Summer Holidays

Something a bit different - avoid the traffic queues and inflated prices and head out to the foothills of the Great Divide for a few days of country air. Cool nights and longer days packed with horse riding, pool and river swimming, gold panning, tractor rides, bush exploring. If you have overseas visitors, a few days at Chesleigh will give them a great 'Aussie bush experience'.

Australia Day weekend.

Friday 23rd Jan to Monday 26th Jan 2008

Last chance for a few days with the family before school returns. Refreshing pool and river swimming, horse riding, gold panning, tractor rides, games room and this year on Australia day Sofala comes to life with street stalls and entertainment. Also Chesleigh has a trophy for the champion 'Thong Toss'.

Child free weekend

We realise that sometimes young (or older) lovers want to relax in a venue which is child free. Sometimes even the most devoted parents want to enjoy a weekend free of their responsibilities and hence other people's children.

Chesleigh is a family friendly venue, but to cater for those who would like to relax in a child free environment, we offer regular child free weekends.
Please enquire about our next one.

Halloween Party...October 31st to Nov 2nd.

Weekends anytime

You will arrive to the warmth of the glowing lights of Chesleigh. After a supper of chunky farmhouse soup, crusty homemade bread, pate and other sustaining goodies, the evening is yours for challenges in our games room, an unwind with a glass of red by our evening campfire, or simply to fade away to the comfort of your comfy bed with its feather doona.

Next morning the beauty of Chesleigh reveals itself and after a hearty country breakfast, there is horse riding on offer, exploring the local area, a game of tennis or a bracing walk on one of the many walking trails Chesleigh has to offer. After a delicious lunch, an afternoon nap might be in order, or a massage, or a soak in the hot spa, or maybe all three! If you are the adventurous type, you might like to pan for gold in one of our creeks or head for the hills to take in some wildlife or just to breathe our sweet fresh air.

People usually reassemble by one of those fires for a pre dinner tipple before the famous Chesleigh Saturday night dinner followed by entertainment by Mike Cody, the well known local performance poet.

After another blissful night's sleep and great country breakfast, the morning is for more horse adventures, perhaps a game of bocce on the lawn, a catch up on the book you meant to read, a clamber to one of the lookouts on the property, or ZZZ.

The Chesleigh Sunday BBQ is famous and has photos taken to all parts of the world (it tastes delicious too).

People reluctantly head towards home sometime in the afternoon, having had a magic weekend.
