Our little Dave ❤️

Somehow, the smallest little lamb took up an enormous amount of space around here.

Miss this funny little weirdo.

Some farmstays have w**e tasting.
Some have yoga.
We have Scrappy.

Activities vary depending on his mood and how much supervision is available.

There are some things you just can’t really put in an accommodation listing.
We can tell you how many bedrooms there are, show you the kitchen, the pool and where you’ll sleep.
But it’s harder to explain waking up and looking out at this.

The Maremmas wandering around doing their rounds.
The ridiculous number of animals who all seem to think they own the place.
The sunsets that still make us stop and look.

It’s definitely not a perfectly manicured resort.
It’s our home, a little working farm and usually a fair bit of chaos.

And that’s kind of the whole point.
Come stay in the middle of it.

Chicken Town 2.0 is coming along nicely 🐔

The walls are getting sturdier, the gates are finally on and after a combination of YouTube tutorials, ChatGPT and making it up as I went along, I can build gates now.

Still plenty to do. There is ALWAYS plenty to do.

The full Chicken Town 2.0 episode is now up on YouTube if you want to see how we got here 👇

My dad always used to have this saying- “If you go home hungry or sober, it’s your own fault.”
And growing up as one of 10 kids with a chef Mumma, I think mass feeding people was probably always going to be in my blood.

I still have absolutely no idea how to cook for two people…
I do, however, know how to cook a good steak, roast a ridiculous amount of pumpkin and make sure nobody leaves hungry.

Which is why I love catering here at Allusions so much.
Everyone can settle in around the table, eat too much, have another glass of w**e and best of all- stay the night.
No one has to worry about heading home.

Turns out Dad’s philosophy fits in pretty well around here!

Farm skills start early around here!

Pete giving Tom a quick excavator lesson, while Miller provides the most enthusiastic commentary from the sidelines.

“GOOD JOB TOM!” ❤️
Everyone needs a Miller in their corner…

Dave made himself at home pretty quickly.

Somewhere along the way, the bottle lamb who was meant to be staying outside became a jumper-wearing, dog-cuddling, house-visiting member of the family.

Kingsley, the part time farm puppy didn’t seem to mind either. ❤️

Just another completely normal situation at Allusions.

A fairly normal day at Allusions…
Someone wants breakfast.
Someone else also wants breakfast.
The pigs are absolutely certain they have never been fed in their lives.
The peacocks are somewhere they probably shouldn’t be.
The Maremmas have been supervising everyone since sunrise.
And eventually it all goes quiet again.
Until tomorrow….

Marge surprised us with nine piglets — and now they’re big enough to cause absolute mayhem. 🐷💨
They’re fast, noisy, ridiculously cute… and our pig pen wasn’t even finished when they arrived.
