Wonderful long weekend

We had a lovely Easter long weekend at Eco Olive Farmstay. The kids loved feeding the animals, building fires in the firepit, and even went for a swim despite the cold. The games room was also great for when the weather wasn't great. Highly recommended. Thank you Monica and Slav!

A wonderful farm stay with beautiful scenery and tranquil surroundings. Cosy, neat home with all necessary amenities. Host Monica provided thorough and accurate directions to the farm and did an excellent job of making usfeel at home. She is very thoughtful and accommodating. Kids were overjoyed at the chance to feed chooks, ducks cows and sheep and collecting eggs. Our group thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the farm stay.

A country home away from home

Surely one of the best holiday farmstay we've been, Monica and Slav are fantastic hosts, such passion in sharing farm life and enriching us with their knowledge. All 4 children (6yo to 10yo) thoroughly enjoyed their time here and there was not a dull moment. We learnt of the sweetness and also the harshness of living on a farm, understanding conserving resources and being among this community. Thank you Monica and Slav for this wonderful stay.

Fantastic Rural Experience!

My family and I had a wonderful time at Eco Olive Farm Stay! Monica is an attentive and accommodating host, and managed to provide us with a farm experience we will never forget. Throughout the stay we were provided with opportunities for different activities which the kids loved. On top of this the kids learnt a lot from Monica on how to care for farm animals. Highly recommended!

Beautiful place, excellent hosts

I treated my kids and grandkids ranging from 2 to 16 years old to a long weekend vacay before start of school. It was our first farmstay experience. The place was great! Beds were comfy, kitchen had everything we needed, pool was great and thoroughly enjoyed by the grandkids. Most of all, our hosts Monica and Slav were ideal. They went for that extra mile, being patient with booking hiccups, personally welcoming us, clarifying house rules, bringing the grandkids to the animals for a feed, setting up the bonfire. The overall experience exceeded everyone's expectations! Thank you again Monica and Slav for a wonderful stay.

Don’t think farm-stays are just for Kids!

Monica & Slav we’re the perfect hosts from the moment our staycation was booked. Great communicators, informative, friendly and most importantly so very welcoming. Nervous my 20, 19 & 16 yr old would find the weekend boring, they all say they had the best time ever, spending each day with both Slav & Monica exploring the farm , feeding & spending quality time with the farm animals, & going on local historic walks. It was perfect. From the tranquil location and the ease back to town for supplies, we certainly recommend this farm stay .

Farm stay to celebrate my baby girls' 2nd birthday

Beautiful location with serene views. I booked this place with my entire family to celebrate my baby's 2nd birthday. The feeding to farm animals is something we loved and we did it both the days we stayed there. The owners are just fabulous with great sense of humor. The animals are so well kept and it was a treat for my family and my baby to spend some time with them. The cabin is very cosy and has a prefect farm stay like vibe. The beds are so comfortable and warm. We had the coldest weather while staying there and the fire place was god sent. We cooked most of our food and the kitchen had all the tools and utensils we needed. The town centre is about 20 mins drive and highly recommend visiting the local butcher for good quality meat. Overall the stay was fabulous and would highly recommend it to families with kids.

Such a wonderful place for relaxing vacation

Monica and Slav were such an amazing people, their property is perfect for a family with little kids who needs some relaxing and at the same time entertain the little ones. The house was clean and specious, the little play ground and trampoline at our backyard were perfect for my son to burn some energy, then have a swim at the pool. The game room was the highlight (I think my partner and I enjoyed it even more than my son 🙊). My son loved the daily interaction with the animals, our dog can’t complain either, he had so much space to run around off leash and explore everything. there was so much to do on that property that we didn’t feel the need to go and travel around. The only times we left were when we needed grocery shopping. Thank you so much for having us, we enjoyed our time with you so much and we’re definitely coming back 😁
