Situated on 10 acres of farm land and orchards, you will be entertained by our resident guinea fowl ( the girls) or relax watching our lawn mowing sheep. In season you are welcome to help yourself to our “fruit bowl” orchard or enjoy our ever expanding garden or drinks by the dam.

I stayed here with a group of friends over an August weekend and it was amazing! Cosy but spacious enough for our needs, with gorgeous views and surrounding paddocks. Close drive to the local IGA and some other stores. Great communication from John. Heads up that you need to take your rubbish with you as they don't have local council rubbish collection there. We would love to stay here again in future!

Tucked away on the sidelines of Bridgetown lies a gem of a place to stay, wind down, sleep, soak in the views, bird spot and experience the luxury and tranquility of the perfect hideaway.My family had the pleasure of experiencing all that, last weekend, July,2026. The five bedroom house is set on a hill slope and commands enchanting views of rolling hills, blossoming trees, citrus fruit trees, well-fed sheep, a picture-blue pond and magnificent bird life. In short, the house ticked all our boxes of the perfect getaway - proximity to the town, warm shelter, all of the mod cons, and a well-positioned viewing deck. My husband especially loved the high quality stereo speakers. This is our second time staying at this property this year and wouldn’t hesitate to stay again. We loved it!

Or multi-generation family spent a wonderful week at Aruma! The house is super-spacious, very, very well equipped to a high spec. The location and views are stunning - across the valley towards the river and Bridgetown. The hosts have thought of everything and are very responsive and generous. Highly recommended.
