John Piccoli is a retired farmer living on the property in Boort, North Central Victoria that was selected in 1876 by his grandfather. John has worked the farm all his life and he has become known as "The Spanner Man" while developing unique spanner sculptures that are displayed at the property. The antique spanners have been sourced from far and wide and provide an interesting story and history from around the world. Old spanners are very collectible, many were hand forged as an essential tool for repairing equipment. Early spanners were purpose-designed to suit farm equipment such as ploughs, discs, drays, gigs, headers, seeders and tractors also cars and trucks. John has also restored machinery. Please enjoy

Camped two nights and although it is basically intended for self-contained caravans, Ian (the owner) will try to provide power. There is a toilet available as well. Ian and Marilyn are very friendly and welcoming owners of the property and take great pride in their bedding manufacturing and Simply Tomato operations. Coffee and tea are available and you can use the BBQ in the huge undercover room. "Cheeky Boy" is someone you have to meet. Will definitely visit again. By the way, the sheep near the dam are very placid and won't run away when you approach, unlike the geese.
