3 nights at Jali Farmstay

What a beautiful property, beautifully maintained, clean, tidy, very friendly hosts, the donga was very nice and the big verandah was very handy as we had other family members with small children camping with us, this made meal time outside very nice. I would recommend this property to anyone. The fishing was good too.

Clean cabin, very convenient, way better than a hotel room for an overnight stay.

Weekend Trip to Glamping Balgarr Cabin Retreat

We loved Barbara’s peaceful cabin nestled in nature, surrounded by abundant birdlife and designed with sustainability in mind. Just remember to bring a few blankets — the temperature drops quickly once the sun goes down!

6 nights at Riverside Privacy - 200 acres 4 you

We absolutely loved our stay at the treehouse. Sophie was an amazing host and went out of her way to make our stay enjoyable. The accommodation was immaculate and beautifully appointed. We normally camp so it was wonderful to be totally “off-grid” but with the luxury of electricity, hot showers, a flushing toilet, comfy furniture to relax in, and even Starlink - what a rare find! We did almost everything on Sophie’s suggested activities - 4WD’ing, swimming & kayaking along the pristine river, the breathtaking drive out to Ellenborough falls, and we even had a bonfire. The kids loved the flying fox and all the friendly animals - they loved the al pacas, played with the dogs, patted the cows, fed the horses and chooks and collected delicious fresh eggs every morning. The full farmstay experience. We can’t wait to come back again - thanks Sophie!

Weekend Trip to Mountain Top Cabin

I went on a trip to Sharon’s beautiful home and was very pleased, unfortunately we had to cut our trip short due to severe weather and needing to return home. The location is perfect for a hiker or nature lover just a few mins from Elands town. It was a beautiful little cabin nestled in nature. Sharon was friendly, flexible and very attentive to any questions or queries. Admittedly we took a wrong turn on the way there and after contacting her for best way to get back on track she was waiting at the front to welcome us. With a scenic cabin and amazing host would definitely recommend

Weekend Trip to The Top Place

I loved staying at Meredith’s land, it was beautiful and peaceful. The cottage was cute and had a few camping spots scattered around. The spot was close to a lot of the local towns, restaurants, beaches and national parks, very spoilt for choice. Meredith was very knowledgeable of the local area and provided some great recommendations.
