Stunning location and comfortable cabin
A beautiful location and the cabin was lovely with bathrooms for all, stunning views, loads of wildlife, a great hot spa. The fire place was wonderful and the cabin was very comfy and warm. The communications were a little stilted and confusing, and some of the kitchen china and stores needed checking. There was no info on the facilities, I have to say the doors got me, lol, we got there in the end. A stove dial was broken and super hard to turn off. The spa also went on and off all night (perhaps it just needs a quick heat early morning instead?) which was a bit challenging for the kids in the bedroom next to the spa. Many thanks

Such a beautiful spot! A great way to separate from the stress of work, COVID, whatever it is you need to get away from - this is the place to unwind, connect with nature, and recharge. My only complaint is that we were asked to provide personal information (such as copies of drivers licence) to gain access to the accommodation which was not outlined as a requirement when we booked. Some aspects of the property were in need of attention, such as broken flyscreens and cracked tiles but this was minor and overall the accommodation was neat, clean, and visually appealing.

Wilderness house
Great house if you want wilderness and being close to nature. Would of liked to be told about the road closure taking us off road for a few km’s prior to booking. House had great facilities and loved the integration with nature.

Perfect weekend break
What an amazing view when you walk around to the back of the house. Driving to the house up the winding road, you already know it is going to be special but it still takes your breath away when you get there. We went in summer, the swimming pool was great and all facilities well maintained. The house was comfortable and we will definitely go back. A very special place.
