This is why we do what we do! It gives us great pleasure to share with other families the enrichment our children were lucky enough to receive in their childhood growing up with farm animals and nature, no textbook quite does it like hands on#settlersrestfarmstay #soperth#destinationperth #farmanimals #farmsarebest #holidayonafarm #swanvalleyfarmstay

Here at Settlers Rest, we like to think that Introducing children to animals creates a life long love that is so important, clearly our gorgeous granddaughter has!!!! Not surprising when she is surrounded by animals every day here at the farm, horses, sheep, goats, cow, alpacas , chickens. This beautiful picture however was taken Swan Valley Station, a short 5 minute drive from the farm, while enjoying a coffee. If you are looking for a Farmstay close to Perth, we have a vacancy on 3 and 4 September due to a cancellation#settlersrestfarmstay #swanvalleystation #funwithanimals#childrenandanimals #loveofanimals #ponylove

Amazing natural vista tonight as the large bright moon reflects over the swollen flooded river, impossible for my phone camera to capture how magical this was with the added bonus of kookaburras singing in the trees#settlersrestfarmstay#moonrising#floodwater #swanriver

Just as well we moved our horses to higher ground yesterday, this is what we woke up to this morning!!! All six stables are full and others are on wherever we can. Thanks to those that have helped, it is truly appreciated. Lots of work around here before we get back to normal. A interesting experience for our guests at the moment, nature in full force#settlersrestfarmstay #horsepaddocksunderwater#destinationperth #soperth #swanvalley #amazing#swanriver#natureexperiences

At last the rain appears to be easing. We now have a lake running through the middle of the property, certainly need the wellie boots to wade through this to get to the fast flowing river #settlersrestfarmstay #swanvalley #destinationperth #winterintheswanvalley #rainraingoaway☔️ #swanriver

And the river keeps getting hirer! We have to protect our animals and keep a very close watch, a fair bit if the farm is covered by water but it’s not flooded at present#settlersrestfarmstay

What more could you want on a cool wet winters day on a farm right here in the Swan Valley! Grab the marshmallows and enjoy the open fire with the kids, perhaps an experience new to them. Photo credit to a recent family, thanks for the pic of a beautiful fire in the original 100 year plus cute place #settlersrestfarmstay #marshmellows #destinationearth #soperth #familyfarmstay #winterescapes #winteronthefarm
