We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to this beautiful and peaceful farm with lots of space to roam and beautiful scenery. Add in the beautiful horses and birds. It was a wonderful experience for all ages. The property is also located. Close to lots of restaurants and shopping , so it was just amazing.
We had the perfect time. The house is comfortable and the pool is great. The hosts are wonderful and live in a separate suite. We felt like we had the place to ourselves to walk the farm, see the horses and relax. Westminster has a small downtown with good restaurants. We are thrilled we found this gem in the hills.
