Country charm meets laid-back luxury, where time slows and hairy moos roam


Tucked between the rolling hills of the Huon Valley, Eden Farm sits just outside the charming town of Cygnet. Our 40-acre property is a relaxed country escape, perfect for families, couples, or small groups. The heart of your stay is a beautifully restored 1935 Barn, now a warm and welcoming retreat for up to 9 guests, with space for extra cots if needed.

Once solely an apple orchard, the farm has evolved into a blend of productive gardens, fruit trees, open paddocks, and a friendly mix of farm animals. Guests are invited to join our daily afternoon feeding tours — a chance to meet the animals and experience farm life up close.

We also craft our own raw, unfiltered apple cider vinegar and small-batch artisan cider right here on the farm. Wander the paddocks, keep an eye out for native wildlife, and you might even spot our resident platypus in one of the dams.

Eden Farm is all about slowing down, reconnecting, and enjoying the simple pleasures of nature. Breathe in the fresh Tasmanian air — it’s country living at its finest.

To follow our life on the farm visit our facebook page.

We are in the middle of the Huon Valley and close to great beaches and fishing spots, we have rods available on request. Also close are The Tahune Airwalk, Hastings Caves, Bruny Island and the Salamanca markets just to name a few. A special mention of all the of great Vineyards and restaurants is in place or get your hands on our fresh local produce and cook up a storm in your own kitchen.

A fantastic place where they have thought of everything

Absolutely loved our stay at the Barn. The accommodation is super spacious, very comfortable beds and every little personal touch to make it feel like home. Our hosts Yolanda and Malcolm gave us a tour of their lovely farm and it was a real bonus being able to feed the animals each day we were there. Cannot recommend highly enough - we will definitely be back!

Beautiful accommodation in rural setting.

We had a wonderful stay and loved the house. It's so well renovated and thoughtfully designed. It was also so warm and cosy with a real log fire and heating for the chilly mornings. We especially loved the animals and farm tour, thank you so much. The breakfast food and nibbles were greatly appreciated too. You couldn't have done more. :)

Wonderful, Peaceful and comfortable.

The property was everything and more than described and in photos. Jolande and Matthew were incredibly friendly and helpful. The barn had everything you could want. The animals were adorable. There were 2 couples and 1 single adult and we loved everything available to us. This was a most interesting barn, warm and full of wonderful fixtures and furnishings. The beds were so comfortable. We loved the small town of Cygnet too and would highly recommend the area of wineries and apple cider cellar doors.

Tranquility in Cygnet

The Barn is a fabulous place to stay whether you are a party of 2 or 10. It exceeded all expectations, generously equipped kitchen ,funky bathrooms, spacious living room and bedrooms, sun drenched terrace with stunning views across cherry & apple orchards. We made friends with the goats (especially the kid escapee) & hens - no sightings of platypus this time but plenty more to distract you on a stroll to the dams. Cygnet & surrounding area is such a wonderful place to visit - kayaking, wine tasting, Cygnet Bakery, shopping are only a few things we got up to! Highly recommend, we will be back!

A wonderful short family farm stay

Matt and Jo are wonderful and very helpful hosts. The location of the farm was great, only a short drive to Cygnet, 20 mins to Kettering and 10mins to Huonville, and just across the road from Pagan Cider cellar doors (and by the way, we highly recommend their cherry cider... yum!) We have 3 kids, ages 10, 12 and 14. All 3 absolutely enjoyed their stays and time with the animals. And yes, there were heaps of animals to feed and play with. From hairy highland cows (and a very friendly bull), sheep, goats, pigs, gorgeous alpacas, ducks, and fluffy hens. There is also a platypus or two, but we did not get a chance to see it in our stay. would highly recommend the stay to any family with kids who love animals. we'll definitely try to make it back next time we are in Tassie.
