    So peaceful. Very comfy, cozy and quiet which covers all bases for us (older folk who just like peace and quiet!) The countryside also was beautiful and green - a lovely change from closer to Adelaide where we are desperate for rain!

    We loved this house! It was so beautiful and comfortable. The kids loved feeding the sheep and alpacas. Very close to Mount gambier and a great option instead of staying in town.

    It’s everything you want on a little get away trip from the 10 minute drive to the serenity of Mount gambier and the coziness within the cottage, one of the most beautifulest stays ever. The owners have a homey touch.

Neighbourhood information

The cottage is located in the farming township of Yahl located 10 minutes from Mount Gambier. The cottage is located on a sealed one lane road with other neighbours distanced across several paddocks. We reside in our own house at the back of the property, approximately 100 metres away from the cottage, and screened by shedding, fencing & a long driveway for your utmost privacy. Your closest neighbours are our curious alpacas and sheep that reside in the paddock alongside the cottage and enjoy being fed grain from the tub supplied to guests for a memorable farm stay experience!
