Thank you so much for your hospitality! We really loved playing with and feeding those pets of yours (Nikki, Tess, Penny, Annie, Sam, Franny, Innie, Bess, Fred, Bugget, Boxhead, Billy and Moo). Thanks for taking us out to the dairy and kangaroo spotting as well! It’s a really lovely place you have here and we really made many memories – wonderful ones of Australia and farm life to bring back to Singapore. If ever you do come, drop by and we’ll bring you to see the sights (cable cars to Sentusa, the Meriron, 80% humidity!! and whatever else you may have heard of our country). Once again, thank you for everything. We may meet again when we young ones come back for travel with our friends and we’ll be sure to have the Aussie – BBQ!. Much love J PS We’ll miss all of you!

Frank Kerry Sam Sienna and Flynn, Melbourne Aug. 2011
Thank you so much for such a fantastic holiday at your lovely farmstay. Your hospitality was amazing, we felt like family whilst we were here and you really made us feel so welcome. Our six year old son and four year old daughter took such delight in putting on their boots and winter coats and heading up to feed all the farm animals each day. In addition to the amazing experience of “hands on feeding” we were fortunate to experience Dora at her final stages of pregnancy. The farm house itself was so welcoming, spacious, comfortable and authentic. The view from the farmstay is second to none, absolutely beautiful. The farmstay was in a great position to be able to comfortably drive to several other attractions nearby. This has been such an enjoyable and memorable week for us all as a family. We can’t wait to come back again!
Frank Kerry Sam Sienna and Flynn, Melbourne July 2011
This is the best place ever, thank you so much for your hospitality, it was fantastic. Gillespie family, Melbourne July 2011
Dear Wendy and Warren, What else can we say? A BIG THANKYOU certainly is less than adequate …. “WE LOVE YOU” ! During the stay, we could really feel the warmth and hospitality showered to each and every member of the family. No one was being left out, despite we have a total of six of us. Appreciate your assistance rendered to us, making our trip such a wonderful and fruitful one. We believe our trip will not be a complete one without visiting to your farm. We are sure our little “monsters” enjoying every moment of opportunity mingling with the pets in the farm too; especially Nikki and Penny. They have even requested to mummy and daddy they would not want to go home. We’ll be back.

The children had an amazing time on your farm and will surely miss the big open spaces, the animals, your trampoline and the cows outside their window when they get home! If only our stay was for a little longer …J For us, the good experiences with you began even before our arrival; when we first started communicating with Wendy about our trip and it just kept getting better! Thank you for your efforts in making us feel so at home and comfortable – the little ones, as well as the “old” folk had loads to do and enjoyed every minute…. We also loved Wendy’s soup, the pavlova and the freshly caught yabbies! Thank you again and again! We pray for the continued success of Bellevue Farmstay – God Bless.

Thanks Wendy for your fantastic hospitality. We really enjoyed our stay here. The kids really enjoyed the farm animals, especially Nikki and Sapphire. Sabina is very taken with your dogs. I think they all enjoyed coming up close with the other animals as well although like you say, being older would be better for them to come again. You’ve been great! Thank you once again. If you drop by Melbourne do come by our place for a meal. Lim Family, Melbourne Dec 2010
Thank you. Lovely to watch the koala. Thank you for hosting us on your lovely farm. Most of all, your warmth and personal touch has impress me.

Please send our regards to your little friends as well. Especially to “super dog” Sapphire!! Chee Peng Cchua and family Nov. 2010
While it was a bit wet, that didn’t stop us from having some fun, getting dirty and relaxing by the fire. We are certain that Oliver will have lots of great memories and will tell everyone about his experiences on this farm. We will have to get our own “Moo the Cow” for Oliver to feed but I’m not sure if we can fit it in Northcote! Thanks for your hospitality, Brooke, Simon and Oliver Nov. 2011
Thank you so much for hosting us and being such kind welcoming hosts. We really enjoyed our time here, even though it was only a few days.

Thanks for holding all of us at this farm. It is really fun! Really love playing with Sapphire and Penny and feeding Dora and Moo. I will never forget my ride on the Quad Bike. I even got to ride it myself! The dinners and breakfasts are delicious, great, tasty and wonderful. Like the ride to the dairy farm, watching the cows being milked.
Must say I lost my appetite when I saw the cows poo and pee. I’ll miss lovely Penny, playful Sapphire, adorable Dora and mooing Moo. Anyway, thanks again Uncle Warren and Aunty Wendy. K.I.T.

Teng, Stanley, Jay, Ray and Grandma. Singapore, May 2010.
Many many thanks for your great help through the emails, even before we got here at Bellevue. We could not have successfully planned and executed such a fruitful trip without your kind assistance. Although our stay here is relatively short we were able to appreciate life outside the city. Thankyou for the little tours, we have come to learn quite a bit about animals and are extremely encouraged by your love for animals. We had the privilege to be your guests and Im sure the animals are equally elated to have you as owners.
Benjamin and friends, Singapore, May 2010.
Thankyou so much for your warm hospitality. This stay and this farm is really awesome. Your dinner is delicious. I am going to miss Sapphire and I bet she will miss my belly-rub too. I will definitely remember my debut ride on the motorbike. Do contact us when you guys come over to Singapore. You have really played a wonderful host, from the time before we came over, to the last day of our stay. We will definitely miss you guys and all the animals.
Angie & Serene, Singapore. May 2010.
Thanks so much for your hospitality and every little thing you have done, we enjoyed staying at your BIG house. We loved the visit to the dairy and it was really educational and interesting. We will definitely miss both of you, your farmstay and of course Sapphire when we return to Hong Kong. Although I still do not know how to distinguish between a sheep, goat and a lamb I will definitely remember what Sam, Acca and Dora look like. And thanks again for letting us feed your pets and cattle, such an unforgettable experience.
Linda and Eric, Hong Kong. April 2010.
Thankyou both so much for making us feel so welcome and allowing us to share your wonderful home! We have had such a wonderful time feeding the animals, flying kites, riding bikes (particularly the quad bike) and just generally relaxing. We will tell all our friends about you and we will be back to find those kangaroos!
Mia, Andrew, Ella, Madeline and Hannah, Melbourne April 2010.
The farm is great! I wish I could stay 4ever! Sapphire was a good dog. The best part of the stay was the bike. Bellevue Farm is awesome.

Wendy and Warren and Sapphire. Thanks for hosting us at this wonderful Bellevue Farmstay cottage. The loveliest place to be and you are the best host. We all got fantastic customer service!!! Everything like you’ve mentioned in your emails and phone calls are here. We lacked nothing. It’s really a home away from our homes in Melbourne. This is a great place! We all enjoyed our stay here. We feel so welcome and the girls loved their little tours and swimming pool. We are really surprised to find your kitchen so well equipped. Thank you very much and please keep in touch. Thank you with love…

Thank you for making our first Farmstay a wonderful experience!! We’re impressed by the level and quality of your hospitality. We’re especially privileged to have had the chance to stay in your former home – it’s home away from home for us! Thank you for taking the time to show us around Bellevue, Timboon and beyond. Your touring recommendations were excellent! The children have gained so much over the weekend which we’re sure will last them for a long time to come. We’ll miss the animals (Dora, Sapphire, Penny, Franny, Winnie and even Sam!) do let us know when the mummy alpaca has her little one. We leave with beautiful memories of Bellevue farm.

Thank you very much for your hospitality. The warmth and kindness you both have shown to me and my family, especially the boys while we were here. The scenery, fresh air, farm animals, pets and the experience of being in an authentic Australian farm is priceless. I will definitely recommend this place to all my friends and the rest of my family. Thank you for driving me and my family around when I was ill and I am so very sorry about the mozzy frame. We’re gonna miss Sapphire, Dora, Sam, Akka, Franny and Bruiser. We also like playing in the playground, it was fun. Next time, if we come back here, give us a picture of the baby alpaca.
