The Double Room with Garden View was spacious and comfortable, with heavy covers that made for cozy nights. Loved the ability to open the windows for fresh air and stunning views across the fields.

Getting to the place was a bit of an adventure with those winding, narrow roads that made it challenging to navigate in our big car. we faced a flooded entry point on our first day, forcing us to find a last-minute place to stay until the water receded. not ideal when you're ready to kick back and relax after a long journey.

flooded entry

narrow roads

what a disappointment! the winding roads to this farm were a nightmare, and the flooded entry was simply unacceptable. i also expected to be treated like royalty but was met with stairs that were manageable, if you can believe that. i thought i woudl ve received a complimentary gift for all the trouble, but guess i was wrong.

breathtaking views

Couples seeking seclusion

Our stay was truly remarkable. Judith went above and beyond by preparing a special vegetarian sausage just for us at breakfast! the views from our room were breathtaking and made every moment worthwhile.

It wasn't exactly economical, but for what we got, I'd say it was fair.

Lovely getaway with great views

Really enjoyed the stay! The garden swing was a hit with the kids, and those views were just beautiful. We had a great time exploring the picnic area too. Don’t forget to book nearby restaurants in advance, though. it gets busy. The roads getting there are a bit tricky, especially if you're not used to winding turns.

I had an amazing stay here! The breakfast was fantastic, especially the homemade sausages, and the view from the room was absolutely breathtaking. We did face a bit of trouble with the winding roads to get here, but it was well worth it!

Had a wonderful stay! ! The breakfast was good, especially the homemade sausages, they were simply fantastic. Judith went the extra mile by drying our wet walking boots. It was just the right touch after a long day out in the rain.

It wasn't inexpensive but worth it.
