Great place with lots of space , friendly owners and beautiful location not too far from civilisation . The amenities were shared ie both men and women use the same bathroom so if your shy about pooping in a cubicle next door to someone else of the opposite sex it might be an issue . This plus the fact that the only shower cubicle ( which was lockable ) was 5m long and 1.5 wide with two shower heads left me with a few questions lol . Great pressure and loads of hot water gave a good shower . Good rec room pool table and board games etc . Oven for the Sunday roast if you fancy it and you can buy fresh farm eggs . The pool looked very inviting but being winter I chickened out being 5 degrees at night . I would recommend this place , just be a little open minded about the bathroom situation.

We Arrived at 6:30 being greeted by the property manager, he was cool and helped us plug in our power, the place is absolutely divine with a hall that includes a pool table, dart board and kitchen area with a table that you can enjoy a meal at with your family, there wasn’t much light so the property manager bought us a down a big torch to help us be able to see. In the morning he came down and greeted us with a puppy who got the good morning scratches from me and my family. This is an absolutely gorgeous place to stay I will definitely back to visit again.
