A rural escape close to the city
3 families stayed here for a long weekend. The weather was great for swimming in the pool (waist deep and unheated but warm enough), there were ample kitchen and glassware, comfy beds and the highlight was the fire pit which we used nightly. The playground was a bit tired, and you have to bring bottled water beyond 10L provided, but the house was still brilliant for kids and adults, and we’d happily stay again.

Amazing relaxing stay in stunning surrounds!
We had a fantastic winter weekend stay with friends at this property. The kids loved the farm animals & the space to run around! The views were just beautiful & made for a very relaxing weekend by the outside fire. We didn’t venture far at all which was perfect. The house is warm & cosy with everything you need for an easy stay. We’ll be back!

Great family stay
The property has everything you could need for a family group. We had 8 adults and 3 small children and we enjoyed everything that was offered. The place could do with a could clean. The furniture in main room is fabric and needs thorough cleaning. There is only 6 chairs for a place catering for 10. One of the queen beds was terribly hard and couldn’t be slept on but the other beds were good. Overall the property has fantastic views, animals the little ones loved and everything you could need.

Outstanding holiday
As a great getaway, we are always on the lookout for somewhere that is great for out 3 and 4 year old to explore outdoors with nature and animals. We have had the most amazing time on this farm. We became so attached to their pets that it was sad to leave. The views were just so breathtaking. Polen was very attentative to our enquiries at all times and deffinately a great host. One of the best holidays we have been on. You have to head down there.

A Pleasant Getaway!
A great location and easy drive from Melbourne for a short stay. The house is very comfortable, spacious (even with 9 adults and 6 toddlers/ infants!) and has all the amenities. The kids loved feeding the animals and Rosie the horse was the standout favourite. Polen was very obliging and nothing was too much trouble - and always responded to our queries promptly. Would definitely recommend this property.
