Are there Walking Trails and other Activities on the Property
One of our favourite past times is to walk around our property. It is a truly spectacular property with lots of beautiful vantage points and many hidden treasures. Given that it is a rural property, we highly recommend wearing covered shoes when walking. Be sure to follow the map in your chalet for the Ruse Ramble to ensure that you get to enjoy all that our beautiful property has to offer.
Down by the lake are 2 kayaks that you are welcome to use. We ask that you leave them as you found them. In the carriage house on the dam you will also find outdoor games plus indoor games and books, such as Bocce, Finska and Croquet.
We are also a registered Land for Wildlife (property 2154) property which we take very seriously. We are privileged to share our property with many native birds and animals, such as masked owls, both Baudin and Carnaby Black Cockatoo’s, Red Tail Cockatoos, Tawny Frogmouths, Phascogale, Ring Tail Possums and many other frogs and reptiles. We are hoping to be used as a release property for some threatened species who need a safe haven to be released.
