21 guests' feedbackWe had a very nice stay. The view of the mountains and valley was breathtaking! However, the road was a nightmare! The wooden path from the parking was very steep and it was difficult to carry all the luggage up and down, but the cottage and view made it all worth it. Outstanding!
Fantastic stay in a fantastic destination.
Incredible views and beautiful accommodation. Very private and secure. We had a great time and didn't want to go home.
No words to describe how beautiful it is at Shepherd Farm! Unbelievably nice accommodation with breathtaking views from the wooden deck. Quiet, peaceful and peaceful. Nothing more needed!
Gorgeous accommodation in a gorgeous setting. Very comfortable and enjoyable.
We had an excellent stay, the house was very comfortable, and Vicky helped us with everything we needed. We could also use the facilities of the neighbouring resort, so the kids could swim. And the view is a great bonus!
Fantastic view! The log cabin is comfortable and private.
Excellent! It's a gem!
Spectacular setting! If it's peace and quiet you are looking for! Full use of facilities at Caley Lodge, so lots to do if you want a little more activity!
We will definitely return and will tell lots of friends about this spot.
Thanks to Vicky and Tim for your hospitality, caringness, friendliness and your helpfulness regarding the road, the weather and our small dog. Vicky and Tim you provided us with a place with the perfect view, perfect peace, perfect quietness the perfect comfort and the perfect cottage with everything we needed to stay as we were at home. The 'off-grid" situation for the cottage was also perfect.
We had a wonderful time at Shepherd Farm. The view is breathtaking and the house is beautiful. Even though it was cold outside, it was nice and cozy inside. We will definitely visit again!
Vicky communicated with us from the start and we knew what to expect. We were kindly received and given information about the area. It was lovely to sit on the veranda during coffee time and meals and appreciate the view.
The host was very accommodating and checked in with us about our stay. Needs a higher car to reach the spot but we were warned before hand.
Breathtaking views and very peaceful.
The places are fantastic, beautifully laid out and everything was just perfect. The view is also breathtaking!
We had a great stay at Shepherd Farm. Vicky went out of her way to accommodate all our requests.
The place is clean and tidy with pleasant host and wife. For older people, the access walkway is just a little steep. Everything is forgotten once you are inside.
It is a place to do some R and R. Great views I would recommend that if you have a chance go there. We will definitely go back again and again. Planning next year's trip already. Special place and special host.
Great accommodation well equipped and so clean perfect for a weekend away.
If you are tired of life in the city, give me the log house on the mountain to become human again and reflect on what life is really about. Everyone needs this type of rest. Ensure. I will come back again.
