Shire Horse Farm & Cobb & Co Wagon Tour offers an extraordinary glimpse into Australia’s rural history and charming countryside in the heart of the region. Located in a picturesque setting, this farm immerses visitors in the world of traditional horse-drawn transport and local culinary delights. The farm's star attractions are its majestic shire horses, and guests can enjoy a leisurely ride aboard vintage wagons that take them through lush pastures and historic farm landscapes. These broad, powerful draft horses are not only a stunning sight but have deep roots in local history, once essential for farming and transport across the region.
The tour includes two unique dining experiences tied to the farm’s heritage. Guests can choose between a hearty Drovers Lunch, reminiscent of meals that fed cattle herders and travelers, or a light Morning Tea served amidst scenic views. Each session lasts 2.5 hours, perfectly balanced to allow visitors to relax, learn, and savor the flavors of authentic regional cuisine. The farm promotes sustainable practices, ensuring that feedstock and land management support local ecosystems.
Beyond the rides and food, the farm offers a chance to connect with Australia’s rustic past, making it a standout destination for families, history buffs, and outdoor enthusiasts.
