Ocean Farm consists of 180 acres of grazing and dairy farming land. The land is farmed by the Miller family, who have lived in the area for nearly 200 years, while the farm is owned by the Burrell family, who purchased the property in 1983. The current house was commissioned by Sir Raymond Burrell and his wife, Lady Burrell, in 1983 and was designed and built by renowned Sydney architect, Espie Dodds. The farm has been run and managed by Drew Burrell since 2005.

GUEST REVIEWS:

Picturesque, Beautiful, and a hidden oasis. We did not want to leave this place. Thanks, Drew, for allowing us to stay in your amazing home. We booked in-house massages, which were just icing on the cake. I will definitely be back! KRISH (Air Bnb) ★★★★★

This place is amazing!! The view alone is spectacular. Drew was very easy to communicate with, and the manager was always at the end of the phone to assist. I could not have asked for anything more. It was the perfect place to escape from the world in your own little piece of paradise. I can’t wait to get back down for another break. TARA (Air BnB) ★★★★★

Drew’s place was amazing! The property is secluded from the town, which is only a stone's throw away, but very private. The views are breathtaking from the stars throughout the night to sunrise. I’ve never seen anything like it. Stunning!!
If you want to reconnect to the world with such a laid-back vibe, relaxing nature, and a private place with views that will last a lifetime, then please go here. It’s truly a slice of heaven. Drew and his team were amazing hosts, they were very helpful and great to deal with. JOHN (Air BnB) ★★★★★

Ocean Farm is arguably one of the most picturesque settings you will ever come across. Set amongst rolling lush green hills with the ocean as a backdrop, the views are mesmerising. As soon as you enter the driveway, you will quickly come to realise that you made the right decision coming to Ocean Farm. CHRIS (Air BnB) ★★★★★

I am a nice professional guy who has had experience renting a couple of high-end properties to vacationers for the past few years. I am into cycling (cliche I know), surfing and good eating. You will only see me when you arrive...and that's about it. I am quick to respond via text, phone or email so let me know if you have any problems. See (Website hidden by Airbnb) to look at the other place I own and manage - plenty of references there.
