The accommodation was ideal, with everything we needed available. Electric blankets on the beds were appreciated. Host was very friendly and informative.
Arrived early to find the owners, had a nice chat with them, enjoyed meeting the animals and enjoying the views from this historical farmhouse. Big screen TV :) nice and clean, very happy overnighter.
Morella Farm provided a great one night stop-over on our way to Kangaroo Island. The beds were very comfy with plenty of.linen and blankets. The kids had a ball with the alpacas, goats and deer. The play equipment and trampoline were also a favourite. There was plenty of crockery and cutlery in the kitchen too.
Such a great place to stay. House is well appointed, beds very comfortable, dog friendly.
The animals are awesome. Farm is a real working one. Alpacas, goats, cows, sheep - all very friendly. You may be lucky enough to bottle feed sone baby animals.
Thanks!

Thank you Tim for the kind review. Glad you enjoyed our Farmstay. All the best.
The kids loved the interaction with all of the animals and we considered ourselves lucky to have booked the day you had planned to shear your little flock. My son and daughter-in-law visiting from Karratha, with their kids and son and daughter-in-law here from Adelaide with their two girls may never have had the opportunity to see sheep being shorn before, so I think they were very lucky. Some of us were not well for the duration of the stay and despite the weather would love to be able to visit sometime again in the future. Thanks again, Ian and family
Large dog friendly accomodation. The kids loved feeding all the animals and playing on the swings and trampoline. The adults enjoyed the beautiful view and peace and quiet. Thanks for a great stay

Beautiful little farm
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Morella Farm. There is plenty of space for a bigger group and the kids just fell in love with the Alpacas;) Great location to spend the night prior to jump onto the ferry to KI.
Thank you for having us.
