Venessa Cuthbert, 3 Jun 2011 for 2 nights   Verfied guest review Verified

Our stay at Berg House Cottages was great. The cottage was lovely and cosy,
although we found the set up of having to walk through the main bedroom into
the kitchen a bit cumbersome. The setting is beautiful and it was lovely and
peaceful with a wonderful view of the mountains. I loved the old fashioned
rustic set up of the kitchen/lounge.

I can recommend and my overall review rating is [4 ] out of 5 (simply
because of the ergonomic lay out of the cottage. There was also no couch
where one could "slouch" in front of the fire, although we found it very
pleasant sitting at the kitchen table playing Scrabble.

It was one of the most splendid break aways that we ever had...even our 2 teenage boys can't wait for the next opportunity to go there again.
Remember good walking shoes if you want to move around on the farm... whitch we think is an absolute must. It is such a beautiful area
