We are rural, but we also have neighbours, we do not allow schoolies or party people to hire our property.
There is also tiny home accommodation outside the house gardens, they sleep two couples and their aspect is away from the farmhouse. We also have a cabin experience upon the east border of our property, this cannot be seen from the farmhouse. All of the visitors only access their immediate space and don't need to go into the farmhouse gardens or space.
