Mr Robinson
Perfect relaxing week away from civilization. A farm vacation is so quiet apart from nature and livestock. Recharged and ready to go now ! No mobile or internet a godsend.

Lovely remote location and ideal for anyone who wants to get away from it all. Beware there are free range chickens with full access to the 'private gardens' meaning you may need to supervise your dog and keep it on a lead at all times. I have a small car and could get down the track to the cottage with no problems, it's a great peaceful getaway.

The cottage was nice but the worry of further damage and cost to our car when coming in and out of the property meant we could relax so ended up returning home the day after arriving. We paid for bed linen and had to hunt for it to make the bed up and discovered that no bottom sheet had been provided so we had to sleep on top of the quilt. The duvet set was washed out and well worn.
