Galahad's Animal Sanctuary & B&B / Tour / Farmstay

I give my guests space, but am available when needed.
Your hostess Lynne McAlister delights in sharing her home and will go out of her way to ensure a memorable stay. Lynne has been a local in the region for 20 years and will endeavour to ensure you see all that the Macedon Ranges has to offer.

The rate includes a small tour of our farm sanctuary. If you would like a tour with professional photography please contact Lynne for details.

Further details on the stories of our animals and our mission can be found here: https://www.galahads-sanctuary.com/. Why not consider sponsoring an animal?

Gisborne town centre is a 5 minute drive, with plenty of cafes, restaurants and supermarkets to choose from. We are 15 minutes from Mount Macedon, if you fancied hiking or sight seeing.

Macedon Ranges is renowned for its many wineries, golf courses, historic towns and streetscapes. Regional parks and private estates (some of which are open to the public from Spring to Autumn). We are your gateway to the festivals, monthly markets, the Memorial Cross at Mt Macedon, Sanctuary Lake, Camels Hump Lookout and Hanging Rock and its mysterious history, all ready for you to discover.

There is a country train station at Gisborne. We are also 10 minutes drive from the metro train station at Sunbury.

We are near the heart of Gisborne Village. Leave Melbourne on the Tullamarine Fwy, merge onto the Calder Fwy and then drive to the Gisborne exit, which is about 20 minutes drive.

Galahad's Sanctuary is set on 30 picturesque acres in Gisborne with views to Mount Macedon and is an animal rescue sanctuary. Galahad's Sanctuary has rescued many animals, including camels, horses, donkeys, cows, sheep, alpacas, chickens and a rooster as well as dogs. When you stay with us, all proceeds go to the feed and care of all the animals at Galahad's Sanctuary.

The property has two dams, it is well treed with large open spaces and many wild Kangaroos, as well as Possums and Echidna's also live here. There are beautiful areas for picnics or just to sit and watch the animals. You will be able to walk around the property, however please stay out of the large animal paddocks without supervision.

Please note this is a working farm environment, it sometimes can be messy and smell like animals. Animals can be noisy e.g. a rooster who crows in the morning, and a camel who growls when she is pleased to see you. Not to mention the donkeys!
