Meet your hosts

Meet Susie and Michael, who run this 2500-hectare working farm property with two luxury accommodations.

They reside in the over 110 year old Bloomfield homestead.

Property owners, Susie and Michael, when you book a group farm tour, they can’t wait to show you around.

Working family farm

28 gates property runs 10000  Merino and White Suffolk sheep, for fine Tasmanian wool and also for free-range grass-fed lamb. The property is also complemented by 600 acres of irrigation for fodder crops, and it now leases land for pine trees to support carbon sequestration.

Staying on a working farm means a variety of unique experiences are right on your doorstep. Depending on what’s happening on the property, you might be able to watch on. Learn more about our 7th generation property on our history page.

Explore our two unique accommodations

28 gates

The simple façade of 28 gates hides a secret luxury experience within. Still simple, the interior luxury lies with pure quality and understated beauty - a reflection of the landscape outside. Polished floors made from Tasmanian timbers, comfortable leather sofas, the finest bed linen, cosy wood-fire and a free-standing bath looking out to a country sky which would astound weary shearers and delight discerning travellers.

Circus key

Overlooking the picturesque Circus Lake, our architecturally designed Circus key is crafted from timber and stone sourced directly from the property. Set among rolling countryside and sweeping rural views, it offers the rare pleasure of fishing just steps from your door.
