Emma Hinchliffe
Director
Talk to me about property management, real estate, Harrietville and fun family activities.
Emma landed in the area in 2000 for a season at Mount Hotham, then some back & forth for a few more. Eventually in 2005 Emma & Tom settled in Harrietville and started a cafe/wine bar. By 2007, bubs no. 1 was on the way and Emma was asked to help look after 3 holiday units in town… flash forward a couple of years and the cafe was sold and Alpine Valley Getaways was well & truly established. As they say, the rest is history!
