Awesome bush getaway
Beautiful spot only 15 mins from Victor Harbor. Just lovely waking up watching the sun creep up the gully and listening to the Kookaburras.
Even saw an Echidna!
Fire was so nice with ample wood provided.
Really lovely host with great communication, we’ll be back!

Very Clean but Tacky
The disinfectant hit you as you walked in!! Very clean and comfortable I counted at least 30 chairs!!!! but alas the pics on the site were very deceiving, it would be an ideal pad for couples wanting a BBQ/firepit/drinking weekend but for one who has lived in pristine bush it was lacking a lot of character. No top sheet on the bed so you were sleeping under a quilt that others have also been if i had known I would have brought some and no bin liners usually that is something that is provided and a sharp knife never goes astray, It wasn't horrible but I am not going to be raving about it to my friends, it was nice enough but from the pics we really expected a lot more, it aint back to nature when the kitchen window looks on to a road, but yes obsessively clean. (so odd no top sheets).

Calm and natural surroundings
Clean and spacious accommodation for a family of 5. Well maintained surroundings. Natural settings. Newly renovated main bathroom. Pictures in stayz are probably old and the property is much better than the pictures.

This place exceeded our expectations. It was beautifully clean and tidy when we arrived and allowed for a wonderfully relaxing get away. The setting is gorgeous and it feels just like a home away from home. 5* for sure!

Great for families
Very comfortable country house in a beautiful setting. Our kids loved feeding the chooks and Alana kindly arranged for them to meet Charlotte the horse. The fire kept us cosy and the kids toasted marshmallows over the firefit one night. Highly recommend for an authentic country getaway!

Wonderful, practical and very clean house located in a bush setting with wildlife and brilliant view
We will re book very soon. We had the best time, taking in the bush setting with great views and all sorts of wildlife everywhere! Alana was delightful who made us most welcomed and left us some fresh apples, Easter and fresh eggs to eat. The house was very practical and clean with wonderful views, fire pit, decking front and back. A fine gem which our family and dog really enjoyed. Thanks again Alana.

A lovely farm stay
We had a lovely time walking around the property - Alana was fabulous with our kids, allowing them to care for the horses and chickens. We loved how the area was proximal to both Encounter Bay and then also Second Valley/Deep creek etc - the best of all worlds - oh and the cafe down the road - Belicious - was fabulous, def need to stop in there!

I took my two young children and they loved seeing the animals, exploring the area/nature, toasting marshmallows at the fire pit and being cozy inside by the fire at night. Lovely, friendly and warm owners who assisted us whenever we needed. Thank you.
