25.01.2022 A recent guest who stayed at the beautiful Kadlunga Cottage left us an amazing review: The house was just beautiful - so relaxing. The highlight of our stay was having a glass of Clare Valley wine on the deck watching the sun set amongst the vineyards. We thoroughly enjoyed all the little touches to make our stay even better. (Pikes wine and complimentary breakfast). The house was immaculately clean prior to our arrival. In addition, there was every utensil and basic cookin...g items we needed. We will most certainly we will be coming back and recommending this house to friends and family. Thanks again Sophie!

04.01.2022 Awesome photo taken by our harvest contractor, Grant Jaeschke, of our Bannister oats being harvested at our Kadlunga property in SA last week. Fun facts about Bannister oats: They are a high yielding, mid-season maturing tall dwarf oat variety. The Bannister variety offers an improved disease resistance compared to other varieties.... This variety is potentially a good milling grain. Our stock also think they are pretty delicious! #Harvest #BannisterOats #Kadlunga #CollinsvilleStudMerinos #ProfitableSheep

02.01.2022 EAST BUNGAREE JOINS FORCES WITH COLLINSVILLE East Bungaree has been sold in its entirety to Collinsville Stud Merinos making the union of the two the largest volume Merino and Poll Merino breeders of Australia. We wish to highlight that Collinsville and East Bungaree Studs will remain separate with normal continuity of respective bloodlines and management while under new ownership. The combination of East Bungaree and Collinsville Merino Studs will bring collective experienc...e, knowledge and long-lasting, profitable bloodlines to the Merino and Poll Merino Industry. This opportunity will further enable us to be of scale and specialisation to meet the needs of our customers both large and small into the future. Sheep from both studs will be the same. Nothing will change moving forward in terms of how we run both studs. We are pleased that Tony Brooks, from East Bungaree, will continue to be actively working with the East Bungaree stud and sheep as the key person involved in selection and breeding of the stud bloodlines.
