A Little more about The Eco Olive Farmstay

Stay in the same area, which was hand picked by Hannibal Macarthur, as prime grazing land back in the 1800's. Local farms in the area still carry large numbers of sheep and cattle.

Stay in a self contained 3 bedroom fully furnished house, with living/dining room, slow combustion stove, kitchen, 2 bathrooms, laundry. All bedding supplied, kitchen fully equiped. BYO food and drink.

Sit around the bon fire on a crisp night, domed by millions of stars. The sunsets are pretty, the night air coool for a great sleep.

In the cooler months, enjoy a billy tea by the fire or use the spit roast facility or cook up some scones or damper in the bush oven.

Picnic in the olive grove, under the shade of the gum trees, overlooking the entire property.

Walk down to the chicken coop and choose your eggs for a yummy breakfast. You are welcome to use our eggs for your breakfast. Taste the difference!

Our animals are friendly kids will have a great time feeding them and petting them.

Indulge in sunset drinks on the hillside olive grove overlooking the entire property.

  • "Dear Frank & Monica Thank you for a lovely relaxing New Years. The kids had a wonderful time feeding the animals and swimming in the pool. The kids now want us to sell our home and buy a farm, or put some animals in the park behind our home! We will see you again soon. Eli & Fiona"

  • "Fantastic stay, Accomodation was comfortable & cosy. The kids loved the animals with the collection of fresh eggs a real treat. It was great to mountain bike ride around the area and to listen to the silence."Great weekend" Thanks again. "

  • "I highly recommend Eco Olive Farmstay. The hosts Frank and Monica have thought of every detail to make this an exceptional farmstay. Our group of 9 were comfortably accomodated in the cottage which is sparkling clean and very cosy. There is plenty for the whole family to do, and I felt relaxed from the moment we arrived. We would love to visit again. "

  • "Fantastic family break. Peaceful setting, warm, cosy accomodation and friendy and gracious host. The kids loved feeding the animals and getting involved in farm life. We were lucky enough to meet the newest addition to the property, a super-cute Dorper lamb, born that morning! Frank gave us a fantastic view of the heavens with his refracting telescope, which was both informative and interesting. Games room, country lanes, Olive groves, fresh eggs, friendly animals (especially Jenna and Taurus), the list is extensive. Thoroughly recommended. We'll be back!"

  • "What a relaxing experience!All the family had such a lovely time playing farmers,collecting eggs, pulling up veges and the unforgetable experience of clipping the alpacas toe nails.The accomodation was comfortable and cosy with the candles and fire burning to greet.Our hosts Monica and Frank were so friendly and welcoming.We will definitely go again."

  • "Frank, Monica and the boys were perfect hosts. The accommodation was clean, well taken care of and respectful of the environment. It was truly a home away from home. We were only there for 3 days, but it felt like 7 - we relaxed from day 1. It was nice to know that we could do our own thing, but if needed something or wanted company, Frank & Monica were there to take us on a tractor ride, have a chat over a cuppa, sit around the fire talking and eating scones. The kids had a great time feeding the animals. We had 4 adults and 5 kids under 7 and we felt perfectly safe having the kids walk around the farm exploring all the wonderful things a farm offers. They loved seeing kangaroos in the early morning and going down to the chicken pen to get some fresh eggs for breakfast...and at night it was nice to go inside to a roaring warm fire. Thanks Frank and Monica for a fantastic weekend. We can't wait to come back. Nichol June 2009"

  • "Most enjoyable. The hosts Monica, Frank, boys and Jenna the dog were friendly, accomodating and helpful; the accommodation is fresh, homely, comfortable and clean and suited our large family reunion as much as it'd suit a small group. Plenty of activities to be had, space and places to explore, or just chill on the verandah and take in the view. We're likely to head back with our kids and take some friends with us; whether for a week or just a weekend. "
    Al, June 2009
     
  • "A wonderful relaxing country retreat, with plenty for the kids to do! It was immaculately clean and catered comfortably for 5 adults and 4 children. Monica and Frank were super, and the billy tea and scones were a winner! We were left to our own privacy, when necessary, but of course were happy to join in at animal feeding time to the excited squeals of the kids. Definitely a place to return to for some R&R where the kids can run and play safely and we could walk and talk....! "

  • ""Top notch accommodation. Great hosts and everything has been thought of. Relaxed with the hosts around a campfire and made to feel very comfortable, hosts also respectful of our privacy and space. Frank took us 4WDing and helped out when our dog needed a trip to the local vet. Lots to do, our daughters loved her time there and so did we. Highly recommended." "
