Not really pet friendly
My grandchildren enjoyed the proximity of all the animals and the amenities of the very comfy cottage. We had 3 dogs, as the place is advertised as pet friendly, but the billy goat with horns was threatening and not safe with pets and children - as he kept poking his head through the fence. The baby goats hopped through the fence, which could have fatal for them. Perhaps another fence between cottage and animals would be safer for all.
Privacy was also not great, with tenants (friendly) and their 2 dogs (one not friendly) directly behind the cottage. Expecting to be able to buy firewood at the site was disappointing, as it was all wet. Not the best camping spot - but great for a small family to experience a bit of the country. Gumboots are essential.

Great couple of days at the Duchess Farm, the weather wasn't great but that didn't stop us enjoying the animals and local area (inc. Darling Downs Zoo). Cabin worked well for 2 Adults & 2 children. Definitely booking again in the near future.

Great stay, family loved all the animals and set up. Was great to sit by the fire at night. Our dogs had a ball running around the fully fenced yard.

Awesome wee family getaway
Our stay at Duchess Farms was just great! The animals really made the experience so memorable for our girls and my 5 year old is already asking to go back. The cabin, although small had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. My husband and I spent the evenings around the camp fire taking in the night sky and enjoying the peace and quiet. The sunset views across the farm were incredibly beautiful too.
The host very thoughtfully even arranged for our daughter to be able to take a ride on one of the miniature horses.
The location was great to get away from the hustle and bustle and also to check out the Darling Downs Zoo. Thanks again for having us Damen.

Very quiet and private farm stay experience. Nice and clean cabin. Outdoor toilet is much useful for campers. Fully fenced so my dog ran around freely. Highly recommend for a family especially with young kids to stay for a couple days. They will be loving the farm aniamls! Darling Downs Zoo is only also 15 mins away.

Beautiful farm cabin and night sky
Just got back home from an absolutely amazing stay at this place for our family getaway. Everything was beautiful the cabin, the fire pit, the animals and the open fields at night allowing you to see all the stars, could see the Milky Way. Our kid loved it was good to get away from the screens and technology (there’s still a bit of reception out there) and let the little one just run around and play freely without having to worry about anything. It’s so calm and quiet out there it’s lovely, you feel so detached coming out here from a busy suburban area it’s really relaxing. Animals are all friendly, night sky’s are beautiful, locals are welcoming if you go into the small towns close by. Darling downs zoo only 20mins away which was also a great place.
Definitely coming to stay here again in the future.
