This barn stay was absolutely charming. It was clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully set up, with great attention to detail. The setting was peaceful and relaxing, and the hosts were welcoming and helpful. A perfect little escape — highly recommend.I died & went to heaven when I saw the beautiful stables.

Lovely barn stay

We enjoyed a 5 night stay with our three boys and the lovely owner also accommodated our Rhodesian ridgeback. We all loved meeting and feeding the horses amd the location was a good spot to access all the surrounding towns of Mt Macedon. We will be reccomending to our friends with horse's.
