their way to put some free range eggs, bread, bacon and other bits and pieces in the fridge just in case we hadn't eaten.
When we arrived (which was quite late), Marco kindly showed us to the Kiln where he had already gotten the wood heater started. It was so warm and cosy.
The Kiln itself is very quirky and comfortable. It's a renovated tobacco kiln with a wood heater, full kitchen, bedroom upstairs and a little balcony. It's no 5 star hotel, but it had everything we needed and there were personal touches all through it.
We loved our time at Glenmore Springs and would recommend the Kiln to any couples looking for a country getaway.
We would love to have you back any time!
