About the host
Hosted by Sharona king
I grew up in Flemington, Victoria. The home of horse racing.
I have worked or been involved in horse racing all my life.
Although I love racing,
I will forever be that girl, that loves the horse more than the sport.

What makes this property unique
The liveable barn which adjoins onto our lovely horse stables, makes you feel like an equine enthusiast! Even if horses aren't you thing!
You will find horses living in paddocks around the barn and the calmness you feel from being around and in the presence of this majestic animal is somewhat soothing to the mind.
