Stunning, 100 acres where Highland Cows and hand-raised animals roam free amongst all the abundant native wildlife. Immerse yourself in a beautiful natural environment and lovely friendly animals for a unique experience of being involved in helping Ian and Wally look after all the lucky rescue animals at Eventide. All hosted by the down to earth, local owner Ian and his loyal dog, Wally. You are welcome to help feed the baby calves their morning milk, collect the eggs and tidy the chicken coops or just relax and watch all the lucky animals live their best lives on Eventide Sanctuary! 🤠🐮🐑🐄😊

Choice of amazing areas to camp!
Such a cool spot! Ian is so lovely and helpful and takes amazing care of his animals, who are super friendly and absolutely beautiful. Beautiful views of the property and amazing sunrise and sunsets! Awesome spot for kids to have some up close and personal encounters with animals and help Ian out if you want to! Wally the dog get an extra five stars from us ❤️

Camping on the farm!
Everything about Eventide Sanctuary is amazing! Ian (who runs the whole farm) puts so much love, care and work into all the rescue animals. It’s clear that the animals love where they are! Ian let us choose whereabouts we wanted to set up camp, it was on a slight downhill, which didn’t affect us. All the animals have free range across the whole property. Ian let us know where abouts the highland cattle were and they were spectacular. I would definitely recommend staying here. So much fun and so much to explore. Definitely will be back. Thank you so much for having us!

Brilliant family getaway
Beautiful place, my kids loved the animals and got outside and off their devices to meet the alpacas and find the highland cows, and to help Ian and Wally with the bobby calves. Ian was a great host and went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed. We live nearby and will make this a regular getaway. Plenty of room for our caravan, but 4x4 recommended for best sites with caravan. We really appreciate what Ian is doing not just for the animals, but for rural communities. He's not trying to tug at your heartstrings, but to do right by the animals.

Amazing Farm Experience 😊
Awesome night away surrounded by nature and friendly farm animals and waking up to a glorious sunrise and alpacas and goats greeting us at the tent 😊 be as hands on as you like with the farm animals or farm jobs as Ian and his dog Wally need lots of help and the animal stories he tells will have you in stitches! We will be back ☀️

Eventide Farm is such a gem, hidden in our own backyard. Ian let the kids help feed the animals. The calves were so so sweet. Many laughs were had, marshmallows were deliciously burnt and the sunrise this morning will not be forgotten soon. We'll be back!

Exceptional Experience!
What an incredible experience! There is nothing quite like Eventide- the property is gorgeous, but the animals are the stars that’s for sure! Ian is an amazing host- attentive, kind, fascinating and a genuinely good bloke. We will be back- many, many more times I am sure!
