NOTICE
We wish to advise that as of January 1, 2025, Stranraer Homestead will no longer be offering their traditional hosted dinner, bed and breakfast service. Please note that all existing bookings will be honoured at the traditional service level.
Stranraer Homestead is located on a 3000-acre working sheep farm which has been in the Wheaton family for generations and the hospitality is legendary.
There are currently two accommodation options available:
- The Workman’s Cottage
- Wattle Grove Cottage
Touring can be share or private. Guests arriving at Stranraer on a Saturday afternoon through the summer are often surprised to find a local cricket game in full swing as Stranraer provides the home grounds for MacGillivray Cricket Club and the Wheatons have been keen participants over generations.
