Wonderful

We had a wonderful stay at Soulitude. The property is very relaxing with everything you need. Hosts were very warm and welcoming and we had a fabulous dinner at the Friday night pop-up restaurant in the local village of Hannam Vale. We only stayed 2 nights but next time will stay longer as we did not have enough time to enjoy everything this property has to offer. Also note when we booked the listing said BYO linen but all linen is provided so no need to bring anything.

Great Time

We visited Dave and Beth’s SOULitude Farm stays over the summer break and we could not have a better and more relaxing time. Dave and Beth are extremely welcoming and gracious hosts and showed us around the property and the animals. The house is beautifully decorated and very comfortable. We spent many evenings just taking in the outdoors and interacting with the animals from the lovely decked area. Our toddler especially loved Boots and Socks and our dog has had the time of her life sniffing around the property. We will definitely be visiting again! Thank you

Peaceful, beautiful location and home. The mini cows being a highlight!

We are very grateful to both Beth and Dave for sharing their acreage with us. The traditional home was very comfortable and lovingly decorated. The surrounding gardens, fruit trees and pond evoke peace and tranquillity, which was only surpassed by the private bath within the rustic barn. Family meals and a nap were easily enjoyed in the outdoor pergola. However, meeting their friendly horses and hand feeding carrots to the gentle mini cows "Sox and Boots" was definitely a bonus.

Beautiful Oasis

Soulitude Farm was the perfect getaway for my friends and I. From the rolling fields of luscious grass and the animals, to the beautiful cottage itself, we loved this getaway from the beginning! With a fireplace, indoor/outdoor shower and bath, BBQ and a stocked pantry, we had everything we needed and more. The owners were very helpful and responded quickly, and went above and beyond to ensure we had a pleasant stay. We visited Waitui Falls, drove to Delizioso for dinner one night in Laurieton and had lunch at Moorland cottage, all of which I can highly recommend. We loved staying at Soulitude Farm, it provided a peaceful escape from busy everyday life.

Perfect Property

This was a beautiful property and we will definitely be back!! Stunning views and a beautiful peaceful location - aaah, the serenity!! So good for the soul - thank you SOULitude and Dave and Beth are the absolute perfect hosts. House was well-stocked with everything provided that you need for your stay. The home was very clean and lovingly cared for and stylishly decorated. Lots of wallabies on the property to watch. We loved it - it was exactly what we needed. Please note that if you take your fur-babies, the fenced house yard will not contain them. It is suitable for dogs that do not wander and will stick by your side and they do not want to get into the paddocks to play with the cows and horses or chase the wallabies :-)
