Accommodation at Tophouse
Comfort, quiet and million-dollar views
Historic Bed & Breakfast
The rooms are tastefully styled for their vintage. They’re not large—they didn’t build ‘em big in 1887—but they’re cozy. Ensuites weren’t a thing back then either, so two bathrooms and two separate toilets are shared among the four guestrooms.
Due to safety and noise considerations the B&B isn’t suitable for babies or children under 8 years of age.
From $140/one person; $160/couple
Four guestrooms: 2 X queen, 1 X double, 1 X twin.
Breakfast: full Continental plus bacon and eggs.
Cottages
Comfortable and warm, each 2-bedroom cottage is fully self-contained and sleeps 4–5 depending on configuration. We can supply an additional stretcher bed on request.
If you don’t feel like cooking, book dinner (we need 24 hours notice) or a hearty breakfast served in our dining room. Treat yourself—yummo!
From $150/one person, $180/couple, $25pp extra
Three cottages sleep four, one sleeps five.
Breakfast: $25pp extra, full Continental plus bacon and eggs.
Motorhomes & Caravans
Power, maybe. Possibly a beverage or two, a hot shower and access to a washing machine. Somewhere for the kids to run around. And the strangely soothing sight of alpacas tearing around the paddock.
We’ve got all that! We’ll even serve you dinner if you give us enough notice (24 hours, thanks).
Please note all vehicles MUST be self-contained.
From $20/unpowered, $25/powered per vehicle
Shower: $5pp.
Washing machine: $5 per load.
Breakfast: $25pp extra, full Continental plus bacon and eggs.
