Mel and I are people that love challenges in life and embrace all opportunities, like buying this estate in 2014. Moving from the city and not knowing anything about farming and maintaining a country estate we had to learn quickly. Just after settling on the property we discovered the harvest season was just around the corner, so we quickly learnt from neighbouring farmers and key olive people in order to be ready to give the olive harvest a go. With a heap of enthusiasm and the desire to do well, we engage our friends and began to harvest with Gianni, our olive expert at the helm. To compliment our first harvest, we purchased our own Olive Press to ensure pressing olives into extra virgin olive oil could be done within the hour. The results was a cold pressed, robust, peppery extra virgin olive oil that won a bronze medal in its first year at the Australian Olive Association national awards. We followed this up in 2016. From this we felt the grove could still offer more, so in August 2016 a builder and myself began to restore and convert the villa. What was I thinking coming from a corporate background and not knowing a claw hammer from a sledge hammer! (do now!) With a passion for perfection we painstakingly redesigned and rebuilt the villa whilst Mel my wife let her shopping senses go wild, always focusing on quality. As a result we are proud to offer this exclusive villa for that special getaway for couples. We aim to provide guests a high end luxurious stay whilst engaging with natures beauty and its surrounds. The stay may involve a curious stroll around the grove or discussing the processes of running it with me, the farmer or even both. The guest has much on offer with a stroll into town or walking the George Bass Coastal walk with the added benefit of the walking track passing directly out the front of our property. Our guests may want to indulge in the local food and wine trail or maybe a days surfing, followed by the penguins then dinner. There is much on offer and Mel and I will do as much or as little as our guests request. Cheers Justin
