Pilliga Pottery and Farmstay
Escape to this eco-friendly, pet-friendly farm in regional NSW.
Overview
Perched on the edge of a nature reserve, this small-scale organic farm powers an on-site cafe and pottery centre. Here, you can master the potter's wheel, create adorable pinch pots or become a dab hand at glazing in tailored workshops.
There are a number of accommodation options for overnight stays, including unpowered campsites, but it'd be hard to pass up a night in the old schoolhouse. This enchanting octagonal structure sits above the ground on stilts carved from local timber. It's filled with handcrafted furniture and carefully sculpted fixtures that create an almost cartoonish fairytale atmosphere.
Include a farm tour with barnyard animal encounters or a bird watching tour in your trip for the full family holiday among the gumtrees experience. Or, if you want to level up, opt for a helicopter tour to get a bird's eye view of Warrumbungle National Park and Pilliga Nature Reserve.
