What recent reviews say

Guests consistently praise Lara and Jamie's hospitality and the immersive farm experience. Bungalows are spacious and well-equipped, with children gravitating toward animal feeds, vegetable picking, and the outdoor bathtub overlooking the paddocks. Wine tastings showcase their biodynamic Zinfandel and Vermentino. The property sits peacefully on the organic farm yet stays a short drive from Margaret River town and nearby wineries and beaches.

The business caters to families seeking a working-farm stay over luxury resort anonymity. Returning guests across a decade speak of memorable moments: watching sunrise over cattle, kangaroo sightings, and Lara's patient guidance through the market garden and winery. Recent five-star reviews span farm stays, wine tastings, and couples' getaways alike.

Every recent visitor left impressed by staff who remember why they came and make moments feel special, paired with wines worth a special occasion. The restored Tiger Moth plane and thoughtful decor turn a tasting into a story worth telling; Erin, Ally, Janet, Claire, and Ali each earned specific praise for turning knowledge into conversation. Restaurant bookings can fill fast, but the cellar door itself feels unhurried and personal. Most visitors rank it their top stop across multiple wineries in the region, citing both the winery's history and the care taken in every pour.

Owner Wendy and staff including Christine, Rachel, Charlie, and Brieux are named repeatedly across recent reviews.
