Life on the Farm
Immerse yourself in nature, meet our gentle animals, and discover the slow rhythm of the countryside.
Connect with What Matters
At Mountain View Farmstay, we offer more than just a place to sleep—we welcome you into an authentic, hands-on rural lifestyle. Our property is a sanctuary designed for children to safely explore, families to bond, and adults to find space to breathe.
From the moment you step outside, you are surrounded by acres of rolling landscape, crisp clean air, and the simple joy of countryside living. It is a grounding, therapeutic space where city noise disappears.
Meet Our Friendly Farm Animals
Unlike commercial attractions, our animal encounters are private, peaceful, and fully supervised, making them perfect and safe for young children. Guests can get up close, help care for, and feed our family of animals.
- Mini Highland Cows: Famous for their fluffy coats and gentle nature, you can watch, pat, and take photos with these beautiful, docile animals.
- Mini Goats & Mini Sheep: Incredibly friendly and full of personality, our miniature goats and sheep love to be held, cuddled, and hand-fed by kids.
- Bantam Chickens: Take a morning stroll to the coop to feed our bantam chickens and let your children experience collecting fresh farm eggs straight from the nesting boxes.
Wildlife at Your Doorstep
Because our farm is a natural habitat, you don’t need to visit a zoo to see Australian wildlife. Living completely wild on our property are some of the country’s most iconic animals. Step onto your deck at sunrise or dusk to spot them in their natural element:
- Kangaroos: Watch mobs of wild kangaroos grazing peacefully across the open paddocks in the soft morning light.
- Resident Wombats: Keep an eye out in the late afternoon as our resident wombats wander out from their burrows to roam the property.
- Echidnas: If you look closely near the logs and trees, you might be lucky enough to spot our quiet, elusive local echidnas foraging.
Simple Pleasures, Lasting Memories
Your days can be as active or as relaxed as you like. We provide a safe, wide-open environment where children can run free and explore safely.
- Fruit & Vegetable Picking: Stroll through the patches to pick fresh, seasonal fruits and vegetables grown right here on the farm.
- Open Spaces for Play: Plenty of safe, expansive grass areas for kids to explore, play outdoor games, and deeply connect with the natural world.
- Sunset & Stargazing: End your day by watching the sunset over the Razorback hills, followed by clear, unpolluted night skies perfect for stargazing.
Future Horizons: Wellbeing & Retreats
We are continuously growing our farm experience to focus on deep personal relaxation. Soon, we will be introducing small group workshops, meditation sessions, and mindfulness retreats—blending peaceful farm life with personal wellness and mental clarity.
