This working homestead sits on reclaimed coal strip mine land that has been thoughtfully restored into an ecologically vibrant property. Guests will encounter Scottish Highland cattle, sheep, goats, alpacas, and ducks, along with abundant wildlife including deer, turkeys, and diverse bird species—including three types of owl whose calls add to the evening atmosphere. The on-site farm store showcases an impressive selection of handmade natural products, from soaps and lip balms to candles and salves, all crafted with care and packaged beautifully. The property offers ample, quiet parking with multiple placement options, allowing visitors to choose their level of seclusion—from designated spots near the farm to secluded field parking surrounded by trees. Guests consistently praise the peaceful, restorative atmosphere and dark skies ideal for stargazing, making this an ideal retreat for those seeking solitude and connection with nature. The surrounding landscape offers beautiful country drives and opportunities for nearby outdoor recreation. Visitors can deepen their experience through two guided tour options: a Junior Farmer tour focused on meeting the animals and exploring farm features like the greenhouse, or a Sustainability tour diving into the technical aspects of livestock management, solar systems, and rainwater collection. Many guests return to the farm store multiple times during their stay, discovering new handmade products and supporting the homestead's commitment to ecological restoration and sustainable living.
