Stay on a farm and enjoy the clean country air of Australia's South West.
Farmstays are a fantastic opportunity for kids (and adults) to interact with farm animals and to gain an understanding of how many of the foods and products that we rely on are produced.
Cuddling baby animals, hand feeding, tractor rides - all part of a farmstay in WA!
With many farms, stations & rural properties in this beautiful country opening their backyards to guests, farmstays are a great way to travel & holiday in Australia. You may prefer a farmstay close to the coast and beaches or an outback stationstay, whatever your choice Farmstay Australia website has over 140 properties online for you to browse and plan your next family break, quick weekend escape or a year long trip of Australia.
All farmstays are unique in their own way by what they offer to their visitors. You may like to learn and be involved in activities or just relax and enjoy the tranquillity of your surroundings with a good book and an occasional wander through the paddocks listening to the birds.
Whether you are looking for Farmstay Australia Accommodation which can range from bed & breakfast in the homestead, a self contained cottage or you prefer to enjoy the ambience of bunking down in shearers quarters.
You may be travelling with your caravan, camper trailer or tent and enjoy the option of setting up by a woolshed, the cattle yards or the dam and enjoy being woken to the sound of birds and the farm or station coming to life each morning.
It’s a great way to travel and explore with lots of open space around you, watching beautiful sunsets and relaxing at the end of the day by an open fire gazing at the stars and enjoying fellow travellers tales of where they have been or where they are hoping to explore while on the road or on their next holiday.
Enjoy meeting people off the land and sharing their backyard whether its one night or a week. Often you stay in touch with your hosts or they become friends that you will enjoy visiting again in your future travels.
Farmstay owners are naturally friendly and happy to explain and show you about real country life. Often their fascinating family history will go back a few generations as they explain of farming all their lives and loving their way of life. Many properties offer tours of the farm or station, woolshed or sunset tours.
Learn of the work that they do daily and offer a hand should you be inclined whether it be for an hour or a day. Farm activities will differ and sometimes be seasonal. Check with you host upon booking if there is something in particular you are hoping to see during your Farmstay holiday.
We have farmstay properties online in each state, some are within 1-2 hours of major cities, country properties with a few hours drive of your home, or outback stations that cover thousands of acres and may take a few days to arrive at your destination. The possibilities are endless.
