Staying at the butchers house was eerily intriguing! Its like taking a step back in time, where things were simple and you were content with just being at home.
The house itself has been restored to make it feel clean and usable, but without loosing that historical experience, you feel like the walls have many stories of the old days.
The amenities force you to put the phone down and put the effort in, for example: lighting the fire, or brewing a tea the traditional way. But if that’s all to hard there is electric heating and a kettle for your convenience!
We had fun exploring all the draws and found a deck of cards which was plenty of entertainment for the night.
The bed was comfortable with deliciously cosy sheets. We lit the main fire which had already been pre-made for our convenience, this heated up the little house nicely.
My only suggestion for future stayers would be to preplan - knowing that this little place forces you to slow down. There was good reception, we took our little music player which added to our experience (I’m not sure if there was one provided, we didn’t bother looking) there is also no television (on purpose), we had our laptop to watch a movie snuggled up in bed, however, we didn’t use it for our 1 night stay. If staying longer, I think that would have come in handy. But I would recommend taking a good book for the down times.
Overall we loved our stay. It was something like we have never experienced before, we will cherish and talk about our stay for a long time to come.
