We stayed in the Teachers Yurt in April. An interesting place with a lot of character, and you can really see how much love and effort the original owner poured into creating it over the years. It feels like it would have been an amazing setup for scout groups, school camps and families back in its heyday, with a very “back to basics”, nature-focused feel.
Sadly, it seems maintenance has become difficult and the property now feels quite tired and somewhat neglected. We stayed in the Teachers Yurt, which was very dusty and dirty with lots of cobwebs. The mattresses were quite worn with large holes and not very comfortable, and the solar lights in our yurt weren’t working during our stay.
We visited with our children aged 3 and 5 and had hoped for a bit more interaction with the farm, but unfortunately the farm tours are no longer running. That said, the kids still enjoyed seeing the animals, and we really loved being surrounded by nature and spotting kangaroos around the property.
There were also some issues with the shared toilet facilities during our stay, with one toilet flooded and out of order.
I think this place still has charm underneath it all, but at the moment I’d probably recommend camping with your own tent or trailer rather than staying in the yurts.
