Originally revolving around sisters Tess and Claire, and their property 'Drovers Run’.

"The filming location is actually on a property owned by the TV station (Channel Nine), called Kingsford, and is only just outside of Gawler in South Australia..."

It's 15km south-west of Freeling. Most of the roads around Freeling, Kapunda, Bethel, etc. don't have names. I might be able to get you a better fix on the location from a bloke in Gawler. His grandkids live on a farm between Freeling and Kapunda, and have appeared on the set as extras. Looking at this article, the exact location may be a "local secret", as it's off-bounds to the public.
Freeling is a quaint rural town with many historical buildings. You can wander the heritage streets at leisure, or follow the walking trail and learn about Freeling’s rich farming history.
But a growing number of visitors are heading straight for the Gungellan Hotel - as seen by fans of TV series McLeod’s Daughters in some 100 countries. The pub and streets of Freeling feature regularly in the McLeod shooting schedules, with nearby Kapunda and Roseworthy occasionally being called into the action. The proprietors of the Gungellan Hotel (formerly The Railway) are well used to answering questions from the series’ many fans; souvenirs are available to purchase.
If you’re wondering, the McLeod’s station ‘Drover’s Run’ lies some 15 kilometres to the south-west. It’s a real property called Kingsford, currently owned by Channel 9, entirely given over to production and off limits to the public. The local countryside, however is one of the major stars of the show - and free for everyone to enjoy.
