Following is feedback posted by visitors to this property:Very nice, well organized, beautiful scenery
This was overall a very pleasant experience for me. They allow for groups with different levels of ridership to participate at whatever is comfortable for them without anyone being left out or held back. The scones and jam were delicious. The countryside is beautiful. Awesome that they provided a ride from my hotel, as otherwise I would not have been able to come out. Will try to do again.
