Just the most wonderful place!! We were very lucky to have spent Christmas at this beautiful cosy cabin with its log fire, peaceful location and lovely setting. Watching the ducks, geese, chickens, sheep and goats from the window was an absolute delight. Feeding the animals with Ian was definitely a highlight - you can really feel the passion & dedication the family put into all their hard work. It was the perfect getaway, made even better by fantastic hosts. Thank you for such a relaxing and memorable stay - we will definitely be back!!!

We had the most amazing holiday at Lekido. Ian, Nicki and family couldn't do enough for us. The most idyllic, quiet and peaceful location, and the best opportunity to escape from all of the stresses of everyday life. I absolutely loved helping with the animals each day and Nicki and Ian were very patient, willing to explain everything and let us get involved in farm life. Our two dogs loved running around and meeting the animals too. We had a lovely time in the village, we were lucky that we were there when the Christmas Fayre was on and got to see Ian dressed as Santa! We loved it so much, we didn't want to leave at the end - we look forward to coming back! Thank you so much for having us :)
