Beautiful location. Comfortable room. So great to be out in the countryside amongst all the sheep. Love those sheep. And the horses at the property were fun to visit with. Would definitely recommend this place.

Lovely and quiet property. Had everything we needed to cook including oil. Very clean and nice. Would have been a good place to see the Aurora since it is out of town but unfortunately we did not. Would definitely recommend.

Stayed 3 nights and lovely, warm, comfortable. Good kitchen facilities but a microwave would be handy. No bath soap or shampoo provided which is unusual as had to buy shampoo.
Wonderful views. Can be noisy from footsteps in other units as line of 5 but most people quiet by 1030ish.

A little disappointed unfortunately
I booked this place based on the reviews, but my experience was different. First, never receive an email about self-check-in on the day of arrival, so had to call (a long distance call by cellphone) the owner. Second, the noise was carried between the walls, could hear shower, footsteps and voices. It was clean and beds were okay.

Wonderful views. Warm and comfortable apartment in the guesthouse. Kitchen facilities fine. When the sun is out lovely to sit outside. Comfortable bed, hot shower.
Even some books supplied.
As ever the only thing is noise from other apartments as the 5 are in one line so heavy walking vibrates the flooring. As long as people go to bed at a reasonable time and don't get up too early not too much of an issue.
