Reviews

What Our Guests at The Stables Say

Rustic self contained accommodation set within an old converted Stable
Jodie and Jae have created such a beautiful accommodation at the Stables. We fell in love with everything about this stay. From pre-arrival communication to the actual stay - it felt seamless. The decor, styling and all the little touches were really appreciated. The added treat for us for getting to meet the farm animals and seeing our first fantail! Our stay was peaceful and cosy - there’s also lots to explore around (wineries and walks) if you’re keen to be out and about.
We’ve stayed in a number of Airbnb’s now and the stables is absolutely one of our favourites. If you’re considering staying - go ahead and book and you won’t be disappointed! Thank you for hosting us Jodie and Jae, we can’t wait to be back for a longer stay next time! 

What Our Newly Weds Say

Hay Barn elopements at The Starling Homestead
Jodie & the homestead was incredible! We had an amazing stay at the homestead & were lucky enough to elope while we were staying. Jodie set up the homestead with amazing little personal touches! She organised a platter, stocked the fridge, made sure we had coffee, tea, breakfast, flowers, even a wee fondue set up so we could enjoy that after our platter! We had an amazing day & relaxing night, enjoying the outside baths! We will absolutely be back. Thank you so much Jodie! It was a very special time for us!
