Individual attention
 Children a specialty
Safe supervision
Adopt a miniature horse
(or a donkey, cow, dog, cat, chicken or duck - it's all been done!) - is a big feature of the holiday opportunity at Chamel Fields.  Guests can get as involved as age and interest determines - just call a horse 'yours' or get involved in its training. 

Chamel Fields is a small cottage farm nestled in the south end of Kuitpo Forest, 50 min south of Adelaide.  Guests can come for a quiet cosy country retreat, or use Chamel Fields as a base from which to explore the local wineries, Mt Compass Produce Trail, the Heysen trail across the road through  Kuitpo Forest, enjoy McLaren Vale eateries, go over to Strathalbyn 20 min away, down to Victor Harbor and Goolwa just a 1/2 hour south or make your way down to the beach at Aldinga, 20 minutes west.

REALLY BIG NEWS!
It is with great excitement that we announce that within a few months, the lovely big wooden Barn will be ready and able to function as a conference centre with accommodation!  It has been a 10 year project and is finally almost here.  When not being used for conferences, it will double as accommodation for larger groups visiting for a farmstay.  So, if you have a conference in mind, or a large family occasion, keep Chamel Fields in mind.  Photos will be available as each area is finished.
BABY NEWS
The horse babies are now growing well with the first 2 weaned.  The three boys are handsome fellas and the two little girls real cuties. ( see them on the Sales page)
We are now watching this years mums looking more and more pregnant every day.  It is always an exciting time for Judith, who often takes her midwifery role so seriously that she sleeps out in the stables with them when they are due!  And guests have been known to join her too!
The cows are enjoying the attention of a visiting bull, so little mooos as well as little whinnies are expected by next Summer as well.

Final Farewell to Chloe
It is now 4 months since Chloe died, and she is still greatly missed.  Judith spent a few minutes going through some photos of her and her friends to share with those who knew and loved her.



  
                              
She was a good friend to all, human, animal and bird alike. She loved attention and never let her 3 legged status slow her down.
We hope she is running around the heavenly paddocks on 4 legs now with her friend Lucy close behind.

Many family members and friends have commented on the absence of photos of Judith on this website.  As I am most often behind the camera, there aren't many, but I found a few which I hope will do.
