Relaxing stay

Lovely relaxing stay in a comfortable home. We loved and enjoyed the deck which has an amazing view. The property is very clean and comfortable for us and 2 children. Unfortunately the dishwasher didn’t work during our stay but this was a small issue. I’m sure will be rectified. The fencing is definitely not totally secure with large gaps in multiple places. This wasn’t an issue for us as our dogs don’t wander but could be if you have small dogs or ones that need secure fencing. We really enjoyed the fire pit area (which is a short walk up the driveway from the house). The kids loved the cattle as well (be mindful of electric fencing in some areas). Overall we really enjoyed it and a dose of quiet and nature was lovely.
