Apple Tree Pod (dog friendly)

We had a fantastic stay here. Janine was so welcoming. It was super dog friendly and our dog had an amazing time. We really didn’t want to leave and hope to go back there very soon!

Higher Dux (dog friendly)

This is our second visit to Dux Farm Retreat and our stay in Higher Dux. The cottage is gorgeous and a real 'home from home'. It is spotlessly clean and the hosts, Janine and Ian go above and beyond to ensure a comfortable stay. Fresh eggs and milk are provided as well as dog bowls and a small selection of dog treats.
The cottage has everything you need for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. It is set in a peaceful and rural location. So much to do in the area including some lovely dog friendly beaches. We cannot recommend Dux Farm Retreat enough!

Janine was a fantastic host. We and another couple were Janine's first guests in their luxury pods. We were walking the Tamra Way. The pods are superb, luxury, quiet and very well equipped. Janine was an amazing host, friendly, accommodating and flexible. Janine - thank you for your superb hosting, sorry for the delayed review. I hope Dux Farm Retreat and your pods are a success they and you deserve. Thank you so much Andy, Jacqui, Philippa and Simon.

Robert and I and our 3 small dogs had the most wonderful weekend a week ago at Higher Dux. We have stayed there before in April and once again so enjoyed ourselves. The dogs also thought it was wonderful especially the new dog walk round the property. So nice to be able to let them off the lead and of course having our own private garden was much appreciated. The cottage was immaculate and we always feel at home there. Janine and Ian are so friendly and helpful. We thoroughly recommend Higher Dux and we will definitely go back next Spring to explore the wonderful beaches nearby. We discovered Northcott beach this time and it was amazing especially for the dogs.

Me, my partner and our dog Lucky stayed at the Plum Tree Pod during the August bank holiday and it certainly exceeded our expectations! Firstly, the hosts were not only friendly, but also very attentive and responses over either text or Airbnb were prompt. We were lucky enough to be the first to take Plum Tree Pod on her maiden voyage and what an utter joy. Everything was very thoughtfully setup- to the wide array of utilities and amenities available, to the dog treats, dog cleaning towels- we really couldn't have asked for more. Despite there being 2 other pods on the field, we did not once feel like we needed more privacy. The pods have sufficient distance from one another so noise was not an issue at all. Thank you for having us Ian and Janice, you made our stay in Cornwall especially memorable. If we visit Cornwall again, we wouldn't hesitate to reserve another pod with you.

— Jimmy, Ngoc Thu & Lucky 🐶, 26 Aug 2024

We have just got back from a wonderful week away. The cottage is stunning and Janine is the perfect host. Very clear instructions upon arrival, cottage was spotless with such lovely little touches to make you feel right at home. Janine even showed my daughter and I the chickens, which my daughter loved!! Location of the cottage is excellent as only a 15 minute journey to Bude and lots to see in the surrounding areas. Janine has provided a very detailed booklet on places to go and see which is very helpful. Definitely the best air bnb we have stayed in, everything has been so well thought out and it just made the whole stay so stress free. Thank you so much Janine and Ian for a lovely stay , you really were so welcoming :)

We recently spent the weekend at Pear Tree Pod to celebrate my 29th birthday, and our experience was exceptional from start to finish. Upon arrival, we were greeted with a bottle of prosecco, helium balloons, and banners, all arranged by Janine to make our stay extra special. The pod itself was immaculate, and we were particularly impressed by the attention to detail, including the luxurious bathrobes, coffee pods, and homemade biscuits.

The pods are situated in a stunning location, offering a private walk on the property that we thoroughly enjoyed, along with the chance to visit the chickens. Janine's assistance both before and during our stay was invaluable, ensuring that everything was perfect. We had an amazing time and look forward to returning in the future.

— Jessie & Tyler, 19 Aug 2024

We have just returned from a lovely weekend staying at Apple Tree Pod. Janine and her family made us feel so welcome and the pod itself is beautiful with Janine adding little extras to make it even more special. We have 2 small dogs, one of them tiny and so we were worried that it might not be secure enough for her but even she couldn’t fit through the fence so it is super secure for dogs. Thank you Janine, we will be back!

— Laura , 28 Jul 2024

We’ve just returned from a weekend at Dux Farm Retreat, staying in Higher Dux! This place is amazing. Janine was on hand to personally welcome us and show us where everything was. The information pack contained everything we needed to know about our stay and we had the best time. Perfect if you’re looking for a peaceful time in a beautiful location. Perfect for families with dogs too! The cottage was so clean!

Thank you for a wonderful stay Janine - we’ll definitely be returning with our two dogs in the future!

— Ellis & Emma, 28 Jul 2024

What a lovely place and hosts. We had a short stay but loved it so much we wished it was longer. Beautiful location out of the way yet close to enough places. Cottage was beautiful with everything we needed. Definitely recommend and we will come back.

— Daniel, Lauren, Ella & Noah, 28 Jul 2024

What a beautiful place to stay !
Excellent accommodation with attention to detail on those little personal touches, making it home from home . Made such perfect use of the space within and around the pod , giving privacy but an open space feeling too . The outside bath tub was a lovely touch too of an evening .
Hosts were so friendly, helpful and on hand throughout our stay .
Very relaxed break and highly recommend .

— Dawn, Antony & Beau, 26 Jul 2024

Absolutely fabulous time at Dux farm retreat. Beautiful cottage with everything you need for a fabulous holiday. So dog friendly but still luxurious. Thank you for an amazing stay....we will be returning

— Nicci, 25 Jul 2024

Perfect stay in the pear tree pod. The pods are very well equipped and thoughtfully laid out so that you have everything you need and to make your stay as comfortable as possible. Firewood, toiletries and basic kitchen supplies were all provided. They are spread out in a spacious meadow, very peaceful and just what we needed to relax for the weekend. The hosts were very welcoming and keen to make sure we had everything we needed. Would highly recommend.

— Thom & Katy, 14 Jul 2024

Ian and Janine were lovely and helpful and although they went away whilst we were at their cottage, Janine’s parents were there should we need anything and Janine said she would be available on the phone for any queries - but there were none, everything was perfect for us. Cosy little cottage in very peaceful surroundings, we would definitely go again.

— Michelle. Rod, Molly & Alex, 14 Jul 2024

Very responsive communication and clear instructions given on location. Arrived and was greeted by Janine who was very friendly and made sure we had everything we needed.

— Alexandra, Thomas, Kiera, Lewis & Milo 🐶, 12 Jul 2024

Janine was so welcoming when we first arrived and greeted us at the car to show us around the property. We were only the 2nd ones to be staying here! We were staying as part of our minimoon and were greeted with a card, banner, lovely note and a bottle of fizz. the personal touches were incredible, bottle of milk, home baked biscuits and bowls for our two dogs. They have thought of everything! The pod was completely pristine and beautifully decorated. The outside area has everything you could want, rattan furniture, fire pit and beautiful bath which is fenced for Privacy. the pod is extremely pet friendly, being fenced right round so that your dogs are able to play safely. There is a really helpful guide book with information on local attractions, walks, restaurants and also the pod itself. Janine was always on hand if we needed anything. Thank you for an amazing stay!

— Amy, Ieuan, Trixie 🐶 & Bea 🐶, 12 Jul 2024

The Cottage is immaculate, with tasteful & v comfortable interiors. The beds are very comfy. The kitchen & bathrooms pristine. All the little extras added to the comfort of our stay, like fresh eggs, milk in the fridge, tasty Welcome Biscuits, treats for our dog, plus towels & bowls. Lovely outdoor seating area, local walks & all v peaceful. A fantastic home from home. We couldn’t have asked for more.

— Caroline, Mark & Roxy 🐶, 01 Jul 2024

— Josh, 14 Jun 2024

— Nicky, Neil, Alyson & Jason, 10 Jun 2024

We had a wonderful week staying at Higher Dux! Janine and Ian were great hosts and provided everything we could possibly need. The cottage was beautifully presented and in lovely, peaceful surroundings. Totally dog friendly too, which was perfect for us!

— Chloe, Linda, Bobby 🐶 & Micky 🐶, 05 Jun 2024

Ian & Janine went above and beyond for our visit. The cottage is beautiful, clean and cosy! We could completely relax knowing that our small dogs couldn’t escape in the garden, it is so secure and they enjoyed their freedom! Prior to arrival I had my food shopping delivered and they kindly put it neatly away for us - saved us popping out again once checked in! Janine was constantly at the end of those phone for any questions we had, made us feel so at home. We can’t wait to return to Higher Dux Cottage again next year! It’s a very special place set in the best location to unwind from everyday life!

— Eleanor, Jamie, Rosie 🐶 & Maisie 🐶, 03 Jun 2024

A beautiful cottage which had everything we needed for some relaxing family time away. The hosts were always easy to communicate to and we would definitely look to come back.

— Holly, Rory, Rupert, Ottilie & Julienne, 25 May 2024

Higher Dux (dog friendly)

Just got back from a lovely few days spent ar Higher Dux, with family and dogs dave and remy, beautiful well equipped cottage, spotlessly clean and thoughtful extras for people and dogs! The outside space is as thoughtful as the inside with lovely comfortable furniture, barbecue and even a dogwash area.
Janine showed us the new pods which are gorgeous 😍 will definitely be back loved it.

— Mrs Julie Fowler, 12 May 2024

Lovely stay, super warm and clean cottage. Janine was very responsive so easy check in and helped us during our stay. Garden areas perfect for our two dogs as fully enclosed. And unlike lots of properties that say they accept dogs Janine’s cottage was truly dog friendly. Would definitely recommend.

— Jo, Steve, Pat, Tucker & Toby 🐶🐶, 29 Apr 2024

Thank you Janine and Ian, We had a wonderful stay and everything smelled and looked lovely and clean. Thank you for putting up balloons for our son’s 10th birthday. The dog wash was great and we used it on Woody everyday after the beach! Your communication was very appreciated with lots of helpful advice. We spent a happy 3 hours in the pub with Pam and the local band. We ate waffles at Buffys and enjoyed rainy walks both on the beach and from the property. Thank you so much!

— Sarah, Paul, Hunter & Woody 🐶, 11 Apr 2024

We travelled from Bristol for our second stay at Higher Dux Retreat in Pyworthy, Bude and this time took our long time friends. Again, our 2 small dogs also came. On arrival, we were most welcomed by Janine and her husband Ian, and had a catch up with things. Their hosting skills are exemplary and communication from booking the stay to returning home is excellent with lots of additional info and helpfulness. The cottage itself is quirky and unique and Janine has a very, very high standard of cleaning. Everything is spotless and I mean everything. Not a single hair or fluff in sight. Also, very dog friendly, with bowls and treats, washing facilities for them and a secure large garden that is completely safe for them to roam. They also provide treats for the adults which is a lovely touch. Our friends also said that they had a wonderful time there and would also return. I asked Janine to show us the new luxurious glamping pods that they are installing on their land and they are furnished to a very high standard and are roomy. These will also be dog friendly which is a bonus and if we have additional family members that would like to stay with us then this could be an option. Along with the secure garden, comes a large patio area with a bbq and outdoor rattan furniture and is there for you to enjoy. A sheltered area is also available complete with washing line and pegs (however, that is the last thing I would want to do!). I'm so glad we have found this gem of a place and highly recommend a stay there - you will not be disappointed. Thank you Janine and Ian. You should be very proud of yourselves. We wish you every success for a busy future!

— Deb, Tim, Kim, Elvis, Harley 🐶 & Bonnie 🐶, 08 Apr 2024

We've just returned from spending Easter at this little slice of heaven in Devon. Higher Dux is a beautiful 2 bed cottage surrounded by the tranquil countryside. It's equipped with everything thing you need, we were just disappointed that the weather prevented us making full use of the garden. We hope to make a return visit soon

— Rachel, Geoff, Ruby-Mae & 🐶 Edie, 01 Apr 2024

Myself and my 8 year old daughter and our crazy spaniel had a lovely break at the cottage. Janine was super helpful prior to our stay with places to go and dog friendly walks, restaurants and beaches. The cottage was spotless and so lovely. We instantly felt at home. Janine had thought of everything that a guest could need can highly recommend.

— Leeanne, Sophie & Max 🐶, 29 Mar 2024

What a wonderful stay! The place was spotless and equipped with everything we needed. Janine was extremely responsive to messages and only too happy to recommend local amenities etc. It was the most relaxing stay in beautiful, peaceful rural surroundings. We will definitely be back.

— Naomi, Stuart, Henry and Hannah, 24 Mar 2024

Janine and Ian's place is fantastic. Comfortable, immaculately clean and with every amenity it's ideal rural location is perfect for a relaxing break with superb countryside walks and close proximity to the North Cornwall and Devon coast for beaches, cliffs and coastal paths. We couldn't have been made more welcome; Higher Dux is very private and peaceful, cosy and so comfortable you don't really want to leave. Highly recommended, you won't be disappointed.

— David & Maggie, 10 Mar 2024

We felt welcomed and at home straight away even our dog was welcomed with treats, dog bowls and throws for comfort. For us, all you would need, milk, eggs, tea bags actually everything, so many small touches that amounted to an over all feeling of home, this allowed us to relax and enjoy this beautiful accommodation immediately. Peaceful and secluded hamlet close to beaches and towns. Would recommend Sandymouth Beach for sheer impact.

— Kevin, Helen, Kate, James and Keeva 🐶, 19 Feb 2024

This was probably the best place we have ever stayed. The cottage was beautiful and very clean. We were able to relax and rest. Janine was easy to communicate with and was a very good host. We will recommend to our families and friends. We will be back again. Thank you again.

— Mark & Janet, 11 Feb 2024

we had a lovely stay in beautiful and peaceful surroundings. would definitely return again.

— Keith, Helen, Steve, Heather and Pete 🐶, 04 Jan 2024

Such a beautiful place to stay over the christmas period. Christmas decorations were stunning. We also received a christmas gift from our hosts. Everything was perfect, clean and cosy. Janine and Ian provided clear instructions and checked in to see if we had everything we needed. It was just what we needed. A huge thank you 🙏

— Justine, Lauren and Emily, 27 Dec 2023

This was the most beautiful, cosy, comfortable and well appointed cottage. Ian and Janine had thought he of everything! Just a perfect oasis - so calm and quiet. Thank you so much - we will be back.

— Sue, Jonathan and David, 09 Dec 2023

Three nights at Higher Dux to recharge the batteries and enjoy some beach walks with the dogs. We had a lovely stay and Janine was the perfect host. Everything we, and the dogs, needed. We will definitely pass the details on to friends and look forward to a return visit.

— Amanda & Chris, Chili & Biscuit 🐶🐶, 01 Dec 2023

We had an absolutely lovely time, I highly recommend to stay here! Ian and janine had thought of everything! From eggs and coffee pods, to a box of little amenities if you forgot your toothbrush! It had all the special touches like doggie bowls and towels for them. The location was absolutely stunning it was so peaceful and exactly what we wanted.

— Lucy, 26 Nov 2023

Our stay was absolutely perfect. The cottage is nice and cosy, clean, very comfortable with everything you could possibly need! The hosts show great attention to detail, the little touches were all, thank you Janine and Ian. The area the cottage is situated in is beautiful and quiet, very close to Bude which is also lovely with lots to explore!

— Aimee, Tim, Lachlan & Hudson, 20 Nov 2023

Beautiful little place to stay ,was like a home from home .

— Toni, Phil, Steph & Nigel. Gus & Freddie 🐶🐶, 13 Nov 2023

We had a wonderful stay. We have two rescue dogs with no recall and adventurous spirits and we've been let down by so many hosts who tell us their garden is well fenced when it hasn't been. Higher Dux had a wonderful fence which was very secure, meaning that we could properly relax. Its hard to explain how wonderful our weekend was because of that. It's a beautiful property, well equipped with so many little thoughtful extras. It's also extremely quiet at night which we loved. Highly recommended!

— Marie, Andrew, Thelma and Louise 🐶🐶, 06 Nov 2023

Janine and Ian were extremely friendly and communicative from the moment I booked. They had lots of helpful advice and nothing seemed too much trouble. We loved the little touches to accommodate all of us and the dog! A great place to stay with super hosts!

— Claire, Andrew, Joshua and George 🐶, 02 Nov 2023

Higher Dux was clean, well equipped and homely. Set in a beautiful remote location. Janine and Ian catered for our every need plus extra. Personal touches were added to our accommodation. Great communication throughout our stay. We cannot recommend Higher Dux enough. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

— Kirsty, Craig, Phoebe, Freya and Willow 🐶, 29 Oct 2023

Well presented, with lots of thoughtful touches. Helpful hosts, country location with beaches a short drive away. We enjoyed our short autumn break

— Hannah, Russell, Iona, Oralie and Monty 🐶, 25 Oct 2023

We had an absolutely fantastic stay here. Ian and Janine had thought of everything which meant that we immediately felt at home. They provided plenty of instructions beforehand, with local recommendations and helpful hints. We travelled into Bude as it was only a 20 minute drive away but we could have stayed in the area going on walks, visiting local pubs and still had a great time. We didn’t take a dog but was a very dog friendly place to stay. Couldn’t have asked for a better stay, thank you.

— Katie, 15 Oct 2023

We had a wonderful stay at beautiful Higher Dux. Ian and Janine were such friendly helpful hosts and they have clearly poured their love into this place. We felt very welcome, so many little touches that made it feel so special. It had everything we could ask for, like a home from home. Lots of recommendations for things to do nearby but a perfect base for us to go on to explore further down into Cornwall. Such a peaceful stunning location and gorgeous beaches nearby. We really have had such a brilliant holiday and made memories to last. Thank you very much.

— Carl, Laura, Noah & Poppy 🐶, 12 Oct 2023

What a beautifully appointed property. Everything was so clean and neat, inside and out. With a choice of seating areas in both front and back gardens, which are both totally secure. Great for dogs. Ian and Janine were so helpful from start to finish. Great communication. There are plenty of beaches, walks and waterfalls just a short drive away. A very relaxing and comfortable few days away. We would definitely recommend this unusual property as your next go-to holiday. We certainly hope to revisit.

— Anita, Steve, Roxy & Izzy 🐶🐶, 10 Oct 2023

A lovely stay despite the weather. A unique place with great use of outside areas. Very well equipped.

— Irene & Chris, 03 Oct 2023

A unique find in Devon! Right on the Cornwall boarder allowing access to the whole south west in easy reach. The most beautiful cottage with the most amazing scenery, couldn’t recommend this stay more. Cottage was beautifully presented inside and out, with charming character and finished to a very high standard.
The hosts were perfect and catered to all our needs. With amenities not too far away you have the best of the countryside and coast with Bude only 10-15 minute drive away. St Nectan’s Glen Waterfall is only 20 miles away and is certainly worth the drive to experience something completely unexpected. Would defiantly recommend this stay to anyone looking for a break away to relax and recharge.

— Sharna & Ben, 30 Sep 2023

Beautiful cottage, so welcoming and friendly. Janine provided such clear instructions on how to find the cottage and was there to greet us when we arrived. Lovely touches too, with towels for our dog as well as treats for her too. Loved the fact that the outdoor areas were completely secure too so we had no concerns about our dog escaping. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it and would definitely look to return.

— Samantha, Andrew, Charlotte & Keiran and Teddie 🐶, 24 Sep 2023

A wonderful few days! Janine was so lovely, from booking to leaving! Accommodation was really gorgeous, I could live there ! So peaceful, cosy and relaxing. Would definitely recommend this to anyone. Thank you

— Jill & Vera, 22 Sep 2023

Had a wonderful stay. Location is brilliant. Well kitted out and Janine and Ian were very responsive hosts!

— Amber, Simon, Sue & Dave, 17 Sep 2023

Wow. What an absolutely incredible find! We have been to many Air BnBs over the past few years and can truly say this is one of the most immaculate places we have ever stayed. It was spotless from the moment we walked in! Very homely, spacious and comfortable. Everything you need and suited us perfectly with gorgeous views all around. We didn’t have a chance to use the BBQ and outside seating area but can imagine it would be wonderful when the weather is right. Location is great, with lots to do just a short drive away. Easy access all around to areas of Devon and Cornwall, with amenities close by. It is private without feeling too isolated. Even before we arrived, ours hosts were so helpful and really went above and beyond! Thank you for a great stay, we are so lucky to have found Higher Dux - do not hesitate to book this wonderful place before it gets booked up! :)

— Aislinn, Gary, Pat, Tom & Orla 👶 and Maple 🐶, 15 Sep 2023

Location - very quiet and peaceful. Property excellent - no fault at all so would highly recommend.

— Ann & John, 11 Sep 2023

We really enjoyed our stay at Higher Dux. What a lovely home from home. Janine and Ian were perfect hosts, which started from when we first booked. The accommodation is in a lovely, tranquil setting and has everything you need for your stay. We had beautiful weather during our stay and had some great walks with the dogs on the doorstep. Thank you 🙏🏼🐶☀️

— Melissa & Daisy and Murphy 🐶, Kirsty and Lily 🐶, 04 Sep 2023

Janine and Ian could not have been more accommodating. Great place to stay.

— Laura, James, Pippa & Austin and Archie 🐶, 01 Sep 2023

Our stay at Janine and Ian’s property was fantastic. We came down for a family birthday celebration get away and need less to say we were more than happy with the stay. We mentioned prior to arriving that we had a birthday in the party and our hosts catered to that with balloons, Prosecco and cake at a small arrange fee! The accommodation is clean and homely and the surrounding area is beautiful. Janine and Ian were very helpful with any questions or recommendations. We highly recommend staying here!

— Adam, Eliza, Rosalind 🎈 & Mark, 26 Aug 2023

Higher Dux is a superb cottage to holiday in. Janine, the host, has been very informative, helpful and friendly from the moment of booking, during and after the holiday. The cottage is set in a beautiful space that is secure for children and dogs. Ample parking and an excellent patio area to have a bbq (included) and has a relaxing corner rattan suite. The rear garden is also secure and has additional seating for outside enjoyment. As for the property, it is furnished to a very high standard. Lots of extras provided as well which is an excellent touch. Beds are really comfortable and we all slept well. The cottage is spotlessly clean and well maintained. Shower and bathroom both excellent. Higher Dux is situated in beautiful countryside and close to beaches and Bude. We will be returning and would highly recommend staying here for an excellent experience.

— Deb, Tim, Dave & Val and Harley 🐶 & Bonnie 🐶, 21 Aug 2023

Wonderful place to stay with a toddler and a dog, with all you could need. Great hosts who even unpacked our online food delivery and showed our daughter their chickens which she loved! Close to Bude and the fabulous surrounding beaches. Would definitively recommend!

— Natalie, Alex & Emilia and Jasper 🐶, 19 Aug 2023

Absolutely amazing holiday at Higher Dux! We couldn’t have wished or asked for more. The cottage was immaculate & more roomy than we’d imagined. Fully equipped with good Wi-Fi. Outdoor space was vast, stunning views & very peaceful. Our girls (7 & 5) & our dog all agreed this was “the best holiday ever”!! Ian & Janine were fantastic hosts - very respectful of our privacy but always on hand if we needed anything. We’ve returned refreshed & ready to go again - We highly recommend a stay Higher Dux!

— Lucy, Steve, Penny, Daisy and Trevor 🐶, 13 Aug 2023

What a fantastic place to stay, we thoroughly enjoyed it and found it so relaxing. Janine and Ian were fantastic hosts and made sure we were made to feel right at home, thank you so much.

— Johnathan, Carly, Scarlett and Harry, 05 Aug 2023

We all slept extremely well, it was so quiet.

— Andrew, Tracey and Poppy, 02 Aug 2023

We had a great time at this beautiful location! The dogs absolutely loved the 2 x garden spaces. The accommodation was neatly appointed and spotlessly clean. Ian and Janine were most helpful, greeting us on arrival and very responsive to messages when required. Lovely touch with a welcome message on the chalk board, shortbread for us and treats for the dogs. ❤️

— Sam & Nicole, Archie 🐶 & Poppy 🐶, 31 Jul 2023

This is a little gem of a place. From the beautiful setting, the elegant design, the well-appointed kitchen and the barn owls. Janine is a very responsive and proactive host who made us feel at home from the moment she greeted us. The design has been carefully and deliberately put together to make things easy for visitors travelling light. The kitchen is well appointed enough to make cooking for a small family easy. The bedrooms were clean and well-proportioned and the two bathrooms made getting ready for the day simple. The site is private enough to be comfortable with great outdoor spaces including bbq and seating. Sitting out in the early evening sunshine watching the barn owls hunting will live long in the memory.

— Alan, Tanya, Anna & Niamh and Paws 🐶, 29 Jul 2023

This is an outstanding property in every respect. The house has been recently renovated to a very high standard with superb fittings and equipment. High quality bedding that was pristine. The layout was excellent with the en-suite bedrooms at either end of the house and the snug kitchen and living area centrally located. There is superb outside seating and BBQ area both to the front and rear with easy access to both. We had a super weekend - thank you!

— Simon, Lorraine, Pete and Diane, 24 Jul 2023

Many thanks for checking in with us to see if everything was fine. We thoroughly enjoyed our peaceful stay at Higher Dux, exploring the stunning locality. The accommodation is clean, modern and comfortable and, even though we didn’t need it, it was a nice touch to be offered a later check out. The best of luck in all your new ventures.

— Bobby, Phil, Cian & Dinky 🐶, 13 Jul 2023

We were lucky enough to be the first guests at Dux Farm Retreat and we were not disappointed. Janine and Ian were most welcoming and made sure everything was perfect right down to fresh eggs and bowls and throws for the dogs.
