Mooramong Estate Heritage Rural Retreat

More Information

Step into the natural elegance of Mooramong Estate, just 50 minutes west of Ballarat. Nestled among golden plains, Mooramong offers three beautifully restored cottages—Overseers, Roustabout, and Stockmans Cottage. Each blends historic charm with modern comforts, creating a unique retreat.

Once home to millionaire Donald ‘Scobie’ MacKinnon and Hollywood star Claire Adams, Mooramong Estate is where history and nature converge. The cottages retain their character while offering everything needed for a relaxing stay.

Embrace rural living, waking to the peaceful countryside. Explore picturesque trails, discover birdlife from the secluded hide, or head to the nearby Skipton-Ballarat Rail Trail. In the evening, toast marshmallows by the firepit, sip local wines, and gaze at starry skies.

During warmer months, enjoy a swim in the Homestead’s pool (open in summer months) or play tennis on the heritage court. Located near Skipton, with easy access to the Pyrenees Wine Region and the Grampians, Mooramong is your gateway to adventure.

Designed for slow tourism, Mooramong cottages offer limited phone reception and minimal internet, encouraging you to disconnect and recharge. Rediscover the art of relaxation at Mooramong Estate, where history, nature, and tranquility await.
