The Yurtfarm

The Yurtfarm is a working-farm stay near Goulburn (at Mummel), offering yurts and camping among sheep and Highland cattle. It is genuinely dog-friendly, but in the specific way a working farm has to be: your dog is welcome as long as it is well-behaved and stays on-leash around the stock at all times.

The pet policy. Well-behaved dogs are allowed in the yurt and on the surrounding campsites. Because this is a working farm with livestock, dogs must be kept on a leash at all times, and a strict leave-no-trace policy applies. Fees and size limits are not spelled out in public listings, so confirm those, and the leashing expectation, directly when you book. The honest read: this suits a calm, stock-safe dog, not one that will fixate on sheep.

The place. Yurt accommodation with a family-friendly, farm-stay feel and kids' activities, drawing very strong reviews. It is an experience stay rather than a roadside overnight, so plan to settle in.

Location and nearby. Out at Mummel near Goulburn, rural and quiet. It is a drive from the Goulburn town cafes and dog parks, so treat the farm itself as the destination rather than a base for town outings.

Before you book. Confirm any pet fee, check there is no issue with your dog around livestock, and be honest with yourself about whether your dog will hold a leash calmly near sheep and cattle. Best for owners with a steady, stock-safe dog who want a proper farm escape.
