Spent a family week at the lodge everything was good we mainly had arrival dealings with Christina who was extremely helpful. We all felt being on a farm there would be more noise but it was generally peaceful and quiet. We found a couple of local restaurants and also returned to restaurants we have been to before. Again we was lucky with the weather the lodge was relaxing and I would definitely recommend the Hardy lodge.

What an amazing property. To be totally honest, we have stayed in many different properties but this is superior to anything.My only concern was nothing. The farm is a working farm but when we asked about watching milking etc, it was amazing.Be prepared to be a long way from amenities but that is part of this amazing experience.A bonus for me personally that Rob son of the owners helped me with an issue I had.A credit to his parents. Thank you.
