Our host, Robert, took us in the 4 wheel drive land rover around the estate. The views were stunning - ancient limestone formations - fossils contrasted by lush, green countryside. We saw deer, baby lambs with their mothers and hawks looking for rabbits. Our trip was supposed to take two hours but took longer....and we loved every minute.
