Great place to stay....home from home with the added attraction of all the animals

Lovely big house with all amenities required to enjoy a nice relaxing stay. Ideal for families with children. I loved the outside covered decking area with BBQ for leisurely breakfasts or a glass of wine in the evening.

Great family holiday accommodation

Fantastic family accommodation. Our teens loved the space and privacy, but it would also be perfect for younger families. The house was spotless and had everything we could possibly need. The animals were lovely to wake up to every morning. Highly recommend!

A Great Time on KI

Great place to stay as a couple of couples - plenty of room; great location, and very well set up property.Peaceful and out of town - but close to Kingscote.Feeding the animals and meeting Mick's menagerie was an added bonus and was most enjoyable.We had a great time exploring the island and eating and drinking too much.A very pleasant and relaxing experience.Would highly recommend staying at Al Pac Em Inn.

1st time farm stay experience and what a lovely home and host. Greeted by two beautiful horses who we got to feed every day, and our host made sure we had everything we needed. Even though we had been before to KI, he gave us new ideas and places to go.Our 3yr old son loved all the animals and he was super excited to check out if the chickens had left eggs for us every morning.The house was spacious, clean and had everything we needed. We had good and clear communication for the host, and we couldn’t thank them enough for a lovely stay.

Perfect position. Beautifully kept expansive gardens. The house is lovely, welcoming, spotlessly clean and has everything you need. Mick and Mandy are great hosts. Both adults and kids will love the animals....oh, and Bruce the Clydesdale is magnificent.

5 Star stay, we wanted for nothing the whole stay. Home is well appointed, clean and comfortable. Centrally located for tourist day trips. Perfect for families with children, farm animals were friendly and daily fresh eggs was a bonus, thanks for the great memories and chats with Mick and Mandy. Wayne, Karen, Stephen and Lori.

Very comfortable and Spacious

A great location, very neat and tidy. Perfect for our extended family holiday with the in-laws. Was wonderful to be able to go outside and pat and feed the horses and cows. Definitely recommend it. Only small hiccups the property address on the listing was completely wrong so had to call to get the correct address after searching for a while and most of the DVDS didn't work having been scratched so much by use, all easily remedied :)
