Wish we had stayed longer as we had a lovely time and a much needed reset. The kids just loved all the animals. Was such a delight having the ponies right out the front to watch and pat and the walk to the creek is a must. We loved seeing the horses and donkeys the next morning down there too. Corinna was so welcoming showing us around. Would highly recommend if you want a lovely escape in nature.

I really liked staying here. Such a special place. The horses/ miniature horses/ donkeys were so cute. There was one donkey which was very close to foaling- I even dreamt about it during the night of my stay. I’d highly recommend starting here if you are looking for a true get away!

This was such a cute and cozy place to stay. Had everything we needed, for 2 of us and 2 littlies. The animals were the friendliest I have ever met! Getting to meet them was so special. The area is such a nice place to walk, go for a bike ride or drive with windows down!
The more cuddles, the better!
