    Continental breakfast provided had many choices. Our accomodation was comfortable, lovely decor with all our needs met. Always something to do during the day, exploring the farm or a short drive to town for supplies or more adventures.

    Just general comments...... Kitchen prep, fridge, outside cooking all spread about in different locations. A bit unusual. Did not care for camera on spa area. Privacy ? Some kind of curtain on back door also for privacy purposes.

    Simple easy breakfast. Loved all the decor, very homely. Bed very comfortable. Loved the walk about the property and across the paddocks meeting all the animals. Hostess very obliging and friendly.

    V.Great genuine Farm Stay. If farm animals is not you; find a demure B&B instead.

    Nothing, completely meet our expectations. Visitors must have realistic expectations of a real Farm Stay experience with animal farm noises and experiences. It is a B&B on a real farm with lots of friendly and loveable pet animals.

    Exactly what we wanted from a real Farm Stay - many varieties of animals on v.large property. Animals raised to 'pet' style standards. Lots of Australian bush and lots of animals including pet farm animals. Accommodation is really nice and comfortable. Loved the animals especially the pet Emus, Sheep and goats. Hot Tub/large Spa added to experience.

    We took our 3 1/2 yo granddaughter to experience an upclose and personal experience to a world of animals other than domesticated pets at home. At first she was hesitant to interact but with help and encouragement from hosts Jane & Marc's she blossomed and was helping in any way she could to feed, entertain and observe the animals. She loved it! There were outdoor and indoor games available as well as a spa to relax in. We will definitely come back and thoroughly recommend to anyone of any age.

    Varying floor levels between a couple of rooms could pose a trip hazard. Shower floor requires a larger non-slip bath mat to prevent slipping.

    Lovely old homestead with beautiful modern features. Great well considered food provisions, enjoyed crumpets after a long day of travel from interstate. Enjoyed interaction with hosts, friendly dogs and access visiting farm animals. Beautiful countryside, lovely extensive views of Avon valley from atop of nearby hill.

    Provision of small combined compact oven/air fryer would help with meals. Microwave, toaster, grill and outdoor BBQ (not outdoor weather at time) only.

    The animals. The view of the countryside. The farm. The friendly emu's and the young goats. The pet dogs. The aviaries. The host's ability to help children interact with animals. Genuine farm stay in traditional but modernised accommodation.

    No faults - perfect in our opinion

    The location was perfect…… only an hour from our house in Guildford. Farm is only about 10 mins from the town centre. Hosts were friendly, helpful, hospitable and couldn’t fault them at all! Animals included emus, alpacas, lambs, donkeys, bunnies and a plethora of birds including geese, peacocks, turkeys, chickens, roosters. The accommodation was perfect. A beautiful homely feel complete with heaters (we stayed in winter). The view from the accommodation looks out to animals - it’s beautiful All the animals are super dooper friendly - our 3 year old was in heaven.

    The property is located away from shops etc but it did not matter because the place has plenty of things to explore and experience! The guest house has 2 bedrooms, living/kitchen area and specious bathroom. We loved how the house was presented. We fed rabbits, alpacas, lambs and donkeys, and wondered around the trail at this massive property. Kids got along well with dogs especially Harry. The kitchen was filled with necessary items (bread, spreads, cereals, milk, snacks, tea/coffee etc). Roasting marshmallows over the fire outside was fun, but we enjoyed every bit of our stay. Thank you Jane and Marc for the perfect stay!!

    Just a heads up there is very minimal food prep/cooking facilities, so if you’re going with kids you just need to be a bit organised and bring things that only need a microwave. There was also a BBQ and a toaster, and plenty of nice ready made meals at the IGA in town.

    It was a gorgeous farmstay, very relaxing and comfortable, with very friendly hosts that did everything they could to make our stay lovely.
