4 guest comments - average rating is: 4.5 out of 5
We are located 11 kms west of Wirrabara adjacent to the Wirrabara Forest, and across the road from the historic Old Forest Nursery, which contains many large specimen trees, and was the place where plantation forestry in South Australia began.
We have available two self contained cottages: Apricot Cottage and Ruby Cottage. Both are North facing, have large verandahs, and have slow combustion wood fires for cosy winter evenings.
Apricot Cottage can accomodate up to 5 people and Ruby Cottage up to 6.
We are a 'family friendly' location, with plenty of space and a collection of farm animals, including poultry, geese, sheep, cattle, guinea pigs and two friendly kelpie dogs.
We can provide a porta-cot and high chair, and have toys, videos and DVD's.
Both cottages have a AAA 3.5 Green Star rating, as an indication of our environmental focus.
Thank you for the stay in such a peaceful and scenic place. We loved the sounds of the kookaburras, and the stars you can't see in Adelaide. C.N. April 08
