John was a great host, directions were clear.
The area we were camped in was large and secure for the dogs to run around in.
There was a little bit of traffic noise early in the night but it didn't really bother us.
Close to town and not too far from Ballarat.

Beautiful spot to camp
A beautiful area to camp, we had a fenced paddock to ourselves so the dogs could happily run amok. John was a great host, provided hoses for water access, bins, and information about the local area. We had a great time!

The Serenity
Such a beautiful place, really lucky that John shares his property. Very peaceful and quiet, lots of native animals and local animals to keep you entertained.
John was amazing, very helpful and has a great affinity and knowledge of his area. He was a pleasure to speak to and deal with.

Great stay would recommend
John was a great host, very friendly and informative about the history of the area. He gave us a tour of the farm. The paddock we stayed in was easily accessible and self enclosed the dogs, my husband and I loved our stay. Thank you John

After a very last minute emergency booking, John promptly contacted us and saved us from being stuck without accomodation. He was very welcoming and did everything to ensure we had a most comfortable stay. As for the farm itself, it's beautiful and very picturesque. He has a lot of farm animals, such as sheep, goats and alpacas, that you can go up and pet. There is also an abundaunt amount of wildlife. We saw kangaroos, millions of rabbits and big red fox (to farmers dismay). Plenty of beautiful birds flying about, and gathering in the ponds. With zero light pollution the farm is also a star gazers delight. The farm also has plenty of space, with gated areas that pet dogs can use to run about safely offleash to explore.
Will be returning in the near future.
Thank you for the warm welcome John

We had a lovely stay at John's place, secure yard for the dogs to run off lead for some of the time. Close to Buangor and Mt Cole for drives and entertainment. John was very helpful, provided some local knowledge of the area, and offered up use of his metal detector for the kids to see what they could find. Had the place to ourselves which was lovely. A bit tight getting round the house and through the gates.
