5 Star stay, we wanted for nothing the whole stay. Home is well appointed, clean and comfortable. Centrally located for tourist day trips. Perfect for families with children, farm animals were friendly and daily fresh eggs was a bonus, thanks for the great memories and chats with Mick and Mandy. Wayne, Karen, Stephen and Lori.

Fantastic family accommodation. Our teens loved the space and privacy, but it would also be perfect for younger families. The house was spotless and had everything we could possibly need. The animals were lovely to wake up to every morning. Highly recommend!

Lovely big house with all amenities required to enjoy a nice relaxing stay. Ideal for families with children. I loved the outside covered decking area with BBQ for leisurely breakfasts or a glass of wine in the evening.

Very comfortable and Spacious
A great location, very neat and tidy. Perfect for our extended family holiday with the in-laws. Was wonderful to be able to go outside and pat and feed the horses and cows. Definitely recommend it. Only small hiccups the property address on the listing was completely wrong so had to call to get the correct address after searching for a while and most of the DVDS didn't work having been scratched so much by use, all easily remedied :)

Everything was perfect. Thank you so much Mick and Mandy for having us stay at your awesome farm stay. We all loved feeding the horses and collecting the eggs (from the 3 year old to the 73 year old!!!). House, bedding, bathrooms, kitchen were all awesome. Will definately be back to stay again :)

Mick and Mandy have provided the most unbelievable property and farm stay experience!
Cannot rave highly enough about this property/farm stay! The experiences for the children are unforgettable (and us adults alike!). Feeding the horses, the cows, the chickens, collecting eggs, the gardens, the space, the fresh air, the lovey, cosy and spacious home, the close proximity to Kingscote but still far enough away.... absolutely wholesome living! Cannot thank Mandy & Mick enough for providing such a very reasonably priced sancturary come haven, come home away from home - that our whole family didn't want to leave! We will definitely be back and will tell all and sundry about this lil gem!🙏

My mother had to take my kids in my place as I had to work in the end. The video and photos of the place and tour I received by video phone call looked amazing and worth more than what was paid. My kids haven't stopped raving about the farm. I'm looking forward to taking my kids myself next year at some stage.

Perfect position. Beautifully kept expansive gardens. The house is lovely, welcoming, spotlessly clean and has everything you need. Mick and Mandy are great hosts. Both adults and kids will love the animals....oh, and Bruce the Clydesdale is magnificent.

Great for the kids!
We have just spent a week at this property and have had a great stay. Mick and Mandy were friendly and helpful hosts. The kids loved feeding the animals from the buckets Mick arranged on a daily basis. The house itself is comfortable with the four bedrooms on each corner of the house. Ample seating for dining and lounging and appreciated all the extra blankets for beds and couch! The kitchen is pretty basic but does what you need (just not really anywhere to store groceries and limited bench space). Good amount of crockery, cutlery and cooking items. Fresh eggs from the chooks were available for use, but you’ll need to bring your own oil and other cooking basics. Overall, we had a really wonderful stay and would definitely recommend this property to others!
