The Black Sparrow

We were 6 couples, stayed in two 3 bedroom chalets over the long weekend. The location was simply stunning. The facilities were excellent. We did a lot of walking in & around the property, visited wineries & the local brewery. We played tennis, had BBQ’s and sing song sessions around a campfire with a clear night sky. We watched kangaroos hop across the property and listened to the Kookaburras. Watching the sunset whilst sipping a glass of wine on the verandah was spectacular. All-in-all a fantastic weekend away - relaxing & enjoyable. Our host Earl was very accomodating with the many changes we requested due to Covid. Thoroughly recommended if you’d like quality time-off away from the busy rat race. Definitely on our plan to revisit this place. Excellent for young families too. They will enjoy the farm animals on the property. Thank you for an amazing experience.

Our cottage at The Black Sparrow was cosy and warm for our winter getaway. It was clean and comfortable and everything worked well. It was quiet and set in a beautiful location. We arrived when it was dark, so the narrow dirt roads were a little difficult to navigate and additional lighting might have helped. Overall, a fantastic place to stay for a few nights, very peaceful and private and just as close to Mt Buller for skiing as the more expensive Mansfield. Thanks!

Wonderful peace and quiet. Saw many kangaroos and the kids loved the tennis court and giant chess. Took day trips snowboarding at Mt Buller and returned to a cottage with great heating and spa bath. Beds were very comfortable and the accommodation extremely clean. Would highly recommend. Sue

I got to postpone my trip due to the recent flood and Earl was very understanding and agreed to my date changes with no extra charge. Room view was amazing...stunning. Internet was good. Had a short blackout and Earl was quick in responding to confirm that it was a blackout but power back in a short while. Overall love this place and will be back again.
