Merino Guest Farm

The guest house is located on a 650ha farm with an apple orchard, nestled between the As River and sandstone hills. Some of the things to do with us are to walk through nature up the sandstone hills which gives a 360 degree view of the surrounding farms. If the walk looks too far, it is possible to wet a fly fishing line in the river that is full of trout or just to sit down at the river's banks and let the tranquility fill your mind. There are also some tracks that can be followed with a bicycle to explore the farm. If all these activities are too busy for you then bring your binoculars and look for our feathered friends like the turkey ibis, long crested eagle or the bare cheek falcon. In the evenings one falls asleep, not with the noise of cars but the silence of a farm.
