Bulgana, Victoria

About this house sitting position in Bulgana

My home is on a sheep farm in the rolling farmland of western Victoria, 15 minutes from Stawell,10 minutes from the wine village of Great Western, and only 40 minutes from the Grampians and its endless hikes, scenery and wildlife.
I have a kelpie Bella and a border collie Meg. Bella just loves people and endless pats. She has dodgy knees so is not meant to run much and has daily medicine. Meg is full of energy and could run forever. She tends to be scared of strangers due to her earlier life, but quiet attention and food bring her around.
The two cats generally disappear with strangers around, but do need their breakfast and dinner!
My solo chook happily free ranges during the day and gets shut in safety in her pen overnight, if you're out in the garden she usually appears fairly soon to scratch nearby and hope for treats.
Most of my farm is under lease, the mob of dorper sheep I run are fairly self sufficient.
You are welcome to use the house, or bring a caravan. The house downstairs is heated by a slow combustion wood heater and a wood stove, with alternative electric cooking options. There is wood stored in the woodshed. It is an older house with some areas unsorted from my parents, but there are comfy armchairs by the fire or in the sun-warmed porch and the upstairs "guest suite" (bedrooms and bathroom) is ready to welcome you.
The house is on lovely fresh tank water - my tanks are plenty full enough with only me here, as long as visitors are reasonably water wise. Read more...
