Thank you for providing us with the opportunity to see what life is all about in this beautiful but tough part of our country, Australia. It gives us city folks a glimpse into a lifestyle not always well understood. We very much appreciate all you do to keep this property operational so other can experience it too. Janet & Gary, Canberra - Australia

We have had a fabulous 4 night stay at Willow Springs. The cottage was just amazing and so cosy when we got the fire going! The beds were SO comfortable and we slept like bugs in rugs every night. We couldn't have had a better place to stay and it enhanced our visit to the beautiful Flinders Ranges. Keith & Angela Baker and Deb & Ray McMahon, Brisbane - Australia

We want to say a huge thank you for providing our family a place to congregate. Family members travelled great distances and were provided an amazing, safe space for the children to enjoy. 30 adults and 5 children stayed this weekend and will definitely be coming back/sharing with our friends! We are so glad that there are still such beautiful places in our country that is shared with the public. We are very sad to leave and go back to the big smoke but we will be back and hopefully next time our young ones bring their own children. Endless love and gratitude. The Franklin Family, Australia

What a fabulous place to base ourselves for 3 days of exploring the Flinders Ranges! We so enjoyed our time in this cosy and very comfortable wee cottage. The peace and quiet and the interesting walks on the station was just what we needed. Thank you for being excellent hosts & welcoming us so warmly onto your land. We will be back one day to see more of this beautiful and dramatic part of Australia. Many thanks! Clare & Scott Plunkett, New Zealand

Thank you for a wonderful stay! We loved the firepit and the quiet - a very special two nights. Thank you for the recommendation for sunset at Stokes Hill, and the scenic drive - we followed the 'Drive 2' Gorgeous Gorges route from the booklet and saw emus, kangaroos, wallabies and wedge tailed eagles - amazing! We also loved the Mt Ohlssen Bagge hike from Wilpena - a good distance and level of challenge with spectacular views that gave us enough time to do the drive in the afternoon. We'll remember this trip for a long time. Emily and Tom, Guildford - United Kingdom

We really enjoyed staying at the Overseer's Cottage and Willow Springs. Unfortunately we have to move on but would recommend staying here to anyone! We especially enjoyed walks marked out on the property, as we only have a 2WD vehicle, drive up to see the sunset at Stokes Lookout, and being able to look in the woolshed while shearing is on. Thank you Michelle and Carmel who made us feel like visitors, not paying guests. Rod & Brenda Felton, Victoria - Australia

Stockman's Lodge has been truly delightful. So well equipped. Wonderful fire, great views, very hot water. The highlight was the 12km walk. Beware - the gaps between numbers on the map are misleading. The distance between 11 & 12 is about 900m - keep walking until you see the BIG creek bed and then turn right. A very enjoyable experience and a wonderful base from which to see the Flinders Ranges. The Hathaways, London - United Kingdom

Thank you to the Reynolds family for having the insight to share this beautiful land with tourists. Such a beautiful and tranquil place to stay. The cleanliness and detail to make the area look and feel so peaceful, even to the extent of the perfectly raked gravel. Waking up to seeing the sheep meandering nearby, beautiful sunsets and sitting by the campfire. Thank you for the information on where to go for drives and also fabulous to read the history of the property. The last time I was here was around 1982 for Anne Reynolds' wedding and it was lovely to see that even though it is now a tourist destination that it is still unspoilt. Will be back to do the Skytrek and to share with friends. Thankyou Jan & Alberto, Australia
