This is a day trip well worth doing. You can wander around at your own pace looking at all the fantastic exhibits. Of which there are a large number. There are working displays timed throughout the day. There is plenty of walking owing to the vast number of displays in the various buildings. It is of interest to all ages. There are photo opportunities with some of the displays such as the sulky, fire truck and rail ambulance. You can have a snack and drink at the Tea rooms. All the buildings are numbered. You are given a map of the village and 62 buildings and displays to ensure you do not miss anything.

Absolutely blew us away at all the displays that are here. Only had a day to view but could’ve spent days here. Recommend getting three day pass to take it all in if you have the time.

Goodness me, we were overwhelmed with how much there was to see here. They have done an extraordinary job of collecting old artifacts and have even had some old buildings transported here. Whatever you are interested in is bound to be here. From old cars, farm machinery, mining equipment, dolls, dresses, toys, phones, police uniforms, indigenous objects, the list goes on. We unfortunately only had a few hours to spend there, you could easily spend an entire day looking at everything there. They also have displays on at different times of the day, such as blacksmithing and using old machines. Well worth the visit to Herberton but try and give yourself a full day if you are interested in wonderful collectables.

Seemingly Endless hours of FASINAT IONS as village takes visitors thru several eras.Meticuosly kept grounds of 16 AC,it seems bigger..Prepare to spend 4 hrs ++ or you'll miss out on things..Free coffee or tea during this 1st day,you'll need refreshments..Going thru Herbytown,over bridge,it's just past & on right.It deserves 10 stars-!!

Hard to pinpoint a favourite part of this attraction - we loved it all. Maybe the beautifully renovated Elderslie House...?. Very well presented and SO many antiques and displays. Everything was laid out so well and obviously well cared for. Spent 6 hours there but could have spent a week.
