Gulf Station Open Day

Visit Gulf Station and learn what life was like for a family living on the land in nineteenth century Australia.

Gulf Station is an extraordinary survival of Victoria’s farming heritage, showcasing self-sufficiency and resilience.

The farm buildings are all hand constructed using traditional techniques making use of the materials available. They show the development of the farm and its domestic uses.

Gulf Station Open Days

First Thursday & Last Sunday of the Month

Families can choose a guided tour at 11:30 am or roam at their own pace, wandering through the homestead, old schoolhouse, and outbuildings. Meet the friendly Clydesdales, visit the sheep, and explore the sheds and barns where you can imagine life on a working farm.

Bring a picnic to enjoy on the lawn and immerse yourself in the domestic life of a colonial farming family, where a mother’s word was law and hard work was part of daily life.
