Property

Bell
The "Staff Mountain Bell" is one of only 500 very a rare cold weather bells made in Birmingham England in 1869. Of the 500, 450 went to Russia and 50 were destined for Canada. This unique find has been in the family for decades and bids a cordial "good bye" to group tour as they leave.

Brix
"Brix Staff" is waiting to welcome your arrival. He is a very well mannered, pure bred Bernese Mountain Dog. He loves his belly being scratched and piles of attention. He absolutely adores running in the snow in the winter and needs lots of swims to keep cool in the summer. You may also have seen him hanging out with his Master Sue-Ann while she consults at Megalomaniac!
