    The tiniest moan was the ladder to the bedroom. Maybe I’m too old though…. It was great, that’s the key thing.

    It was fabulously quirky. The room was laid out carefully and the facilities were good.

    It says numerous times about there being a hot tub AND a bath. But there wasnt a hot tub. I didn't mind but it could be quite misleading to others. This doesn't take anything away from how great our stay was though, we will be back!

    I really loved the property. The host was helpful and kind and welcoming. He went above and beyond to help us and make us comfortable. Even helped us plan our daily activities away from the shack.

    Beautiful property with walking paths, pond features, and a log station to buy more logs as John provided us with one box full. Comes with a full kitchen for everything you would need to grill out or make tea and coffee. There are a few pubs down 2-3 mins drive down the street and is within 30 miles from the beach. Had a nice, relaxing weekend and would book again

    The only negative point was the weather wasn't as sunny as we would have liked.

    We loved everything about this location, it was beautiful, peaceful, the only noise was nature, all the facilities there was 5 star quality, we saw a rare barn owl, the outdoor seating area with fire pit, is great for star gazing at night, the hut is beautifully quaint, we definitely plan to visit again.
