A Great Time on KI

Great place to stay as a couple of couples - plenty of room; great location, and very well set up property.Peaceful and out of town - but close to Kingscote.Feeding the animals and meeting Mick's menagerie was an added bonus and was most enjoyable.We had a great time exploring the island and eating and drinking too much.A very pleasant and relaxing experience.Would highly recommend staying at Al Pac Em Inn.

Great place to stay....home from home with the added attraction of all the animals

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.

Great family holiday accommodation

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!

Mick & Mandy's El-Pac-Em-Inn farmstay is a must stay.

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.

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.

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 :)

Perfect Holiday

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!๐Ÿ™

Beautiful

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.
