About the host
Hosted by Fiona Neal
My name is Fiona and I am a mum of 4. Our family brought The Ranch in November 2023. Having lived overseas for many years in busy cities having a home away from the hussle and bussle with wide open space has always been a dream.
Why they chose this property
Having The Ranch at Salt Ash allows us to have a rural property close to beaches and the city of Newcastle. For us, this is the best of both worlds. Waking up of a morning and seeing the open fields, birds, horses frockling and the occasional kangaroo feels like a breath of fresh air.
What makes this property unique
We want our guest to come to The Ranch and just relax, to breath in the fresh air and let all their worries go. The Ranch is large in size allowing groups of friends or family to come together and enjoy each others company. There is plenty of room to be together in the expansive lounge room, dining room and outside bbq area but also we have gone to great effort to make our bedrooms a place for quiet enjoyment.
