“Thank you Julie and Tony!”
We love everything about our stay. During farm tour, Tony taught us things I never knew. We did not manage to finish jt due to rain but that is no one’s fault. Our kids loved the farm animals… Molly the pig and Jim the sheep!! They were the first to greet us on the property and were delightful. We got to witness how Tony single-handedly herded the sheep with his pack of ultra smart sheep dogs (from afar) . Julie was lovely, she came to us specially to show us a newborn lamb… too adorable!! The house was warm and comfortable with heated blankets. Just super sad they will be stopping the farmstay but it’s for their well deserved retirement . All the best Tony, Julie, Molly, Jim and all the awesome farm animals!

“Fantastic stay if you want to be close to nature.”
Location was great. very peaceful view of the farm. The Farm tour was very informative. Loved the farm animals. The owners were wonderful and made us very comfortable. Julie picked some fresh vegs from her garden which we used to make a soup, that was awesome. We were also lucky to see the stars on the clear sky last night.

“Wonderful experience !”
We loved the farm tour and meeting the friendly farm animals. The cosy cottage has a spectacular view of the farm with snow capped mountains. The hosts have thought if everything and there are special touches everywhere. Breakfast was fresh and enjoyed with the company of the sheep and resident pig Molly. Our hosts were so lovely and accommodating.

“My family and I loved staying here, and would love to stay again. The optional farm tour is a lovely touch. A lovely war”
Beautiful location - didn’t want to leave. Hot tub was a luxury, enjoyed relaxing in it after dark. Very comfortable beds! Hosts very welcoming. The farm tour was very interesting! Molly the pig is on your doorstep each time you leave, waiting for scraps. The view is breathtaking, snow capped mountains, green fields with sheep - get up to watch the sun come up, you’ll get some great photos!
