Our story
A home in the valley.
A story rooted in the land.
Meet The Vale Bed & Breakfast and the people behind its farm-stay beginnings.
Lin & John Quinlivan
Welcome to
The Vale.
The Vale grew from Lin and John Quinlivan’s family home at Jonlin Park in the Swan Valley.
Their original interest in the property was tied to a love of thoroughbred horses. Over time, the arrival of the Swan Valley Cuddly Animal Farm brought a new chapter to life on the property.
With their children grown, Lin and John opened their home to guests through The Vale Bed & Breakfast. Private accommodation and the farm setting became the basis of a different kind of Swan Valley stay.
Life at The Vale
