Retired couple who love to travel, but also love to be back in our own home.
We like to keep our home updated so maintenance is a top priority. We stopped for a couple of years before resuming with HomeLink & we don’t always do a consent form, so our 24 exchanges have not been recognised.
Peter is a bike rider who loves anywhere with hills, whilst Jan is into scrapbooking so takes lots of photos.
We strive to keep ourselves fit.

Beskrivelse av vårt nabolag og området rundt
Our neighbourhood is very quiet & our Court is very friendly & only 2kms from town so can either drive in 5 mins. or walk for 20 mins. We have a fantastic walking track of about 5 kms around our great lake which will take an hour to walk & you can stop for a coffee in town if you wish. You will see a lot of wildlife on the lake & the ducks like to be fed & if you are really lucky, you may see a platypus. There are a number of water birds such as spoonbills & pelicans. You will stroll past our beautiful Art Gallery with a coffee shop, the local
swimming pool that has an indoor heated pool & also the brand new library.
There is a Community Centre next to the local Hospital which is just around the corner from home.
We have an Plane Museum at the local airport which also caters for gliding where we have had World Championships. You can go for a glider flight & see the area from above.
There are many restaurants, hotels & take away venues to choose from.
There are 2 Golf courses with one catering for meals & you can sit & watch the kangaroos wandering around the course. There are 3 pokie venues.

Våre tips til steder å gå og ting å gjøre mens du bor i vårt hjem
We have 3 Pokie Venues in town. One at the local Pub, one at the Bowling Club & one at the Golf Club, complete with kangaroos.
An hours drive will have you in Mansfield where "The Man from Snowy River" was filmed. Straight up the Hume Highway is Glenrowen where Ned Kelly had his last stand. Further on is a larger town with plenty of shopping with major shops. You can also access wineries not far away & also the mountains can be accessed for a weekends skiing. There is also
many cycling areas with a rail trail to Beechworth & also many roads in the immediate area that are used daily.
Echuca can be reached in 2 hours as can be Bendigo. Albury is an hour away. We now have the Silo Art Trail to follow which takes you to many small townships in the immediate area & you can also go further if you wish. Benalla has great Wall Art which will take you many hours to walk around. There are also guided walking tours of the Wall Art if required.
