Description

***All charges are in USD*** --------------------------------------------------- *** Availability & Memberships *** Bookings are members-only. We are booked to capacity, and there are no plans to increase the member limit. --------------------------------------------------- *** NO chuck-it/fetch *** Not only is it not great for your dogs, and increases the risk of injury (which, arguably is not my business), it is also extremely hard on the land, especially when it is muddy, which affects us all. ----------------------------------------------------- *** Time Keeping *** Please stick to your scheduled times - arrive at your booked time and depart promptly. Arriving early and/or leaving late is problematic for both us as your hosts and other visitors, as we aim to ensure there is no overlap in order to maintain safety for all. ---------------------------------------------------- We have trees and plants to sniff, grass to frolic in, a swamp to get muddy in, a pond to splash in, a hill for a bit of a workout, and rural views to soak up. Because there is stock (usually sheep, sometimes cows) and horses in the neighbouring paddocks, it is imperative that you keep your dogs under verbal control or use a long line at all times to ensure they do not breach the fence or harass our neighbours' stock. Long lines are available to borrow - please note it in your booking request if you would like to use one. *********************************************

Cleanliness

100% of guests said this spot was as clean as expected during their visit.

Hazards

There are some felled trees; great for dogs-on-logs photo ops, although some are starting to rot away. There are bunny holes, particularly in the lower paddock, and there is a pond and a swamp down in the bottom paddock.
