What our guests have to say
This place is a hidden gem, not far off the highway in a beautiful valley. Our hosts took us on a tour of the farm and feeding the cows was... read more an absolute highlight. Our hosts also set up fire pits each night so we could enjoy the stars.
It's a spacious and comfortable property with everything you need. Having a washer and dryer there was great and we stayed warm with the aircon. The closest supermarket is 30 minutes away so shop on your way in to save time.
It was lush and green from the recent rain but also muddy underfoot. We were warned to bring gum boots but some were also provided for guests. We would definitely stay again!

Pro tip: if you enjoy cooking, order their meat for complete farm to table experience.

Lesley was so welcoming and accommodating, with a freshly poured jar... read more of honey from the farm on arrival. Gary set up the fire pit for us each evening and generously showed us around the property visiting the cows and the bee farm, we learnt so much! We were given free access to wander around the property and our little ones picked lemons. Definitely recommend gumboots as the ground is a bit soft from wet weather. Highly recommend, we would definitely revisit in future. Thank you Lesley and Gary

Just one suggestion that if the aircon was on one hour before arrival then would have been more comfortable.

The property is beautiful and very well looked... read more after, lots of space for the kids to run around. We loved our meals under the amazing big tree and stargazing by the firepit.
Lesley and Gary are fantastic hosts, always available, providing recommendations on what to do. Gary set up the firepit for us every night.
The region is beautiful with lots to do, beaches, waterfalls, fruit picking or wandering on the farm.
We had a wonderful time, thank you Lesley and Gary!

Lesley and... read more Gary (and their adult kids) are the perfect hosts. They live right next door and provided us with the ultimate farm experience: walking through the cow fields, picking fruit and herbs and even build us a fire at night under the stars. Gary also drove us to his other farm to see some impressive wagyu bulls.
Another bonus: they let us charge our Tesla!
It’s only a short drive from Port Mac but feels very rural and remote. We really needed a getaway and got exactly that. Thank you Lesley and Gary!

Such a great place to relax and for the boys to run around, play cricket and enjoy the countryside. Would definitely recommend to anyone and hope to visit again!

Waking up to the sound of moo's and the wild life around and ability to roam free around the farm was a great getaway for us from all the craziness happening in the world now. Lesley and Gary are great hosts and very courteous. We are greatly appreciative of the time we had in their wonderful farm and had a good relaxing holiday. Highly recommend the place and we will definitely stay again.
Thanks to Lesley for hosting us!
