About this property

Black Horse Park Serenity and beauty

Black Horse Park is an historic property first settled in the 1850s by George and Arthur Desmond and located on 20 acres of gently undulating pasture in the prestigious Boorolite Valley of the Victorian High Country. Enriched with age old European Oaks, Elms, Poplars,Liquid Ambers' and Pin Oaks, the property is also close to Mansfield State Forest.
With the property established in the 1850's, the Black Horse Park Homestead is currently undergoing extensive renovations to restore its rich and fascinating history and is also available for holiday accommodation.
*We also have the recently renovated Pin Oak Chapel moved to Black Horse Park in the 1940s and used for stabling the horses and the Original 1850's Pioneers Hut which was the Homesteads main kitchen, available for accommodation*( Please feel free to ask for more details )

The Elm Cabin is fully self contained and has its own completely enclosed yard in the front and rear.
The front yard is graced with an amazing 165 year old Elm tree which supplies an incredible umbrella for picnics and BBQs on those hot summer days and in winter it sheds its leaves to allow the warm snow season sun through and exposes its wonderous limbs.
Some of the cabins features include a reverse cycle air conditioner, full size fridge, 32 LED TV, DVD player, washing machine and dryer, fully equipped kitchen and cooking facilities,( Includes all pots, pans, cutlery, crockery, utensils ) bed linen, towels, BBQ and outdoor fireplace.
We also supply the Cabin with tea & coffee, milk and sugar.
All linen, towels,etc. are supplied.

Black Horse Park is centrally and ideally located; 15 mins to Mansfield township 20 mins to Mt Buller 10 mins to Goughs Bay 15 mins to Macs Cove, Howqua Inlet and Jamieson.
While in the high country why not pack a picnic lunch and take a leisurely drive to the King Valley wine region, stopping at Powers Lookout along the way, it's simply breathtaking. When you arrive at Whitfield (approx. 45 mins.) you're biggest decision will be which winery to go to, there's about ten in the area...... Oh just try them all! Black Horse Park is an all year round holiday location. The area caters for: Snow skiing / snowboarding at Mt Buller, fishing / swimming at the Delatite River (just 2mins away), horse riding in Mansfield State Forest / Victorian High Country, mountain biking / cycling at the rail trail and Mt Buller ( We have bikes and helmets available for hire) four wheel driving and exploring, golf at Mansfield Golf Club or just enjoy a gourmet platter and a glass of fine local wine at one of the local wineries.

Lake Eildon is only 10 minutes away so why not bring your boat, we have heaps of room to park it safely.
Goughs Bay has three great concrete ramps so you can always access the lake no matter what the water level is.
Besides all the usual water sport activities you should try the bars / resaurants on the waters edge, just pull up, tie up and enjoy.

These are just a few of the wonderful activities on offer. If you would like to bring you're horse and ride the vast expanses of the Victorian High Country, it's on our doorstep, with endless tracks to ride you'll be amazed at the breathtaking scenery and awesome riding trails.

We have excellent horse friendly paddocks and four post and rail yards with water and washing facilities and plenty of room to park the float.
You don't even have to bring your own hay as we have plenty of good quality grass hay here you can buy at a very reasonable price.
Your horse can stay for $10 per night or if you are unable to bring one don't worry we can arrange local horses and guides for you. During your stay at Black Horse Park, feel free to wander the property, fish for Red Fin, Rainbow trout and Yabbies or even have a swim in our large clean dam, sip on a glass of you're favourite wine, read a book or just have an afternoon nap.

For instant book and an extensive gallery of the property please search Black Horse Park.

Please be aware there are other accommodation options on the property and there may be other guests in close proximity. If you are looking for a peaceful
and tranquil getaway then Black Horse Park is the place for you.

We hope to hear from you soon.

comfort and tranquility
Elm Cabin is a delight. Warm, well equipped, comfortable and thoughtfully decorated, the cabin is a most pleasant place to unwind. The property has a welcoming party of well-groomed and courteous dogs, and whimsical miniature horses and crooning heifers (feeding time is hilarious). Bob, the proprietor, is very responsive and a wonderful host. This quiet and beautifully maintained property is a wonderful pick me up.

Idyllic. Relaxing break.
Great place for a break with opportunity to mingle with other guests or keep to yourself. The dam was fun to swim in. We enjoyed the cows and the family dogs. Dog friendly accommodation. Our cottage had a fence around it, so our dog was safe. Fantastic, shady tree in the front yard to keep cool under. Close to lots of day trips such as Sheepyard Flat and Craig’s Hut. Thank you for allowing us to share your property Rob.

Clean, cozy, charming stay with lovely grounds and real "Australiana" feel
As a large group we probably needed a few more pots and pans to cater for the large meals however the properties were clean, plenty of bedding and it is such a beautiful, charming, authentic place to stay. We were a family reunion group with kids of different ages, we skied, rode horses, cooked, walked etc. It was just lovely and great to have the dogs too. Thank you so much

Clean, cosy, warm and close enough to the mountain.
A great place to come back to after a day on the mountain. Efficient kitchen, plenty of heating, warm electric blanket and supplies of bath towel. Comfortable bed and linen. Beautiful surroundings and lovely dogs that greet you when you come home but don’t expect anything than a hello! Will definitely stay again. Thank you Rob.

Cosy and neat
Great that there was some fresh food. ( organic super delicious eggs, orange juice, butter, bread , milk )That really surprised us, as you don’t get anything like that anywhere. So that’s a huge positive! The place is neat ,cosy and clean, and has heaters so it’s great! Only 45 mins from Mt Buller and close to Mansfield . The view is cool. We liked the farm atmosphere:) thank you very much !
