What a lovely family living on a wonderful real working farm. Our host Stephen and his daughters made our stay extremely enjoyable, educating us and our 2+4Year old children about the animals and the way of life on a farm. We had so many experiences - milking the cow, holding little chicks, collecting eggs, feeding and moving different animals in an out of their pens. My son spent close to an hour in the duck pen getting close to ducklings.
We felt privileged to spend such a wonderful time with Stephen and his family following the girls do their morning and afternoon activities.
Our self contained cottage was built on the back of a communal kitchen and surprisingly it was not noisy! The room was very comfortable and clean. It had blinds so was nice and dark in the morning. The main bed was super comfy and the sheets felt lovely on the skin after a long day out.
We only have positive things to say about the whole stay. If we come this far up north again we will definitely stay at gracemere farmstead once more!
