About the host

Hosted by Jenny Schiller

Hi, I'm Jenny.
My husband and I have a broad acre farming property with wheat and sheep in the Riverland near Waikerie.
I am a retired Midwife and a keen horse woman with my own Australian Stock Horses.
We love travelling and meeting new people and sharing our own cottages with travellers.

Why they chose this property

This cottage while being around 100 years old has just been renovated and is fresh and clean and a delight to the weary traveller.
Comfy beds, sofas and large flat screen TV.
New appliances and a cosy fire to warm you while you relax.

What makes this property unique

This cottage has a great view of the Waikerie Valley from the balcony veranda. Spend a morning with your coffee and a book, or your evening with a glass of wine and relax.
You only have to step out of the property and you are in the heart of the town.
A great place to explore the Riverland and all that it has to offer.
