We spent two nights in this peaceful retreat. The place is beautiful and relaxing. Great for hiking. The house is well-equipped and very clean. The nice surprise was the eggs from the chicken coop offered by Nicole... :-) excellent... I also thank Nicole for her warm welcome and her speed in answering my questions. We'll be happy to go back. I would highly recommend it.

The Farmhouse is a character-filled, spacious and comfortable spot for quiet getaways in a truly beautiful part of the country. The hosts are friendly and responsive, and kept fireplaces clean and well-stocked, something especially appreciated in the colder evenings. Walks up to the base of the mountain are recommended for some spectacular views. Access to the property is by about 15km of a dirt road that is quite stony in parts and that requires careful navigation if you have a lower-slung vehicle, but is very manageable regardless.
