The venue
Previous shoots have used the woolshed, horse carriages, gardens and homestead, and some of the people who work on the property. Apart from a modern sunroom at the back, the homestead looks much as it did 150 years ago. Lockyersleigh is also a working farm run by the Onions family, descendants of the Ranken family who have owned it since 1856. It produces Angus cattle, first cross lambs, merino wool and grain, and offers rural consultancy.
