Our house: We have a 4 bed single storey home situated on 7acres about 75kms from Melbourne and 5kms from Lancefield town itself. We are 10kms from Cobaw State forest and look out onto Mount William. It is great location for those who love walking, cycling or running or just the great outdoors. We are surrounded by fantastic local wineries many with their own restaurants and are only 20 minutes drive from Piper Street in Kyneton renowned for its fantastic restaurants and cafes. There is lots to explore only a short distance away.
Our animals: We have 6 horses, 3 cats, 2 dogs and 3 chickens. 2 of our cats are indoor cats only the other 1 spends most of her time indoors but needs a bit of a break at times from the sometimes exuberant teenage boys! Our dogs cannot be mixed with either cats or chickens so whoever cares for our brood needs to be particular and rigorous about shutting doors and gates. Our horses are hard fed once a day (round bails left out but some need separating at meal time to ensure they get what they need. Once they've finished their hard feed they go back with their paddock buddies. Depending on the weather they may need rug changes up to twice daily so confidence and experience around horses is a must. Our 3 lovely chickens free range in the day and retire to their coop of a night time. There are plenty of foxes in the area so the girls need to be locked up in their coop every night to ensure they are safe. Our animals are our loves and lives and we need to be sure they are left in the hands of someone who is confident and willing to care for them as we do. If you like the sound of having an opportunity to explore the Beautiful Macedon Ranges Shire and caring for a range of characterful animals please give us a shout to discuss.
