Qualinup

This is a hosted stay through Hipcamp, below is the information provided by the Host regarding their offering.

Qualinup is an old location which was originally used for summer grazing for sheep farmers near Borden who walk the sheep down the 100kms for summer because of the constant water supply and feed available. Qualinup’s meaning is place of Emu and the farm is located on the eastern side of the old dog proof fence and still has a pristine wetland. Numerous owners over the years have tried different farming practises, however since 1993 the farm has been following organic sustainable practises, currently grazing Boer goats which we originally introduced for weed control. Over the years since 1993 the farm has produced certified seed potatoes, cut flowers, trial wine grape vineyard, run outside coloured pigs to name a few enterprises however the vast underground water supply from limestone lends the farm to intensive agriculture, especially given its close proximity to the coast with the southern ocean limiting frost damage. With considerably less rainfall they Perth and some amazing clear warm days without wind winter camping around the fire definitely possible.
