Thanks for the host's kindness and caring. We were so much enjoyed in the place also we feel very safe in there for mum and young daughter.
The place is very peaceful and quite.
The lambs and sheep's are so cute.
The dog is so kind and supportive.
We are going to back there one day definitely.

Great spot! We planned to stay 2 nights and ended up staying 5. Craig is a great host and has a lot of fun activities for the kids. This is a great base to train into Melbourne for day trips, or before loading onto the Spirit of Tas ferry.
The main road entrance comes up quick and we missed it and drove to the very close next turn/road. After calling Craig he was out the front with dog Zippy to welcome us in. You enter past Craigs house, (he has a few projects that he was happy to share with us-he is a bit of creator/builder-handy person) into a large paddock with a retro old shed that you can shelter in if you need.
We are in a self contained van however we were able to access electricity to charge our devices. Craig is friendly and left us to it. A few friendly sheep meander around. As it was the end of summer, it was pretty dry looking/bit uninspiring with no trees, but had a nice sunrise across the grasses. There is some noise from the main road and from an industrial area, about 2km away.

Awesome help when we needed it and a great spot to do a bit of the Great Ocean Road just in the car.

Really convenient place and the host is a great guy who is really welcoming. The van is safe for day trips around the area or just going into Geelong. It’s also only 10mins from the Tassie ferry
Excellent coms - didn’t end up staying due to car troubles but very understanding and helpful.

Was difficult to find entrance given the busy road. They need a better sign. Craig the host was very nice though - once we found the gate .

We stopped over the night before setting off on the Spirit of Tasmania. Good stop over nice and close for the morning day sailing.
Thank you.
I stayed at Hobby Horse Farm for my first ever camper van adventure (self contained van) and it was so much fun! Craig was so helpful for the little things that I was new to, like how to hook up my power (power is available but you need your own toilet/shower/water). He even had a few DVDs I could borrow and a fire pit (it rained or else I would have used it more). I felt very safe and it was so much fun to see the horses and the sheep. I would definitely return!

Great spot to stop for an overnighter on the way to The Spirit of Tasmania. Firepit and wood available. Nice and quiet at night Craig was friendly and easy going. Plenty of room.
We had a lovely stay on our way to Melbourne. The location was perfect for us.
There was drinking water, electric, a sitting area with a tv.. it was really well equipped
