About this property
A Cottage and The Railway Carriage with use of a Natural Pool.
If you’re wanting to get away with friends or family, but, also want a little bit of quiet time and privacy, The Railway Carriage and The Cottage could be the answer for you!
The perfect home from home experience, each property has their own private garden with stunning views. Enjoy your morning coffee or a chilled glass of wine, and relax watching the deer stroll across the fields at dawn and dusk.
We have a fabulous Natural Pool, called the NDORO POOL located in our garden. This is completely natural, so, no chemicals, or heating, just nature, water, plants, swan mussels, water beetles, dragonflies and anything else that cares to joins us! We have added some air stones to assist in the circulation of the water, and therefore helping the biodiversity of the water and the ecosystems. As with anything natural, we don't have complete control of the pool and there are occasions when the pool has to rest... for example if we get an algae bloom. This is rare but it can happen from time to time.

The Railway Carriage has a double cabin bed and only sleeps 2.
