You realise something is different the constant hum of city life is gone and the peace and quiet is something you can really feel. That’s when you notice other, more calming sounds the hens and their little chicks cheep-cheeping around the garden, the goats and sheep, the guinea pigs, and the many different calls from the birds lining the branches of the trees.Sample a true taste of country life, join in feeding the animals with the children, walk hand-in-hand through the fields, watch the wildlife, learn about real people’s lives on a working farm.Our thatched, self-catering, cottage is spacious and sleeps seven. It is clean, cosy and warm with the added attraction of an open fire and a private lapa.
