    “We felt trapped in the cottage with our two dogs.”

    The courtyard was secure but had two endlessly barking schnauzer dogs at a window whenever anyone appeared in the yard never mind letting our dogs out for a wander. The pictures suggested a grass area adjacent to the cottage which looked ideal. The sheep in the adjacent field were fine but the free range poultry sometimes in that area clearly precluded us from going there with the dogs.

We just wanted somewhere to pop the dogs for a few minutes, a busy immediately adjacent road made made any walk more of an ordeal. We left after one night. Bill

    We are sorry you felt “trapped” in our two acres of land. Great you approved of the sheep. We like them, as do most of our guests. They are limited to one paddock and, if you hadn’t rushed off a few hours early, you’d have found several secure, private areas to exercise your dogs. We live in the middle of the countryside. Cross the road and there are walks everywhere. Be brave! Although I appreciate some might see crossing a road as a challenge. We welcome guests with dogs. Sometimes dogs bark. We hope you enjoyed the free range eggs we left for you. And the wine. And the biscuits. And the fresh flowers. Property Owner
