"It was so hot and the highlight after picking some fruit was the pool to cool off. I would however get another mattress for the double bed because that was too hard but despite that it was the getaway we needed."
"Peace and tranquillity and stunning views from every angle"

"Accommodation and setting superb. Unfortunately the directions provided by Safarinow were appalling and we got lost repeatedly. All in all it took an hour to locate the farm using directions that were totally inaccurate."

"What a great little farm, three neat houses, very private and all with beautiful views. We were lucky enough to get there just after the peaches had been picked and were allowed to get any of the leftovers. Perfect for an overnight stop or a weekend away."
