SARA STEVENSON
We spent 3 nights here & thoroughly had a relaxing time. Ian and Nikki are so welcoming & provided support throughout our stay. Ian got in touch as soon as we booked, which I thought was great customer service, and answered any questions I had about the local area. He also messaged before our holiday was due to start with directions and telephone numbers. The cabin was so comfortable & had everything we needed. The goats were particularly entertaining on our last night, releasing the handbrake on the mini tractor! And yes, good advice from Ian, FLAT palm when feeding the donkeys!!! Thank you to Ian & Nikki for welcoming us in to your cabin and farm.

A great place to stay. Totally dog friendly and a very relaxed atmosphere. The animals are great and Ian and his family are so welcoming. We got to feed the lambs which was brilliant. We will definitely be booking again! It’s a 5⭐️ from us!
