There is a 2.5km river frontage which is fenced off from the main farming activities. All of the river bank area is natural bush and the property is a "Land for Wildlife" site. The country style farm house was completed in July 2007 and offers beautiful views of the surrounding hills and farmland.

Lavendale Farm is a place to come and relax under the wide verandahs, watch the animals graze and walk among the vast array of native Australian trees which have been planted as shelter belts and hosts in the sandalwood plantation.

Things To DoThings To Do

Lavendale Farm has plenty to do if you want to just relax close to "home". The river is a very peaceful place to walk along. It is completely natural and the only paths are made by kangaroos. In places it is hard going, but finding a nice place to sit on the bank is worthwhile.

Always wear boots when walking in the bush. The sandalwood plantation is great to wander through and the animals will always appreciate a scratch behind to ear or a brushing if you are used to horses. In future there will be a swimming pool and children¿s play ground. We have a games room with table tennis foosball and a drawing board and a sand pile and playground for the kids. Weather permitting we can have a camp fire in the evenings.

We are still establishing gardens and other features. Lavendale Farm is a brand new project, and we don¿t mind if you want to lend a hand with the weeding!

York: The historical town of York is 10 minutes from Lavendale Farm. Some of the more well known attractions are the Motor Museum; The Old Gaol and Court House; the Residency Museum; The Mill gallery; York Wines, Avon Walk Trail and Swinging Bridge. The historical village of Greenhills only 15 minutes drive away has a great pub and a well set up equestrian centre.
