unbearable noise inconsiderate families

the caravan was very clean, i'll give them that.

i was expecting a peaceful stay, but the noise was unbearable, you could hear everything happening in the kitchen and dining area. inconsiderate families arrived late and cooked dinner, had loud talks and made noise late into the night. families should not be allowed here if they can't control their kids and respect others.

Really good Stay, Clean, Cozy, and Well-Equipped!

thoughtful touch amazing location convenient kitchen

The log cabin was clean. it was cozy. I was surprised to see dog bowls, poo bags, and treats upon arrival. This was a thoughtful touch. The location is amazing, and walks start right from the hotel. The kitchen is well-equipped.

The mattresses felt worn. I could feel the springs during the night. This affected the quality of sleep, I hope they replace them soon.

The immediate surroundings offer amazing views. Plus they provide direct access to trails. Hiking is a wonderful option for outdoor enthusiasts, offering various routes suitable for different skill levels. The shop is also only a short drive away.

Amazing Mountain Getaway

mountain view dog bowls equipped kitchen

The front deck gave a great view of the mountains. The managers left dog bowls and treats for my dog upon arrival, which I really appreciated. The kitchen was well equipped with coffee, tea, milk, and biscuits. It was AMAZING!!!

The caravan had a terrible damp smell upon arrival, off putting. We aired the place out the best we could.

I found the kitchen had everything required for cooking simple meals. car parking was right next to the building i stayed in. i appreciated the walking distance to a local pub. The road had good lighting.
