I stayed with Nicky and her family for a month in February during which I had a wonderful experience. The farm is bursting with things to do so if you like to keep yourself busy you couldn't find a better place! The family have such a vast knowledge when it comes to horses and hoof care and I learnt so much during my time here. However it's not… read more

We had 2 great weeks here as a proper farm experience just like you expect it in Australia. Definantly a place for horselovers and energetic people. We had a lot of fun at the Rodeos, waterskiing at the lakes, playing tennis, swimming in the pool or enjoying the evening rides and movie nights.

Vom Host für Workawayer (Emma)

Emma started off being very quiet and unsure BUT she bloomed whist here and really enjoyed herself.
She was a Quiet achiever and was excellent with our young horses. I would definitely employ such a young girl if she lived in Australia. We miss her and so do the horses.

On their host page stated: “A home bursting of life”. This is definitely not a lie. There is an energetic energy around all of the Bowe’s. I think the saying “Work hard, play hard” is very suitable for this family. There are always plenty of jobs to do, like on any farm. You wont get bored, promise. There are often opportunities to go for a horse… read more

I stayed last minute with the Bowes when my other workaway plans were cancelled. Nicky was very accommodating last minute and the whole family was welcoming. The property is beautiful, and there is no shortage of things to keep you busy. Thanks again!

They have a… read more

Vom Workawayer (Esma & Merle) für Host

I stayed with Nicky and Andrew for three weeks this autumn and had the best time I could hope for. There is an inexhaustible amount of things to learn reaching from trimming hooves to shifting cows and making cakes.
As they say they are a very busy family and anyone with a vague interest in horses or farming is sure not to get bored. My days,… read more
