We had such a wonderful stay at The Mainstay Farmstay! The place was incredibly clean and beautiful. The kitchen was packed with essentials, anything you may need to cook up a good meal. It was so beautifully decorated and homey with an indoor fireplace. There was even a nearby shed where you could find board games and supplies for fun activities. There was always a large supply of firewood that's a one-minute walk away, and they even had two little flashlights for when it's dark out. The owner was also really lovely and communicative, reaching out to us with instructions prior to our arrival. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a private, peaceful getaway with a view of the Milky Way!

My boyfriend and I stayed here as a weekend getaway for my 24th Birthday. Our stay was absolutely amazing! A beautiful location met with a beautiful cabin. From the amazing amenities including the indoor fireplace through to the little details of crocheted blankets and comforting decor. We truly felt at home. I adored the shack and the selection of games and activities, the greenhouse full of beautiful sprouting plants and timber shed to collect our firewood. Was fun to look around and be able to explore the property. If you’re looking for a peaceful retreat with your partner or family away from the hustle bustle, this is the place to go! Henka is a lovely host, with such a passion to make her guests feel warmly welcome. We were so happy with our stay and would love to come back!!!

I've stayed here twice - it's an excellent location and very comfortable spaces! The amenities more than met my needs. The hosts are also wonderful - very responsive and engaged. I loved that the cabins are so peaceful and relaxing, but also a very quick drive to the iconic Seal Rocks beaches (one of my favorite areas of Australia)! Highly recommend.

This was an amazing stay for the whole family. We spent Xmas eve and couple more days around in one of the cabins and it was just perfect. Cosy, minimalistic, tasteful. Very peaceful. The beaches close by and the landscape were so incredible. We hope to return soon.

Henna is such an excellent host of these fabulous cabins. Exactly what we go to seal rocks for and so well kept along with some really homely touches! Highly recommend if you want to get away and switch due to no wifi or reception.
