  • You Moved Where?! - Ellie, Dave & Violet
    Jul 3 2024

    Ever heard of a house having such pervasive powers? Well for Ellie, Dave and Violet, it was indeed a picture perfect house on the banks of the Snowy River that saw them picking up their life in Canberra to move to Dalgety.

    Like many who embark on a tree change, the transition was not without its challenges. The enthusiastic trio had to navigate issues with water supply, childcare, and their careers. Yet, every bit of effort has been worthwhile, as they now enjoy the serenity of their magical homestead, relaxing under the shade of the strawberry tree.

    We would like to acknowledge the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as the traditional custodians of the land and pay respects to Elders past and present.

  • You Moved Where?! - Astrid Volzke & Perin Mulcahy
    Jun 26 2024

    Astrid Volzke, a press photographer, and Perin Mulcahy, a marketing professional, loved their big city jobs in Perth. However, as life would have it

    they found themselves living in regional Western Australia, in tiny towns with less than 300 people, working in unfamiliar fields.


    Astrid moved to Darkan in the wheatbelt, surrounded by wildflowers, rivers, and lakes. Perin relocated 150 kilometers away to Cranbrook, framed by the Stirling Range mountains and dotted with lakes.


    Though they left behind busy lives and big jobs, they now feel content and connected in their new communities, which offer boundless opportunities and an exceptional quality of life.


    We would like to acknowledge the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as the traditional custodians of the land and pay respects to Elders

    past and present.

  • You Moved Where?! - Edwina Bartholomew & Neil Varcoe
    Jun 19 2024

    Have you ever made a major life decision on a complete whim? That's exactly what Edwina Bartholomew and Neil Varcoe did when they drove through the charming town of Carcoar and decided to buy the local pub.

    Balancing Edwina's presenting job on Channel 7's Sunrise and Neil's crash course in renovations wasn't easy, but the warm welcome from the locals made it all worthwhile. Today, they own and operate Saltash Farm, a boutique hotel in the town that time forgot.
