Glen Avon Farm

Glen Avon Farm is a Bed and Breakfast establishment. A visit to this unique historical farm near Somerset East is like taking a step into the past. Some of the buildings date back to 1817 and the guest cottages are furnished with restored furniture from days gone by.

The Glen Avon Farm was first owned by Robert Hart who is known as "The Father of the 1820 Settlers" and today's owners are his direct descendents. The original 1820 homesteads and the historic Glen Avon Water Mill are just a few of the attractions.
