About the host
Hosted by Gary and Maria Edwards
Hi my name is Gary, my wife Maria and I fell in love with this property when we saw it in November 2019, we purchased it in 2020, our two cottages sit in the middle of our 125 acre farm, approximately 70 meters apart. They are set back from the road over 500 meters giving guests space and privacy. we have a small herd of Dexter cattle, keep and breed our own chickens and try to live from the land as much as possible in an organic way, although not certified.
Why they chose this property
The two cottages are set back from the road, and 180 meters from our property giving space and privacy. You are free to wander parts of the property (please keep gates shut, livestock roaming), beware some fences maybe electrified,gates are not. There are 3 dams on the property and must not be entered, children to be supervised at all times. If you want to meet our cows, we are happy to locate them for you. On your wanderings you are sure to bump into a roo or two. There are spectacular views of the Porongurup ranges from within your cottage (including Gibraltar rock and Manyat peak (the last peak)), from different vantage points on the property there are amazing views of the sterling ranges, only a 40 min drive away.
We back onto the Porongurup national park which is a hikers paradise.
