Wattletree Health Group provides exceptional home nursing services in Clarkefield (postcode 3430), a historic rural locality in the Macedon Ranges Shire, about 45km north-west of Melbourne’s CBD. Our experienced, AHPRA-registered nurses support clients in Clarkefield and neighbouring Riddells Creek, Sunbury, New Gisborne and Romsey, whether the need is short-term after a hospital stay or ongoing, long-term clinical care.
Clarkefield is a small historic township in the Macedon Ranges, set on the banks of Riddells Creek and surrounded by the gentle pastoral and viticultural landscape of one of Victoria’s most beautiful rural corridors. The locality’s railway station on the Melbourne–Bendigo line provided early significance as a stopping point for travellers heading north during the gold rush era, and the bluestone railway station building — now heritage-listed — is one of the area’s most tangible connections to its nineteenth-century past. The Macedon Ranges region surrounding Clarkefield is renowned for its cool-climate wine producers, apple orchards and artisan food producers, and the broader area attracts visitors year-round who come to enjoy the scenic landscape, walking tracks in the Macedon Regional Park and the township characters of Woodend, Kyneton and Gisborne. The Calder Freeway provides fast connections to Melbourne for commuters and visitors alike.
