Located just a five-minute drive to the historic village of Port Fairy,  Lot Three is a thoughtfully rebuilt and curated old dairy, designed just for two. Away from the hustle and bustle but close to town, Lot Three is the place to unwind and embrace the stillness.

Preserving the integrity of the old dairy that once stood here, Lot Three has been lovingly recreated to include all the modern conveniences that will make your slow-stay a truly memorable one.

Set on a peaceful 10-acre farm, Lot Three is studio-style accommodation that is well away from the traffic, with separate access from the main residence.

With its own private north-facing courtyard, you can sip on a glass of bubbles while soaking in the outdoor bathtub, enjoy a wine by the firepit watching the breathtaking sunsets, or find a sunny spot to catch up on that book.

See the sun rise from the comfort of your bed, or curl up on the linen sofa by the wood fire and watch a movie on the Smart TV. Listen to music or just embrace the silence. The choice is yours, whatever the season.

Despite its size, Lot Three dairy comes equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay. 

Luxuriate in the king size bed fitted with high quality cotton and linen bedding, and featuring a MicroCloud mattress, topper, quilt and pillows.

Our well-appointed kitchenette has Smeg appliances, including a coffee machine, gas hotplates, microwave oven, a small fridge – and all the bits and pieces you could need to whip up a gourmet feast, if that's your thing.

Pantry basics are provided as well as ground coffee and loose-leaf tea. Guests are welcome to wander around our extensive vegetable patch to pick farm-fresh, seasonal produce and gather eggs from the chickens when they are laying. We also supply plenty of wood, kindling and firelighters.

Outside in the old milking bales you'll find a BBQ, table, chairs and an umbrella - perfect for an evening of alfresco dining. And of course, the firepit.

Lot Three is your place to disconnect from the world, and reconnect with the things that matter most…

We offer self check-in/out.

Check-in/check-out times

Check-in is after 3pm and check-out is by 11am. If you are planning on an earlier arrival please let us know - while we can’t promise, we will do our best to accommodate you.

Other things of note

We are located in a rural area, as such the Wi Fi is often slow and/or intermittent.  Lot Three has been designed for a slow-stay experience, encouraging you to unwind, relax and disconnect. 

Where possible we avoid the use of single use plastics and we encourage composting and recycling. You will find a compost bin in the kitchen and a recycling bin in the courtyard. We rely solely on rain water, we are connected to solar, and we have a septic system. Lot Three is north-facing, fully insulated and has double glazing, and we use eco-friendly cleaning products.

Our ethos during the construction and fit-out of Lot Three has been to repurpose, reuse and recycle where we can.  We hope you find joy in all the treasures of Lot Three, as much as we enjoyed sourcing them and restoring them.

The dairy has been specifically designed, furnished and fitted out with couples in mind, as such we are  unable to accommodate babies or children.  We appreciate your understanding.

As we have stock on the property and Lot Three dairy is not fully fenced, we are unable to have your furry friends stay. Again, we are grateful for your understanding.
