I went with my dog for a little get away from the busyness of life. It was a real treat to be at the cottage. My dog fell in love with the piglets! It was so sweet! We enjoyed walking the property, too. The way the property was listed gave me the impression the cottage was away from the farm. It's actually next to the barn and just across the way from the owners. It wasn't an issue in terms of respect or anything, but if you want to be a bit away, know the cottage is right in the mix. I enjoyed my stay just the same!
