We loved the rural surroundings, very peaceful and scenic, particularly on a frosty morning. The location was good, close to town but not noisy. The animals were lovely. Fresh farm eggs were a nice touch and appreciated.

Peaceful and relaxing in Greytown

We had a lovely stay in the wee cottage. Peaceful surroundings, clean and tidy with everything we needed for our two nights. Very welcoming hosts, fantastic company in the hens, dogs and pigs. Hoping to be back for Midwinter!

Adorable cottage, beautiful surrounds

We spent six nights at The Brambles and loved every minute of it. The cottage is tiny but very comfortable and set in a stunning garden, the hosts are very respectful of privacy but easily contactable when we needed anything, and we loved getting to know all the animals. We enjoyed the fresh eggs and the lovely bottle of wine too!

Country get- away

Enjoyed a very comfortable, cosy cottage not to far out of main town centre We arrived to a very welcome, warmly heated, lights on and freshly picked flowers. Also farm fresh eggs to use for breakfast. Enjoyed meeting the friendly pigs, chickens and family dogs during our stay. Great spot and so peaceful

Charming

We had a very pleasant stay at the Brambles. It was very cozy, comfortable & peaceful & had everything you need. The setting in the garden is gorgeous, & of course the animals were a bonus. Would definitely love to stay again. Greytown is a very pretty town but in the Autumn it is stunning.

Beautiful surroundings and an easy walk to the town

Peaceful, dark starry nights, really comfortable and warm. Beautiful surroundings with privacy. Awesome chooks, pigs, dogs and the cat that popped over, had a quick look and then left. And amazing hosts. Welcoming and some great ideas about what to do. A lovely relaxing 3 nights.

tranquil retreat

The property was tucked away from the main house and was nice and tranquil. We were greeted by the fur babies who were good time wasters. The cottage was clean and tidy and comfortable. The walk in to Greytown is on the flat and is easy on the legs. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay

the Brambles

We stayed 3 nights. We were in need of quiet after stressful and sad family events. Peaceful surroundings, no traffic noise, but close to Greytown. I would like to go back and pick the blackberries one day.
