A unique experience!! The house was very clean inside, the beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped. Katherine was a great host. We had a very enjoyable stay.
Such a beautiful place….Katherine has been a great host, the place was so cozy and neat! So many cute goats and farm animals around- highly recommended!
Excellent family location for historic locations in the area. The goats and other animals are great fun. Kat is an excellent host.

We had a wonderful time, Kat was lovely and helpful, the property was beautiful and the animals gorgeous. Great place to use as a base to explore the southern flinders.
Looking for a while to break up the drive coming back from Arkaroola and what a surprising find this was.Kids adored all the animals and played with the goats for as long as they could before dark.

A great find in a super quiet and relaxing location. Thoughtful little touches from a lovely host, and it was a delight to interact with the goats and other farm animals on the property.
It was a really good stay after a long day travelling from Coober Pedy.
The kids all loved the animals and couldn’t wait to help Katherine feed them in the morning.
The kids want to come back and check on the kids (baby goats).
Would highly recommend
Comfortable, clean, Kat was a great host.She left fresh eggs and homemade bread for our use. Very thoughtful

We loved feeding the goats and other farm animals. The house was more spacious than we expected and pleasantly unusual. Kat was welcoming and friendly. We had a wonderful stay.
Wonderful stay with at the retreat farm stay. Awesome to wander around the yard with all the farm animals in particular the wonderful goats. Spacious, well equiped accommodation. If you love goats then this is the place to stay.
Arrived a bit later than expected but manager was there to meet us. Overall place is clean and tidy.

Katz Retreat is a lovely place to stay. The house is spacious and comfortable, Kat is very hospitable and it is wonderful to interact with all the animals in the yard.
It's about 20 minutes from Remarkable Ranges National Park. Just note: tap water is not suited for drinking, make sure you bring enough bottled water for drinking and cooking.
Unfortunately we only had one night here. Enough for one glorious sunset and one glorious sunrise. We loved the animals in the pens nearby and loved the fabulous kitchen. The host gave us some great insights into the history and geography of the countryside.
Kat was wonderful to deal with and provided a property perfect for our group with four young children. They loved the space to be outside and the interaction and feeding of the many animals.
Kat has done a wonderful job of setting up the outdoor area for guests to use.
We'll be back again.
