It is with great sadness that due to circumstances beyond our control, at this stage, are forcing us to cease sharing our property by 27th November 2025.We have thoroughly enjoyed meeting and making friendships with visitors and invite you to still contact us and visit the farm and animals. Cheryl 0421 521 733This 20 acre working property is dedicated to our horses, dogs, birds and relaxing!You are welcome to wander into the big paddock to access the walking trails and continue on to explore the scrub area where many native birds come and go including kookaburras.The line of trees planted in the gully area are dedicated koala forage trees so also wander down there and have a look and see if you can spot one.Your relaxed property walk will take you past paddocked sheep (they may run up to you if they think you have something for them to eat. Cut apples or carrots into pieces for them ) Rams and Whethers are together in their own paddock, alpacas and Bobby are in with the Ewes and any lambs at the time protecting them from predators in another paddock.There are horses, Dallas the mule (please do not enter their paddocks) , wild ducks at the dam, as well as our ducks and geese if they are out of their enclosure that day. There are raceways between all paddocks to continue your walk all around the property. Beware of the electric fencing though, it hurts if you touch it!We also have some very friendly chooks and turkeys that LOVE to say hello and be hand fed chopped up pieces of apple, carrot, grapes and especially watermelon! Feel free to give them any food scraps you might have. We also have a family of magpies will enjoy any meat scraps you leave for them too.Dallas, our mule is always up for a bit of attention and any apples or carrots you might like to share with him.Dallas is rather special as his dad is a "mammoth donkey" who has been imported from America. His mum is a stunning thoroughbred. Mammoth donkeys are a bigger/taller breed of donkey than Australian donkeys are. They are beginning to be used up north on stations instead of horses as mules are sturdier, more sure footed, not as flighty as horses so safer for stock men and women to use working with cattle. They can live into their late 30,s so have a longer working life as well. Dallas was born in 2023Campsites 1, 2 and 3 are on the right hand side as you drive in via the automatic opening gate which you will be given access to once we have added your mobile number to the system after you have booked.

They used canoes to transport goods and move long distances along the river system. The Marne River in southeast South Australia starts below Eden Valley at an elevation of 366m and ends at an elevation of 5.06m flowing into the River Murray. The Marne River drops around 361m over its 69.5km length. https://www.acmi.net.au/works/111350--aboriginal-canoe-trees-of-the-murray/ History of Eden Valley The land of the Ngadjuri People, Traditional Owners of the Eden Valley region. South Australia’s beautiful Eden Valley, known as the garden of grapes and gums, is one of Australia’s premier cool climate wine regions characterised by its rugged beauty and varied topography. Eden Valley was named by the surveyors of the area after they found the word "Eden" carved into a tree. The beautiful rolling hills of the region create a natural diversity in mesoclimate determined by altitude, aspect and slope, which also naturally impacts the soil type. It is therefore critical to match the correct grape variety and site. Overall, the region is characterised by cooler conditions than its famous neighbour, the Barossa Valley, and as such the final stages of ripening and harvesting take place in cooler temperatures. Eden Valley wines are distinctive in their character, displaying wonderful aromatics, elegance, complexity and finesse. Eden Valley shares a proud German heritage with it's neighbour the Barossa Valley, collectively known as the Barossa region. English and German immigrants settled here in the early to mid-19th century, establishing the township in the 1860s. With a wine-making history dating back to 1847, Eden Valley is home to some of the world’s oldest Shiraz and Riesling vineyards. We are a family of 5 with 3 children who love to explore and learn about the history of the places we visit. So, we hope you enjoy this little snippet! CFS Fire Ban 2024 starts NOVEMBER 15th 2024 and ends APRIL 30th 2025 no campfires between these dates.

Great spot to camp, easy to find and nice choice of locations to pitch. Plenty of kangaroos to say hello, great for our small kids. Will be back. Thanks

Weekend Trip to Cockatoo Valley Tiny Vacations

Thanks so much for letting us stay at your beautiful place! We had such a lovely weekend short, but really special and relaxing. It was so peaceful waking up to the sheep wandering by in the mornings, and we absolutely adored the friendly little dog who came to play catch. Those small moments made our stay feel so warm and homely. Everything about the place was perfect clean, comfortable, and full of charm. We’re so grateful for the experience and would love to come back again one day!

3 nights at The Valley of Eden - Barossa

Great spot, nice and quiet out of the way but close to everything in the Barossa valley. And the cows are friendly.

1 night at Cockatoo Valley Tiny Vacations

Lovely area, so many visiting farm animals! We ended up staying at the site next to the dam, as recommended by the host due to the wind and being able to use a fire. There was a lovely fire pit, and table and chairs there for us to use. And plenty of kindling stacked up for us. The host was great with quick communication.

7 nights at Gateway to the Clare Valley

We loved camping at Clare Valley View. We camped up the top of the hill near the cattle yard. Most amazing sunsets! Close enough to Saddleworth and other towns, as well as Clare Valley wineries. Highly recommend this place

Lovely place to pitch the van, lots of space, easy access. If we stay abain, we'll pitch above the little house, abit more away from the road. Highly recommended for a great off grid stay!

Really liked this place, we had site 4, near the house, top of the hill looking over the valley. A bit of a slope but no issues at all, quiet, easy to get in and out, had a fire. Would definitely recommend

Despite a creative start levelling 2 vans on Site 4, we had a wonderful camp. The outlook is beautiful and the sunrise, well worth a photo for our ‘late sleepers’. Cheryl was terrific, very responsive and accommodating.

Loved sitting on the deck chilling with a coffee watching the sunrise. Great wood oven pizzas for dinner and a great place to spend time with family and friends unwinding enjoying a slower pace of life.

Great spot, a lot of effort has been made for an enjoyable stay. Wouldn't hesitate to stay again. A screen or trees between site 2 and 3 would be a great addition. Thanks again.

Weekend Trip to Jacob’s Creek Farm, Krondorf

This was really easy to find, not far from town but still quiet. We arrived in the dark and were able to set up without any problems. Our site had a spot to set up that was relatively flat with a great view of the green hills of the Barossa. We appreciated the set out fire pit and used this each night. We had 2 camper vans and utes and had plenty of room. We would definitely stay again.
