The property had a trampoline, which was fun. The door to the shower can't close, which would be awkward if you're staying with someone who's not family. Also it's pretty close to a main road, so you'll hear big trucks driving by all night. Definitely use earplugs.

Great option for a night to break up a long drive north. Close to the road so a bit of noise but comfortable bed and tidy accommodation. We advised we’d be there late, check in was super easy and they left the lights and the heater on which was a great touch - thanks!

Nice little property but just separated by a fence from the through road. Fun fact: there were ear plugs at each bed… They provide a shared washer & dryer on-site but sadly the dryer was out-of-service. Other than that it was a nice spot and the room has everything needed.

The lock box was excellent - back lighting of the box's large numerals made code punching much easier than most lock boxes. Chalet showed aspects of deferred maintenance - including peeling paper on walls. Interesting location of some light switches, some light bulbs did not work.

Great place, just had an issue getting key back in lock box when checking out, called the number on lock box all morning and couldn't get through to anyone so called email number and they said to leave key on table. So hopefully it's all ok.
