Marianne and Alexis

Beautiful 300 acre farm which we run wool sheep, alpaca, house cows, horses, chickens and bees. Although we've been farming all our lives, we've only been hon this farm for a few years so we are still setting up. We are also growing vegetables and setting up an orchard. With the current situation we are setting up to grow additional vegetables to assist a local soup kitchen.  We are  working on improving our land through revegetating and addressing erosion. We love our farming lifestyle and are always looking to enjoy and improve our farm. We use little chemicals or none and are old fashioned in how we view our farm and work. We enjoy our horses and training our working dogs.  We believe in dignity and respect for all, the animals, the land and the people.

Bush Fire Prevention Work at Bellingen MidNorth Coast NSW 2nd and 3rd Year Visa able to be signed. 

 Our little farm is nestled in a beautiful valley just off Waterfall Way only 6 Kms from town of Bellingen.   It is our families and new friends sanctuary sitting on the bend of the creek. We await your energy and laughter to intermingle with the festivities of the kookaburras and crowing of the roosters.

We are seasoned travellers and know the beautiful art of generous hospitality and making others welcome.

 Beautiful fully self contained accomodation about 60 metres from our house will be your abode.  Shared meals in main house with my mediteranian specialties. See pictures.

We have had travellers stay six months  putting on a few kilos from homebakes!!  We stay in touch with a lot of our guests and many have returned.   A beautiful gift indeed these lovely shared times and connections.

 Work includes building, fencing,  tree planting and painting or whatever else you see needs doing that you wish to contribute.

 Weekends are off so you can enjoy the surrounding magnificent area which includes World Heritage National Park 25 Kms away on the Great Dividing Range escarpment, exquisite pristine mountain stream meandering through the rainforest or a walk along kilometres of unspoiled beaches.

Bellingen is an eclectic village on the shortest crystal clear river in Australia.  Why not try snorkelling with our unique turtles or a canoe trip to town?

 We don't have TV but do have Wi-Fi.

 No alcohol please, smoking under one of the many big gum trees.  Can't be sure you will spot a koala but certainly trees are filled with king parrots and pigeons.

 Closest train Urunga station.
