Spent a lovely weekend at Ndoto with my husband and pug puppy. The cottage is well appointed and very warm. The kitchen is great and I recommend heading to the Bangalow Farmers Markets in the pub carpark (25 minute drive) every Saturday morning to pick up local produce to cook. Kim very kindly lent us a pot to cook up some lamb shanks but the kitchen has most utensils you will need for a short stay.

There is a small doggy door as well as a baby gate over the stairs so you can keep your pooch outside sometimes and know they won't be able to get up to mischief.

The hobby farm has some funny alpacas and a lot of unused (but steep) land that you can go rambling around in with your dog off leash. Our puppy ran around like a crazy thing sniffing everything.

Kim can book you a massage with a local lady who was super cheap ($50) and was excellent.
