The cottages were originally built around 1850 to accommodate families working on the farm. These traditional cottages were saved from dereliction and rebuilt and refurbished since 1998 to offer modern comfort and convenience. Plumbing and electricity are the most important additions! Each cottage has a main double bedroom and a small single bedroom, a full bathroom, kitchen/dining room and living room with fireplace or stove. Additional beds may be made up in the living room. Each cottage accommodates 3 people comfortably and with additional beds can sleep up to 5. Two adjoining cottages may be combined by opening a downstairs connecting door to sleep 6-8. Cottages are equipped with bed and bath linen, kitchen and dining equipment. Basic provisions are supplied and additional supplies may be bought at the villages nearby, or during harvest season, directly from our farm. The pure, fresh water comes directly from artesian sources. Click here for a photo tour of a cottage ... The views are fantastic.
