farm stay memories
homemade bread local produce easy parking
i stayed three nights at this lovely farm. the breakfast offered homemade bread and local produce. sheila welcomed me warmly and made delicious cakes every day, it was a nice touch. parking was easy, very convenient.
the bedroom was a little small, i felt a slight discomfort due to a smaller space for luggage, it was a minor thing.
Rooms

excellent breakfast quiet location clean houses poor dogs
the breakfast was exemplary. the location has excellent views of the mountains and is so quiet.
i found it condescending to think dog owners do not live in clean houses. i hate to write this after such good reviews from people but felt i needed to mention the poor dogs as it was all i could think about, and it did take over the holiday experience as i did find it upsetting.
