Booking was easy and Ellie is quick to respond to messages. The cottage was peaceful, cosy and well equipped. I was able to relax, walk the glorious footpaths, and enjoy it all! 

 The sheepdog training aspect was carefully thought through and discussed for each of my dogs individually. I had plenty of training sessions with each dog, followed by in depth discussions and the opportunity to practice and consolidate the learning. Ellie was observant and gave helpful tips in a clear and patient manner. 

 I had the opportunity to watch other dogs being trained which really helped to illustrate the issues and skills we had spoken about. 

 The landscape is fantastic and varied and there are a variety of types of sheep and flock sizes, meaning there are plenty of opportunities for dogs and handlers both novice and experienced. 

 I also spent some time with Ed who gave me many helpful pointers for running in trials and went through some of the rules I was not aware of in great detail. 

 

I look forward to returning, Thankyou!
