The Local Community: Oberon is a small community of 3000 residents. It is in the Central Tablelands region of NSW. Our main industries are farming, forestry and wood products. Kenzell Farm is over 1200m and Mckeowns Rest is the name the accommodation for the luxury farm house. We are on the fringe of the Greater Blue Mountains and enjoy four distinct seasons. Our elevation is 1113m so we experience snow falls in winter. The district is surrounded by pine forest and wilderness, making it ideal for campers and adventurers.
The Farmers Note: Sharing experiences with my guests. I see it as a privilege to be able to give people glimpses of what its is like to grow upon a farm. It is also fantastic to have opportunities to explain where our food comes from and what is involved in getting it from paddock to plate. The other side is seeing the sheer joy on faces when they are able see, hold, touch and brush the farm animals. We have also had very lucky guests witness farm animal births.
Things To Do: Time at the property can be spent inside relaxing in the spacious living areas whether it be playing games or reading a book. There is an indoor pool for people to enjoy also. 250 acres makes for plenty of space to go for walks and take in the stunning views of the Blue Mountains escarpment or the magical creek that flows through the farm. During your stay we have a multitude of hands on farm experiences for guests to enjoy including spending time with the alpacas, camels, wombats and collecting newly laid eggs by the chickens! Cattle, calves and lambs all make up the exciting mix of opportunities to enjoy a working farm stay in a beautiful open environment surrounded by rolling hills. We offer everything from 4wd tracks, mountain bike trails, bushwalking, foraging for mushrooms, fishing, horse riding and farm tours.

Jacqui Harman

I am a fourth-generation farmer whose love for all things farming and animals comes from both my parents multigenerational farming background. I took over part of the farm in 2019, creating a home for an abundance of different animals. My background as a teacher sees me wanting to inform visitors of the benefits of sustainable living, engaging in agriculture and developing connectedness to country in an inclusive and supportive environment.
