The farmstay was the perfect space to spread out with young children
‘The farmstay was the perfect space to spread out with young children.
The kids loved watching the horses, playing in the pool, feeding the chooks and dancing on the lawns.
The clawfoot baths were a treat for us all. Plenty of room for cups of tea or BBBQs on the large deck.
We had a great family reunion at Magpie Creek. …….. Naomi and Family
