It is recommended
Mount Gnomon Farm is a working farm stay in the hills above Penguin, offering distinctive accommodation from a geodesic dome to a converted barn, alongside farm tours and paddocks of animals. Dogs are welcome on request, which makes it a genuine option for travellers who want a rural base rather than a standard motel room.
The pet policy. Pets, including dogs, are allowed by request and usually at no extra charge. Public listings do not spell out size or breed limits, which suggests bookings are handled case by case. Because this is a farm with livestock, it is worth being upfront about your dog and asking how they manage dogs around the animals when you enquire.
The place. The property leans into its farm setting, with accommodation options that have included a dome, a large barn space and cosy rooms, plus an outdoor bath, farm tours and paddocks of animals. It doubles as a wedding and events venue, so the grounds are spacious.
Before you book. Contact the farm directly after booking to confirm which room suits a dog and to lock in the pet arrangement for your dates. Ask specifically about keeping your dog under control near the farm animals, since that will shape where you can walk them on site.

Good for owners after a rural, hands-on stay who are happy to check in with the hosts and keep a steady eye on their dog around livestock.
