Great stay at a farm/vineyard

Family hailing From Singapore. We were looking for a place to be away from the city. Ken's cottage ticks all the boxes. The house is fronted by a very well tended garden. It had all the amenities we needed. Provisions for breakfast were much welcome. We got eggs from the chook house as well. Ken was kind enough to give us a tour of the vineyard and explain to my kids on what he does. It is a nice experiencing for the kids to be able to interact with a vintner. At night, the skies were clear and we pulled out the deck chairs to stargaze, we were able to spot a few shooting stars too. Thanks Ken!

Lovely peaceful farmstay

Ken & Kaye's property is a wonderful stay for the family. Our toddler loved feeding the sheep, goats & alpaca's, and the setting of a night in front of the fireplace was lovely. We'll certainly book again.

Perfect peaceful getaway

Great hosts Ken and Kaye made sure that we had everything we needed to make sure our stay was comfortable. Cottage was perfect for the family of 7 and plenty of open spaces for the younger ones to run around and explore. Cold nights around the fire and playing board games really ensured quality family time was had by all. Thanks again and we will be back in the warmer months! Highly recommend!

Wonderful experience for the family

So many wonderful things to keep the kids occupied - collecting eggs, feeding the alpacas, goats and sheep, helping Ken and Kaye to bring in the sheep, touring the property including creek and vineyard, picking snowpeas and celery from the garden and playing the selection of fun outdoor games. Close enough to town to enjoy the Science Discovery Centre and Bendigo pottery. Great gelato and fish & chips by the lake! Highly recommended! Thanks for a wonderful weekend. The kids didn’t want to leave!
