I‘m a former actor, come Opera Director and I bought the farm 5 years ago with a real need to feel connected to the land. My two kids and I, as much as we’d love to, can’t realistically make the full time move to the farm and so I want to share it’s beauty. My vegetable garden is my creative outlet these days - there is nothing more satisfying than growing, picking, cooking and eating your own food! I want to share the pleasure that this slice of paradise gives to our family (including my two beautiful golden retrievers) with others to enjoy. I hope that you see the beauty I do in nature - how lucky we are!!!

Bush Walking On The Property

With over 100acres of natural bush on the property you will never be short of a walking adventures. Be sure to stop at the dam with the jetty and watch for eagles!!!

Star Gazing

Away form the city lights the Stars from the deck shine bright!

Yoga On The Deck

Star Gazing

The open sky at Lalwinya Cottage gave us the best view of the stars on our first night. Sitting out on the deck, we were able to even see Mars! We also had a little play with spotlighting on the property.

Farm Walks

Lalwinya Cottage is 300 acres of working farm, and you are allowed to explore all parts of it (as long as gates are closed behind you!). There were so many amazing views through the hills, and being spring - so many beautiful flowers!

Jetty On The Dam

We walked down to the jetty to enjoy our first afternoon here. It was such a beautiful dam - if the weather was warmer, most definitely bring your bathers! Dusty had a good swim, and we had a great time relaxing in the sunshine overlooking the water.
