La Piniata was a big hit with my family. Thank you Tara. We invited our daughters their partners and the four grandchildren for a long weekend away. Arrived the Friday night went to the Bathurst Show Saturday , spent Sunday at La Pinata , before heading back to Sydney on Monday.
All ten of us enjoyed our stay. The property is spacious , with plenty of room for everyone. The kitchen and dining area gives you enough room so you don't fall over each other. The kids (2 X 13yr & 2x 10yr) loved the animals - goats , camels etc. The west facing deck was a great spot to watch the sunset with a cocktail. Or take a five minute drive to the Gladstone Hotel and watch the football with a couple of beers , as I did with my son in-laws.
In all I would recommend La Pinata for a great extended family break .
Wonderful, remote location. The house was large for us (three families). Beautiful surrounding, lots of animals to see and pet (camels, lamas, alpacas, donkeys, ostriches, horses, goats, deers, highland cows).
Rosa is a very lovely person. Her communication was wonderful before our arrival and we were welcomed with lots of yummy treats. The barn is in a lovely position - the view and animals are great and it was very peaceful. Once we had the fire going the house was warm, and we really appreciated John helping us one evening to use the pizza oven.
We spend NYE at Rosa's property and it was absolutely awesome! Beautiful views, lotsof space around the property.. and the house itself is very spacious and comfortable. Rosa is a terrific host. Highly recommend!
Rosa is very kind and thoughtful! She gave Christmas presents to our kids! She also gave us Italian coffee every day. It was good!
Staying at La Piñata is wonderful! It’s perfect getaway when you’re looking for a peaceful place away from the busy life at city. The barn is massive and it was absolutely perfect when we had our party!
Thanks Rosa!
Sure! Here’s a simple and heartfelt review you can leave in English:
I had an amazing trip, thanks to the wonderful hospitality of the host. They were so kind and welcoming, which made my stay truly enjoyable. I’m so grateful for their care and attention—it made my trip unforgettable!
Rosa and John’s place is Amazing, it has all the comforts you can ask for, combined with an amazing landscape. From all the animals to all of the areas to discover your time here is relaxing and as busy as you want it to be.
We had a fantastic family weekend/getaway at La Pinata. Rosa and John are such lovely hosts who make you feel very welcome and can't do enough to ensure that your stay is enjoyable and fun. From the pizza oven to the open fire and great places to walk over the property, we felt at home and comfortable. This is a great place for a big family, a few small families, or a bunch of friends, to re-energise and enjoy the country hills and fresh air.
La Pinata was a massive property way off the grid and the most relaxing place to take a break from City life. Rosa and John pampered us completely including fresh Italian coffee every morning! The Pizza oven was a massive hit with the three teens that we had with us and we didn't turn the TV on once! 100% recommended.
The place was absolutely beautiful. Anna was so helpful and we had everything we needed. It was such a gorgeous stay and we really enjoyed our time there.
La Pinata is the most amazing place. The home is spectacular! Fully equipped with everything you could need, everything has been very well thought out. The property is breathtaking, the views, the serenity is just fabulous. Rosa is the most thoughtful, caring and helpful lady I have met, she was always available for any questions we had pre booking until arriving at the property. We had the privilege to meet her and it felt like had known her for years. The on site caretaker Ana is also fabulous, she was always available with anything we needed, she took our children to feed the animals, another amazing person.
Overall our stay at La Pinata was fantastic. We would visit again in a heartbeat 💓
It was beyond what we expected! My group and I absolutely loved the beautiful cabin. The sunset in the horizon is beautiful. A fireplace kept us warm during the cold and how can you go wrong with a clear sky at night for stargazing?
Highly recommend staying at Rosas for the perfect retreat
This would have to be the most lovely holiday I have had in a very very long time. The barn was absolutely beautiful and Rosa, the host was wonderful. If you are looking for somewhere to bring together several groups of friends... this is it. It can accommodate 14 people with ease and the facilities are rustically wonderful. The property was amazing and we will definitely be going back again. Rosa also kept us up to date with what was happening in the area and at her recommendation, a wonderful afternoon was spent tasting wines at Vale Creek winery which was just down the road.
We spent the holiday at La Pinata farm with close friends since all of us can't be with our family overseas this Christmas. We are so lucky to have Rosa and her family open their home to us! During the whole stay they made us feel welcome and made sure we are comfortable and even decorated the whole place to bring the feel of Christmas for our kid. This warm welcome even came with welcome baskets, a sweet santa gift for our little one, and freshly laid eggs from their farm.
The place is so serene. We enjoyed the early morning walk seeing kangaroos, llmas and horses. They also have peacocks, geese and our first time to see white deers!
The house has a rustic feel and each corner is simply amazing with furniture from repurposed pieces of wood.
La Pinata stay is a needed break we all need from all the chaos happening right now. No wonder they are awarded one of the best hipcamp stay this year.
We had a fantastic stay at La Pinata and will definitely be back! The Barn is perfectly set up for large groups and Rosa was a fantastic host.
There were no issues with electricity or water for showers which is always a plus :)
Wow!!! What can I say. We were a group of five adults. La Pinata and Rosa are brilliant. Rosa is the hostess with the mostess. Thought of everything for our comfort and extras for my husbands birthday. It was a really cold weekend but with the huge fireplace inside we were as warm as toast. We loved every bit of La Pinata and feel we have made a lifetime friend in Rosa. Quirky, eclectic recycled charming the barn was great.
We spent an amazing weekend at the La Pinata and cannot wait to come back. The hostess accommodated all of our requests and made sure that we were able to enjoy the property! About the property, the place is stunning and the house has a a lot of character. We went for a hike and explored the farm (there is quite a lot to see), they also have some cute animals as llamas, white deers and geese. I highly recommend this property!!
La Pinata Glamping Barn is located on a large acreage farm and we were charmed as soon as we arrived at its doorsteps. The farm has a fairytale entry and our stay was just magical. We stayed at farms before but we never came across a farm that has white deers and peacocks! Absolutely enchanting!
The barn looks even better than the pictures. It's rustic, homey and built by the owners predominantly from recycled material. The lounge room has a cozy fireplace which was incredibly soothing with its crackling sound when we had the fire going at nighttime.
There were plenty of bedrooms to go around, the rooms we stayed in all had a gas heater to keep us warm. Once you warm up the room, with it off kept us cozy all night long.
The host is just out of this world, we received a warm welcome, they left us delicious farm eggs and the biggest welcome basket we've ever seen. At the same time gave us plenty of privacy but help when we needed it. The children had so much fun we couldn't get them to leave.
Without a doubt, this is our best farm stay experience!
Hidden gem. We had an absolutely incredible stay at La Pinata Glamping Barn. The views are stunning, surroundings are tranquil, the house is spacious, comfortable and well equipped and Rosa and Battista were wonderful and welcoming hosts.
We spent mornings relaxing at the deck overlooking rolling hills and enjoyed evenings by the cosy fireplace. There's a pizza oven which we used with a little help to start it and some friendly tips on how to make the best homemade pizza.
The land around the house is huge and it was perfect for a solid afternoon hike around the property. Beautiful nature, animals and piece and quiet. I don't remember when was the last time I experienced this kind of silence.
Our stay was very relaxing, incredibly comfortable and we will definitely be back at La Pinata! Highly recommended.
Just amazing, we stayed here with our 8 kids for two nights and they all loved it. The hosts were amazing and Rosa went above and beyond making sure before we even arrived that we were had everything we needed. Anna the caretaker was very friendly and helpful over the course of our stay and we felt very well looked after. The property is stunning and there are some relaxing walks with great views. The house is beautiful, cosy and super charming! A few luxury features we enjoyed were the hot showers, fully equipped kitchen with fridge/freezer and gas cooking. Our kids loved feeding the animals on the farm and spending time exploring and at the end of our stay they didn’t want to leave, asking “when are we coming back?”
We’d love to visit again and again.
