About this house sitting position in Locksley

Hello happy travellers
We have a sheep farm and vineyard on 400 acres in the foothills of the beautiful Strathbogie ranges. It’s a Perfect base in central Victoria- two hours from everywhere- snowfields, Melbourne, Bendigo / Shepparton, high-county etc. We are close to vineyard restaurants, lovely local farmers markets and we have a great country pub just down the road.
Our farm boasts the largest privately owned monolith in Australia and we have fabulous camping spots and walking tracks on the farm.
We have one lazy cattle dog - Tildy, she is very friendly and would love to show you around the farm (albeit slowly). Our cat - Perkins owns the place- he loves sleeping in the sun- a lot!!!!
We have a veggie garden that I get my water therapy in each afternoon- very relaxing
We also have 3 chickens that free-range during the day and keep us well supplied with eggs.
This holiday we are going to visit Rob's brother who lives in the States.
Hopefully by winter time we will have plenty of green grass for our sheep to eat, so no sheep work required. We will also have plenty of firewood to keep you warm.
Hope to hear from you soon, Thanks
Pettina Rob and Lucy.
