This heritage, adobe cottage with a traditional country atmosphere has been lovingly restored to its original pristine glory. Come and experience the Simple Life!

An original 1865 missionary cottage, country styling, the village and mountainside to wander and discover, plus excellent mountain biking trails. Here you will be woken by the cocks crowing and pigs squealing at feeding time. Farm animals graze the verges and modern transport happily shares the road with donkey and horse carts. Bring your bicycle and walking shoes!
