    Beautiful, dog-friendly secluded farm stay, great location, lots of walks both right at the doorstep or short drive away. Starry skies at night are simply breathtaking, thanks to low levels of light pollution. Compact but very well-equipped kitchen (we prefer to cook our own food, and it had everything one would need), as an added bonus - complimentary bottle of chardonnay and fresh milk on arrival. Cottage is clean, warm and cozy, bed is comfortable, hairdryer, iron and ironing board provided. We really enjoyed our stay, would definitely recommend.
