Troutbagger's - This small farm is the ideal holiday place for the avid trout angler; it has three still-water dams stocked with rainbow and brown trout.
Mountain Biking & Trail Running
Literally hundreds of kilometres of quiet, open District road, tranquil Forest trails, long steady climbs and mind-blowing single-track. We have it all. The area around the Cottage is hilly, so more suited to intermediate and advanced riders/runners.
The Cottage is an ideal base for a training camp for your next multi-stage event, with a cool clean river to relax in afterwards while you take in your re-hydration.
The cottage has an electric fence, alarm, a lock-up garage as well as bike washing facilities.
