A 10-minute drive to Halls Gap and from there to walking opportunities was perfect as we could retire to our quiet spot when we wanted to. We enjoyed the short nature walk on the property. The property is close to Fallen Giants Vineyard, which was handy as we enjoy tastings. The fireplace and amply wood and kindling were good too. There are good views east and west for sunrise and sunset. Lots of roos and emus, which were fun.'
