My deepest sympathy for your loss. I have just read this post and feel yes, you do need a place to stop, breathe and rest.
You and your family and your friends family have been through a rough trot and I feel a change of scenery will do your heart some good. Take care and vent on here when possible

Hey Sarah thank you so much for your information. I guess everyone is an expert at opening a retreat but does anyone actually ask the patient?? I know it doesn't only affect the cancer victim, it's the whole family but still, the farm and cottages we have are mainly couples only but big enough to share for two adults and two small kids. Thanks again for your feed back and yes, we have alpacas, cows, sheep, lambs, ponies and dogs. We also have chickens, guinea fowls and geese. We give the people who stay with us the opportunity to help with chores or if they wish, escape on the 106 acres and enjoy the peace. We currently have English people staying this week and they saw a wombat for the first time ever. Tomorrow they get to see the echidnas. Cannot wait to see their faces 🙂 Looking forward to hearing more views..

Hello there.
Would like to ask a question of everyone interested. I am a breast cancer survivor. I have had three different episodes. With each episode I had to either completely forego work or work partime.
Lack of funds meant I couldn't go to have a break. For example, a retreat or holiday. This I wanted badly but just couldn't affort it.
If you had the opportunity for a break, retreat, what would you be expecting? Just a question and am throwing it out there :)

Hello Sarah. I don't think they were upset by this. The lady who bought the puppy gave the impression by the time the cat sat on the end of their bed, they were quite ready to go. Maybe the cat on the end of the bed was actually a blessing???
My grandmothers nursing home in Thomastown just had a pet day. They were able to hold animals, feed them and so on.
My grandmother who was never an animal person was petting a dog. This I found incredible but she loved it! I love animals, they love you unconditionally. And don't I know it! I have 3 labradors 🙂

Hello Jules.
Thank you. I will let the creator know you love her website. We took the pictures and she waved her wand and came up with a website even I can play with. Although between you and me, I actually deleted the bookings page and she had to help me build it again lols.
The farm is only 41kms North of the Melbourne CBD. If you know the outer suburbs, 15 minutes north of Epping and Craigieburn, 8 minutes from Wallan, 12 minutes from Kilmore and 15 minutes from Whittlesea. Eden Park is on our border for where Hadfield Road is it is the divider of Whittlesea and Mitchell Shires (much conflict, no not at all 🙂 If ever in Victoria, you must come up. It is where heaven meets Earth I am certain of this. Peaceful, tranquil and you wake up to birds, kangaroos and if you spend time at the bushland, you will see wombats, echidnas and more. We love it. And so have our visitors :)
Hope you are doing as best as can be
Annie

That is just incredible!! I love labradors and have 3 of them. I have always said they are a wonderful animal and know a little more than we give them credit for 🙂 I hope more monies are thrown into researching what we can learn from all creatures :)
Hope you are doing as best as can be Ben
