Farm tours

As seen on Better Homes and Gardens with Dr Harry! 

Need to entertain the kids before a day of wine tasting for the adults? We’ve been there! Bribe them with a visit to our working farm. We note that children are optional but not required – this is a tour for animal lovers of all ages!

Join us at morning feeding time (9am) and meet our emus, chickens, peacocks, dairy goats and Babydoll sheep. On this guided tour we will share our passion for animals and rural living with you and explain the purpose of each animal on the farm. 

You will interact with the animals at a safe distance but there will be opportunities for pats and feeding as well. Once we have finished feeding the animals, adults may wish to participate in a complimentary wine tasting at the cellar door building.

Cost: Children $10, Adults $40, Children under 3 free. Payment required at start of tour. A minimum of 4 persons is required for this tour to go ahead. Approx 1 hour + 30 minutes for wine tasting.

Please note: As this is a working farm/winery children must be supervised at all times and all persons must remain with the guide for the entire tour. We ask that children under 3 are carried or remain in a pram at all times. Most paths are flat but there may be some rough terrain depending on the weather conditions. Please wear sun protection and sensible enclosed shoes (that can get dirty and can be disinfected with our shoe bath station), we recommend gumboots. If the weather is unpleasantly cold or wet we will contact you the day before or in the morning to determine if the tour should go ahead.  We request 24hrs notice of cancellation.
