What do you see when you come to Kings Grant Country Retreat?

Do you notice the nature? The 4 birds perched on a log, the contrasting and vibrant pop of colour during aloe season, the carpet of Autumn leaves, the way the water looks like liquid fire at sunset, the smell and touch of a horse?

Part of slowing down can simply mean taking time to notice nature's details and immersing yourself in that beautiful moment. Perhaps capturing it with the lense of your camera, or describing it in a written piece, sitting on a rock in the aloe garden, closing your eyes and listening to the song of birds, painting it, journaling or just being still.

Sometimes we simply need a short break away from our own life for a reset. A place that is in the country, on a farm and where history and nature inspire stillness, contemplation and simple joy.

Slowly but surely we will be developing this part of the farm, the place of the Brickfield; secluded and surrounded by nature, birdlife and water - a deeply peaceful place, perfect for a slow and gentle walk on your own or together with someone.

We've just mowed a short walking track around this part of the farm and will continue to improve the route over time in the way of making it into a smooth single track course. Indigenous trees will be planted and invasive species removed such as bug w**d, lantana and bramble.

In the mean time our horses assist us with 'traffic' on the track and making the route permanent! As usual, these two special horses provide us with endless entertainment, laughs and companionship! Farmlife is as simple as this!
