In the Navy we call it a BRAVO ZULU, which basically means that someone has done a Great job. As such when you own a farm you know that you deal with a lot of different companies and other farms. Since I am such a big fan of customer service, I decided I would shoot out a big BRAVO ZULU to anyone or a service that really impress's me. So here they are:
- CIRCLE S FARM: On our relocation from Texas to Virginia, we stopped in and stayed here for the night. Really got to say, WOW! I strongly recommend anyone passing through the area to stop and spend the night. They are close to the highway, so it is not troublesome to get to them and get back on your travels. The accommodations were great too. Basically, it was like staying in your own house. They have a townhouse that we stayed in that had three bedrooms, kitchen, living room, two bathrooms and a laundry room. We also rolled in pretty late that night and were starving to say the least. It was nice having a kitchen there, but we opted to drive no more than ten minutes down to the local restaurants. As far as the horse accommodations go, they were just as great. Had a whole paddock with two individual stalls for them to stay in. Nice since they needed to stretch there legs out after riding for so long. If you were wondering about price, it was really awesome according what you get. They are pet friendly and it was an overall pleasant night. Finnicum Appaloosas gives Circle S Farm a Huge Bravo Zulu! You can find them at Circle S Farm, 370 East Main Street, Abingdon, VA 24210. Tel: 276-628-3232. E-mail: teresa3usa@netscape.net
- Horse Motel International: Love this website. It is so easy to plan a trip when you visit this site. You can go by state and as long as you know your route, then the site gives you maps to help plan your stops. Definitely have this one listed in my favorites. http://www.horsemotel.com/
