Lovely farm, friendly hosts, clean & well appointed cabins. An enjoyable 4 night stay. The kids loved the animal feeding every morning and roaming the property.

Perfect place for two boys and a dog. My boys loved seeing the animals around the cottage. There was plenty for them to do, such as canoeing and having a go at fishing or maronning. Location very central. We found Mark and Kerriann very helpful if we needed them, but felt perfectly alone when we wanted. Our boys had a wonderful time and so did the dog. Thankyou.

The most amazing farm stay we had at the start of the week, from the cabin being so clean and efficient with everything you need, to the farm being so beautiful, our girls enjoyed every second. Our 3 year old can't stop talking about all the animals especially the cheeky baby goats that she was playing with in the afternoons. She loved her birthday on the farm. We can't wait to head back when our littlest is older. Also bought the most amazing peacock feathers everyone is loving! Highly recommend for young families.
Thankyou mark and Kerriann!
Thankyou mark and Kerriann!

Thank you Mark and Kerriann for welcoming us (and our dog) and making our stay relaxing and stress-free. The farm stay is tranquil and the animal feeding is great (at our last stay). The accommodation is as always neat and comfortable. Would highly recommend to anyone.
