Inside The Bachelor mansion: Take a tour of the luxury Hamptons-style estate where Locky Gilbert will be handing out roses
Locklan ‘Locky’ Gilbert has promised viewers that this year’s season of The Bachelor will see an epic love story unfold on screen.
And it seems the filming location in northern Sydney is the perfect backdrop for the romantic dates and candlelit cocktail parties.
The sprawling four-acre property in Oxford Falls, known as Nelly’s Farm, offers Locky and his 25 contestants a luxury home away from home.

The Hamptons-style retreat has four bedrooms, four bathrooms, perfectly-manicured grounds and a large swimming pool.
A long, winding tree-lined driveway provides the perfect entrance for the ladies to meet the former Australian Survivor star on the first night.
No expense is spared in giving the entry a romantic feel, as the pathway will be decked out with thousands of twinkling fairy lights.
Rest and relaxation: The pool provides fun for the women who don’t make the group dates
The lush green lawns offer plenty of room for outdoor entertaining, and there are also romantic nooks for private interludes at the cocktail parties.
Meanwhile, the pool provides fun for the women who don’t make the group dates.
The charming white-and-glass exterior has been given a makeover for the show as well, and is shown decked out in flowers and garlands in a recent trailer.
The interiors have been decorated with red furnishings and fine homewares, which create the feel of a Mills & Boon-inspired romantic escape.
The only downside is that the women will have to bunk together at the start of the season because there are only four bedrooms.
The Bachelor Australia premieres tonight at 7.30pm on Channel 10
