6 of the most unique accommodations in Australia to check in to - SilverKris

"Experience two cultures in one at The Lily, a Dutch-inspired and Dutch-built windmill set against the dramatic backdrop of the Stirling Range. Designed to look like a 16th-century Dutch windmill, The Lily is the only operational flour producing windmill on mainland Australia. You can choose from several quaint self-contained accommodations which sleeps between two to six people, each with its own outdoor seating area and fully equipped with all the mod-cons. For something extra special, book yourself into the Dakota, an original military transport aircraft that is now parked alongside The Lily. Within the forward half of the passenger section is the bedroom with two single beds while the former navigator’s room has been converted into a bathroom. A small kitchen is located next to the doors, giving you a chance to enjoy your own “inflight” meal. The cockpit remains intact and offers a glimpse of the plane in its halcyon days." - Vanessa Tai

A most pleasant and relaxing two night stay at this most homely accommodation. Our stay enhanced our walking and slow hiking in the Stirlings. We stayed at the Wine Cellar Cottage which was beautifully clean and decorated. We requested a breakfast basket for one morning. The spelt bread , if you know your bread, was manna from heaven. The hosts Pleune and Hennie were most welcoming and were rightly take pride in their service. Early morning 6AM and evening 6:30 PM views of the Stirling Rage covered in rolling mist looking from just from the front of the Windmill were priceless. If you want to enjoy the Stirlings you mist stay at the Lilly.

What an incredible stay for my birthday, we stayed in the Dakota c47 plane from the war that crashed up north and made its way down here to the Stirling ranges. The host was incredible and told us all about the history of the plane while showing us around the accommodation. About a 15m drive from bluff Knoll, beautiful place to watch the stars and the accommodation itself was very comfortable with everything we needed (real coffee was definitely a plus) Looking forward to our next stay :)

An incredible place. The accomodations are worthy of more stars and the windmill is an absolute must-see. Great pace to visit and also good as a base for walking the Stirling Ranges. Owners are gracious and fascinating people who amazing hosts.

2 nights of delight. An awesome experience. Hosts Pleun and Hennie are amazing. We saw too much to detail here, and we highly recommend the accommodations. Rooms to suit all tastes and budget. This is first class. Thank you for a wonderful time.

We had an amazing stay at the Lily for a great weekend of hiking Bluff Knoll and relaxation. ||The property itself has the most insanely stunning views, the working Windmill, the Dakota and the Stirling range in the background behind rolling fields of wheat all add up to something so special and the sunsets both nights were absolutely mind-blowing. ||We had a 2 night stay in the Dakota (DC3) which was just great. So unique and really well converted into a tiny-house style BnB. Everything you could need is in there and the breakfast basket was well worth it. We were there on a particularly hot weekend, however the aircon in the Dakota kept up well to keep us comfortable. ||Perfect as a base-camp for a hike at Bluff Knoll (15 minutes down the road). ||The owners Hennie and Pleun were both fantastic and attentive to any needs we had. They set a really great vibe right from the get-go as you go into their really unique reception. ||Couple things to note: |If you are particularly tall (6ft +) you may struggle a little in the Dakota. There is plenty of head-room except for the cockpit/bathroom and the kitchenette. |The beds and benchtops are all level, but the floor ramps up to the nose of the plane. It can be a little unsettling at first but you get used to it. |Bring some bacon to go with your brekkie basket and you will have a great bacon and egg meal on their home-made spelt bread. ||Thank you so much guys. We will be back.

This was one of the most unique self catering experiences we have every had. If you are an aeroplane enthusiast as well as an avid hiker, staying at The Lily while you hike the Stirling Ranges, is blissful. From one window of the Dakota, we felt like we were looking over the African bush, from another the Stirling Ranges stand proud and the beautifully handcrafted working windmill on the property hints at a bygone era. Absolutely magical place. There are couple extra surprises, the owner plays the most beautiful jazz and they mill spelt flour onsite. We were entranced by all that has been achieved at The Lily. It is worth adding this was the cleanest and most well-equipped self catering we have ever stayed in too. Happy hiking, and sweet dreams.
