Katherine is an amazing business owner that exceeds expectations. The cottage was very clean, tidy and had many many facilities and household items that were not expected to be there. I really enjoyed the stay and so did my kids and would love to come again soon. I'm very pleased with what was given and would love to thank the owners for creating this wonderful farmhouse.

Paw Australia

Nice countryside retreat but still close to the city of York. The owners were very accommodating and friendly. There is a kitchen, barbecue... everything needed for a short stay. The presence of animals is very relaxing.

Alexandre Thailand

The cottage was clean and very well equipped for a few nights’ stay. Plenty of room for a toddler to play indoors. Just enough activities throughout the day on the farm for children while also tranquil for some much needed R&R for the adults. The hosts were warm and friendly. The animals were interactive and very well behaved even for young children.

Joanna Singapore

Overall location and facilities were fantastic. The owner was very friendly and helpful and pleasant to talk to.

Piyush Australia

It was great experience staying at Lavendale farmhouse in York. Katherine, owner was kind, helpful and provide great customer services. The location was great as we experience something very different than busy metro life, it was quite, pleasant and fun stay at farmhouse. Kids loved all animals and animal feeding session along with special tractor ride. and of course, will not forget fresh eggs each evening after animal feeding session. York town has itself own beauty, visited couple of places in and around town during three days stay. Overall, it was awesome experience staying at Lavendale farmhouse. Thank you Katherine.

Lisa Australia

The cottage was very cozy and lovely, the kitchen was very well equipped with all the utensils needed for cooking. The fireplace was beautiful and warmed the cottage so well. The bed was super comfy and the view from the patio was beautiful! The animals were so gorgeous and the hosts were lovely when we met them! Such a brilliant stay, we absolutely loved the farm, well done Katherine and Merv! Ps. The home baked bread on arrival was delicious, a very lovely gesture 😊

Michelle Australia

lovely bread left out for us. Fire was a nice bonus. Nice to have small items ready to go like tea coffee milk.

Dean Australia

The location was fantastic and I really loved how quiet it is at night. The animal feeding was my favourite part of my stay, and the owners Kathleen and Merv made us feel right at home. I recommend this place to anyone wanting a unique experience.

Cherrie Australia

1. The beds were extremely comfortable. 2. Kids had so much fun interacting with the animals. They managed to try activities they have never done before like milking a goat, brushing ponies and hugging them, feeding a cow with bread and seeing and learning so much. 3. The freshly baked bread was delicious. 4. Lovely sky was covered with a blanket of beautiful stars at night.

Farmers Katherine and Merv

One of the best features of the property is the granite hill which can be seen from every point of the farm. The Avon River forms one of the boundaries and provides lots of natural bush to complement the farming side of our operation. It is the wonderful experience of country life which our guests have here that sets us apart.

Farmer Merv and Farmer Katherine have built Lavendale Farm from scratch. It is an ongoing project, and a labour of love. All of our cottages and units are quite unique. We host the animal feeding in the evenings and will answer all your questions about the animals.

Our Farm is halfway between the historical towns of York and Beverley. This is a rich agricultural area with crops and sheep. The town of York has many historical buildings the visit. Both towns have hotels and cafes and museums. Our farm itself is set up for families and is very safe for children, but we do ask that you read our "Safety Suggestions" which are in our guests folders, along with lots of suggestions of things to do and see in the area.
