Peaceful country getaway
A quaint little cottage on a farm. Very well maintained, clean, cozy and comfortable, with every amenity. We had a very peaceful and relaxing weekend, enjoyed the scenery from the outdoor setting, and were greeted by very friendly pup regularly. The setting is beautiful, and we were well looked after!

Loved it
Two nights of absolute bliss. The property is beautiful, my children loved running around looking at the animals. I found the stay to be very peaceful. The highlights were getting to meet the chickens, feed the alpacas and pick fruit from the trees. Thank you for a wonderful stay, we look forward to returning in the future. :)

Sheep & Butterflies, note photos
Entry is a short walk of perhaps 50m across lawn. Sheep & alpacas file past the fences a little distance from the cabin, close enough to be entertaining but not close enough to be disturbing. Three varieties of butterflies when I was there, tall trees are close to but not overhanging the cabin and outside deck. The small inside table has rounded bolts on the top, so anything A4 size or larger can't be laid flat. Plenty of room on the outside table on the deck though if you need to spread out, otherwise sit on the large rug in the lounge. Kitchenette is designed for cuppas and re-heating meals.

A Delightful Stay with a Pleasant Surprise
This was our best stay in Geelong so far. The host was very friendly and welcoming. We even had a lovely surprise by getting in close contact with the alpacas and the sheep. The kids definitely loved their experience and they asked when we could come back here next time. The house itself with its furnishings and everything was well supplied for the purpose of our stay. Every little touch within the house was well thought of. All in all, we highly recommend this home. It's a definitely 'nah-worry' stay for our family. :)

Wonderful experience
It was such a lovely place. Clare was such a nice host. My 4 year old loved playing with the lambs and feeding the alpacas - will definitely visit again during summer. Amazing experience and just the kind of weekend getaway we were looking for.
