9.6/10 Exceptional! (20 reviews)
"Really great hut, all new, comfy, and designer. I may have missed the fact that only the single huts have hot tubs, so I was a little disappointed when our double did not have a hot tub. There is construction going on making access a little more difficult. Overall a great place."
