This place is the perfect getaway. It was a memorable stay, and we felt right at home –it was rainy and cold, yet we had everything needed to keep us entertained, warm and comfy.

From the moment I enquired about the place until the day I checked out, Juanita was so friendly and responsive. The place is serene and definitely worth the stay. Peaceful surroundings, with a massive front lawn that is very kid and dog friendly! The little add ons were well received such as an ice machine, golf clubs and balls, etc. I would definitely recommend it and cannot wait to visit again.

Evening Rise Guest Farm

RichardRating, 5 stars5 months ago

Although the cottage lacks the usual mod-cons, such as wi-fi and showers, it was comfortable and made an ideal base for walking. (We did like soaking in the bath). We enjoyed our rest—reading, puzzling and walking in the beautiful hills and along the valley. There were a lot of flies - bring insect repellent - and the fact that it rained most of the time made the thatch musty. We want to return in the winter for another rest...
