My daughters want horses now...

The property is VERY spacious and equipped with absolutely everything. The living areas were a little hot, but we were staying in the middle of a hot summer. My girls loved the horses, they were all renamed during our stay. My boy loved the kayaking on the dam.Beautiful view from the house, we were very comfortable.

The most magical weekend getaway

The property was absolutely perfect. The photos do not do the place justice. We were welcomed both mornings by the horses, and amazing views from the main bedroom. The owners and hosts were extremely welcoming, and offered support throughout the stay, however everything we needed was supplied in the property. I would definitely recommend to anyone thinking about booking here. There is so much to do in the area, and just as much to do at the property! Would highly recommend. Thank you for having us!!

Highly recommended - Hard to leave this haven of peacefulness and beautiful hinterland country

The home itself was large and accommodated our 5 adults and 3 children perfectly, with everybody easily having their own space. Kitchen and living area fantastic and super-functional. Absolutely everything provided... great bbq and also fire pit where we roasted marshmallows. The kids loved the fishing (especially one of them), the huge expanse they had to run around and the well equipped children's room for when they were having 'quiet time'. The countryside, horses, cattle and the gardens were fantastic and it was hard to leave. Will definitely return. Thank you !!
