​At The Farmhouse we spend
​a great deal of time
​around our Firepit.

It's the perfect place to unite, switch off from screens, and
sit listening to the calls of nature as the sun sets and
the wondrous noises of the evening start to volume up. 
Having once lived, and travelled extensively in the USA, we are all kind of besotted with the lifestyle. Trips to places like Jackson Hole, The Lakes District - Upstate New York, NYC, Telluride, Nantucket, Vermont and Ojai, to name a few, have captured our hearts. Making S'mores over the open flame of our fire-pit in The Farmhouse takes us back to the places where these happy memories were once  made and creates a space for new ones ! 
     
            This is a must-read about how the early Australians managed our beautiful land, including using fire to regenerate.
