Some of our activities here have been swimming, rowing, fishing (catch & release), quad bikes, horse riding and walking through our own private bushland. It has been our piece of Utopia, enjoying and loving our hideaway amongst nature and the tranquillity of rural living that goes with it. No need to go away we had it all right here."
