Lovely outlook
Great location to explore Adelaide Hills from. Beautiful outlook. Enjoyed watching the cows and looking after the chickens. Had a lovely fire pit outside one night. Kitchen well equipped. A bathroom for the studio would make it perfect for 3 couples.

Comfy country retreat
A delightful older property beautifully renovated and with all the requirements for a group of interstate walkers who needed a base to walk the Heysen Trail. Scott thoughtfully supplied fresh bread, butter, eggs and other goodies for our arrival and answered any queries promptly. Especially delightful were the chooks who were our constant companions whenever we were outside.

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
In 2004 Scott moved into a run down farm at Bridgewater in the Adelaide Hills. Over the past decade Scott & Mary have transformed the property into two picturesque, functioning farms.

Undertaking revegetation has attracted back native wildlife, while the pet cows and chickens play their part in creating composts that assist with our permaculture practices.

Scott & Mary have installed over 20 kilowatts of solar panels, 3 powerwall batteries, on-site wastewater treatment systems and numerous rainwater tanks to help irrigate the gardens and orchards, on our way to creating a sustainable property.

From our Private Farm Escapes, immerse yourself in all the goodness that the Adelaide Hills has to offer including scenic hikes, farm-direct produce and epicurean delights, or just hide away and reset in your private sanctuary.
