Your Furry Friends Are Our Guests Too
Corella is a home away from home for your pets too. We appreciate that pets are integral family members and are thrilled to host them at our farm stay in QLD. We offer expansive spaces for your furry friends to enjoy, but for the safety and harmony of our farm animals and wildlife, we do require all pets to be kept on a leash at all times. Please note, pet owners will be held accountable for their pets’ conduct.
Note: Our kelpie Ziggy is a working dog and is also free ranging for guest experiences and entertainment. He is fully vaccinated and a very gentle soul.
What Our Guests Say About Corella and Our Hospitality
“A true outback experience, amazing sunset over the endless plains when we stayed. Animals and poultry in the yard and surrounds, especially the friendly dog, Ziggy. Not a city standard of stay, but very comfortable and clean. Georgina and Eric were very hospitable. We recommend adding dinner to your stay, it was good value and the conversation with our hosts and the campers very entertaining. Georgina also is a wildlife carer so feeding the orphaned kangaroos was an unexpected bonus.”
““a unique real outback regional experience and great to appreciate the history. I liked the interactions with the animals as they meandered around the house, Also a good chance to unwind after a long drive.”
“We stayed at Corella Creek over Christmas as a family with 2 young children. We all loved our stay. It was so relaxing, just the perfect place for a quiet Christmas together. The kids loved the animals, and Georgi looked after us as if we were family, it was just wonderful.”
“What a gem. Hosts are delightful, so welcoming! Farm is rustic but toilet/showers/bath clean. Lots of animals for the kids to play with/watch,outdoor artesian hot water baths are Divine!”
