What Our Happy Customers Are Saying

Sarah F

The site had lovely views over the paddock and was private, shady and sheltered from the wind. It was about a 5-7min walk across to the daily animal feeding activities, but the donkeys, alpacas, camels and emus also came to see us at our site 🙂

The perfect place for a weekend get away or a longer stay, away from the hustle and bustle of the city and only a 8 minutes from the quaint town of Toodjay.

The family relished a peaceful retreat in our caravan. Each morning, the children eagerly awoke to the delightful sight of farm animals outside their window. Our hosts consistently exuded warmth and hospitality. I highly recommend a visit for young families seeking a serene getaway amidst the charming company of farm animals.
