Our ponds are perfect for a peaceful walk. Use of the rowboat is available upon request and entirely at your own responsibility.
Children must remain under the supervision and responsibility of their parents at all times.

We have three cats, a few chickens, one goat, three sheep, various birds, and occasionally frogs and deer. If you are lucky—and knowledgeable—you may even discover some delicious wild mushrooms.

Our cats can be very affectionate and sometimes a little intrusive. If they become a nuisance, please let us know—we will try to negotiate with them on your behalf!
