A relaxing stay in a gorgeous setting

Our stay at The Glen was wonderful. The house was spotlessly clean with everything we needed for our stay including a well equipped kitchen, comfy beds and air conditioning in every bedroom. We enjoyed swimming, fishing and kayaking from the lovely sandy riverbank on the property. The house is only a few minutes from town but sitting on the verandah surrounded by the grapevines and birdsong feels very secluded and peaceful. The local cows were a highlight for the kids. Our host, Jack, was lovely to communicate with, we just wish we could have stayed longer!

Girls getaway

Great spot easy drive to all the wineries in the area. Also lovely scenic drives to Mt Buffalo and Bright. Good outdoor areas to sit and relax in the evening . Plenty of chairs and couches too. Fire pit area was good, but it was to warm for us to use. Would be awesome in winter with the stars above. Highly recommend for any type of get together.

Beautiful spot right on the river!

The Glen is a character home in a tranquil, riverside setting. It is spacious and comfortable, clean and organised and an easy drive to the beautiful historic towns of Beechworth and Chilton. Jack met us on arrival, and was really friendly and helpful with ideas of where to go, and what to do. His inclusions of wine, bread, milk and eggs were well received, and we loved being immersed in the music of the record player! We highly recommend a stay at The Glen on Ovens River!

Our Ovens Getaway

The Glen is a credit to Jack who has lovingly restored this beautiful heritage home. Every detail for the guest comfort has been catered for. We stayed thru 42 degree heat and were perfectly comfortable with air con in all bedrooms and living areas. Beautifully furnished and well equipped kitchen and bathrooms. Jack was a wonderful host who provided food and wine on arrival, which was so welcoming. Would recommend to anyone considering a short stay or longer.

Perfect Farmhouse, Perfect Location

Faultless. Excellent setting with all mod cons, yet retaining the country homestead charm. Loads of room with a variety of recreation spaces inside and outside. Situated on the banks of the Ovens River, yet only a couple of mins from Wangaratta and super easy 30 min drive to Beechworth, King Valley and other places. Super clean. Our summary is: Simply perfect. We are planning our next return visit.

Perfect girls weekender

We were looking for something just out of town when I found Jacks place The Glen Just far enough out of town to enjoy the peace and quiet , the house was very clean and extremely well equipped with everything you needed . A bottle of wine and some nice bread on the bench was a nice touch .

Great spot for a group

Beautiful farm house which would be a terrific spot for a group of friends to go, relax and soak up the atmosphere by the fires (outside and in). Everything you need is available to you, including condiments and homewares. Also the added bonus of your own citrus trees - beautiful oranges straight from the tree, yum.
