Reibey Farm is an idyllic place to live and farm but as a commercial venture it’s also ideal for a corporate or wellbeing retreat, wedding or private function venue, and/or film location (STCA) being just one hour and 15 minutes from Sydney’s CBD.
Almost fully encompassed by the life giving Colo River, Reibey Farm is host to the best prime alluvial soil, and the stunning estate has seen many memories created over the generations including those belonging to Mary Reibey who graces our 20 dollar note.
