We hugely enjoyed our stay at Marcia's place, Swallow's Keep. Marcia and Ray went out of their way to make our experience a great one. The place is beautiful, and both tranquil and interesting. There are chickens and sheep and two enormous friendly dogs, all of which helped make our stay unique and fun. But despite all the animals it is amazingly quiet and relaxing. The peace of the still nights and endless stars in the sky took our breath away and made us so happy to have chosen this place as our little escape from usual city life. Marcia made us feel so welcome and at home, and took the extra effort to show our 9 year old all the animals and how to feed them, which was a great experience for a kid only accustomed to the city. We are eager to go back and stay at a future date. Thanks for everything, Marcia.
