Wonderful week with family.

It was a wonderful way to spend the week with the family. A beautiful location. The facilities were fantastic. The Alpacas and sheep are great for kids of all ages (even us big kids). Loved the fire and the provision of wood. The kitchen and laundry had everything you need. Would definitely recommend and book again.
