"Farm life"

We chose Jock's Cottage for our family holiday based on the reviews on your page. We stayed there for 7 nights. As a family we often fish and enjoy nature, the trout pond is advertised for the use of Jock's cottage residents. At first we were very impressed with the place: The house is well furnished. It was cold when we got there and quickly got the fireplace going which immediately created a nice atmosphere. Every day had enough firewood to keep the fireplace burning. When we arrived, the einar was at the pond, where he and a family member were catching trout. They welcomed us, assured us that there were plenty of fish to catch. Also showed their catch for the day, which made us very excited to start fishing. The next morning the einar was at the cottage early to do his rounds. We own various fishing rods and fishing equipment. The owner saw some of our rods with regular reels on them and said they were not allowed (which we already knew). I chatted with the agent by e-mail and WhatsApp a few days before our arrival, to get all the necessary information. In the surrounding ponds there are other fish species as well, carp and carp that we also wanted to catch with the usual rods. All our fishing gear went along. In town we purchased and rented more fly fishing rods and equipment. After our days as booked were almost up, we decided to stay even longer. Inquired and let the agent who handled the bookings know that everything is in order for us to stay even longer. We made payment and looked forward to a few more days on the farm. The same evening the agent called and said, she just wants to inform us "Now that the einar has heard you are staying longer he just wants to let you know how unhappy he is with your way of fishing.". The agent said the owner let her know my husband pulled out 7 fish and was unhappy about it. The agent went on to mention how hard they are working to keep the system running in the dam. We were certainly not there to disrupt any system or cause harm of any kind. Everything was done according to the rules of fly fishing. All that were caught were safely returned to the pond. Then why is the dam being advertised for use if it is a problem? I was completely blown away. On arrival we fished on Sunday and spent time at the cottage's trout pond on Monday. Furthermore, we explored the town and other places in the area. Actually spent little time at the dam in the 7 days there. The owner was at the cottage and we discussed everything with him, even showed the photos of the fish that were caught. At that point 2 fish. We also talked about the history of the farm, the cattle and where we can walk/jog. If there was a problem, the owner could have discussed it with us immediately. After the call from the agent we immediately felt unwelcome and out of place, I called the owners, but there was no answer. Most of the time we didn't even use the pond or fish there. We explored the town and fished at other ponds in the area. At none of the other ponds was there any problem with how we fished. This was a holiday we were really looking forward to, we wanted to teach the children the art of trout fishing better as we have a great love for fishing. However, the last two days were unpleasant, we could have just packed up and gone home. A cleaner comes in every day, the last 2 days the dishes were left dirty and less attention paid to cleaning. The master bedroom's toilet frequently overflowed, but was sorted out by the cleaners. Apart from the misunderstanding "of our way of fishing" it is truly a lovely place where one can appreciate nature and enjoy the tranquility of the farm. The Cottage is very private. The tranquility and privacy are ideal for people who want to be alone. The weather is 4 seasons in one day, very unpredictable and enough warm clothes is important. There is an electric blanket in the master bedroom and heaters in the rooms. Security is good, there is a lot of anti-theft protection, as well as a security company that responds quickly. Even though the local settlement is behind the cottage, we did not feel unsafe at all. There are deer that come to drink water at the dam and many different bird life at the dam. We would love to visit Jock's Cottage again, it's a shame it wasn't better communicated to get clarity on "our way of fishing" without just making an assumption.
