HORSEHAVEN FARMSTAY

A place with heart, soul and atmosphere (flowers, candles, books and music).
We care for the environment and love animals (nine beautiful horses, milking goats, chooks and two lovely dogs, etc.)
The cottage is in a private and picturesque setting. Little fully equipped kitchen, veranda with BBQ. Big outside table, watch the birds and listen to the creek.

We offer HORSERIDING in the beautiful hills (bush) surrounding us. For beginners or advanced (we can go fast).

We can organize bon or campfires if season allows.

Free:
- participate in farmlife, like milking, collecting eggs, feeding, brushing a horse... or making bread

Conny, your host, is a passionate horselover, gardener and cook.

You can either relax, meditate or rejuvenate, be spoilt with wholesome food.
Or have the fun of a lifetime with activities.
In spring there is a wonderful display flowering rhododendrons on my farm.

There are breathtaking views all around us.
We are just 40 minutes from Hobart.

Come relax, enjoy, and be welcome!

Dear Conny,
You have a stunningly beautiful place here - we are very jealous and sorry we could stay only 2 nights.
Thank you for your kind hospitality and a wonderful breakfast.

Horsehaven is an organic little farm since 26 years! The aim was always to be self-sufficient!
Some years I had huge gardens (when the kids were little).Now I have a buisiness and the gardens are smaller, but still productive. I always make great compost!.Still have milking-goats. My idear about life is: to live simple, polute as little as possible, grow your own and recycle as much as possible and live in harmony with Nature (yes, I love the forests! I am not for clear-felling), animals and people and be happy with the simple things in life! ( a smile, a rainbow, good food, a little camp-fire.............and for me: I need happy animals.
I can teach gardening, bread-making (sourdough), milking and lot's more.
I am as passionate about living on the land as I was 26 years ago.
