Stay

The Red Shed

Enjoy a deep slumberous sleep in our spacious studio with kitchenette, separate ensuite & outdoor baths.

At the base of Welcome Rock is the ‘Red Shed’, the original woolshed lovingly restored with touches of home.

It’s the wonderful indulgences, visitors say, that make the Red Shed special – like the twin outdoor baths under the stars, spectacular farm views and a barbecue/patio area to enjoy homemade local food.

And of course the visiting chickens, retired dogs or sheep dog puppies-in-training.

All accommodation bookings include access to the Roaring Lion Walking & Biking Trail, for you to explore at your leisure
