About Ullswater
Ullswater is a small rural locality in south-western Victoria, situated in the Glenelg region near the South Australian border. With a population of fewer than 50 people spread across an expansive area of around 75 square kilometres, the locality is defined by its wide pastoral landscapes and quiet agricultural character. The area is characterised by grazing properties, native bush, and the open skies typical of the Wimmera–South West district. Its sparse settlement and large lot sizes make it a distinctly rural outpost far removed from urban life.
Life in Ullswater revolves around farming and the close-knit connections of a remote rural community. The nearest major service centres are Casterton and Coleraine, which provide schools, medical services, and retail facilities. Residents here typically own large rural holdings and rely on private vehicles for all daily needs. The locality appeals to those seeking the solitude of the Victorian countryside and the lifestyle that comes with wide open spaces and minimal development.
