We spent New Year at this place on the hill. The views are magnificent and the bedrooms are comfortable. The walk around the farm is really pretty and we had our dogs with us.
The last stretch of road is uneven and a small or low car would’ve battled to get up the hill.
The quiet and lack of tv and city noises makes the place the ideal spot to relax and check out.
The caretaker is very friendly and helpful and we phoned him when we had questions or needed firewood.
The cottage is quite well equipped but there weren’t enough wine glasses for the six of us. It rained and then we were stuck inside as even the piece of covered patio gets very wet.Nevertheless, it was a peaceful weekend away and the captivating view and night noises are worth the trip.
It’s certainly off the beaten track, loved the location and if we go there again, will take mountain bikes along and books to read outside.
The electric fence around the cottage doesn’t work but we felt safe.
