Luxury Farm Stay in Mount Macedon | Resort-Style Living in Nature, sleeps 12

Thule Country Estate is one of the Macedon Ranges' most distinctive group properties — a 36-acre private farm estate sleeping 12 across six bedrooms, just 45 minutes from Melbourne.
The home was designed by Paul Couch, one of Australia's most respected modernist architects, known for pioneering concrete in residential design and his ability to place a building gently within its landscape. The result is a home that feels both architecturally striking and deeply comfortable — large open-plan living and dining, a fully equipped kitchen for groups, and every bedroom appointed to a high standard.
Heating is taken seriously here: hydronic heating runs throughout the home, reverse-cycle systems cover every bedroom and living area, and a wood fireplace anchors the lounge. Whatever season you visit, you'll be comfortable.
Full property — exclusive use. No shared spaces, no neighbouring guests, no noise.
On-site facilities:

Private lake — fishing and picnics at the water's edge
Solar-heated swimming pool (November–March)
Tennis court and basketball court, all equipment supplied
Games room — table tennis, darts, gym equipment
Alfresco dining — pizza oven, outdoor firepit, Weber BBQ
Smart TVs, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth speaker, capsule coffee machine
Workstations in multiple bedrooms; dining room suitable for small meetings
Pet friendly — well-behaved pets are welcome

The farm and grounds
This is a genuine farm stay — not a manicured resort dressed up as one. Resident Highland cows and goats live on the property. Kangaroos roam the paddocks freely. The lake attracts beautiful birdlife. Mount Macedon is visible from several spots across the 36 acres, including the master bedroom and pool deck.
Kids and adults alike tend to spend more time outside than they expect.
