Wonderful stay
It’s a wonderful and cozy experience to easily be close to nature. We enjoyed everything in the Skyscape. Even the local strawberry jam and honey, everything is so great. BTW, if you stay here, you wouldn’t go outside or go hiking for a sunrise. You could just lie on your comfortable and warm bed to enjoy it.

Can’t wait to come back!
Amazing stay and absolutely worth the drive! We were lucky enough to stay on a very clear night and I’ve never seen that many stars. There is a lot of attention to detail in the house design and complementary items. From a delicious breakfast to apps for star gazing, it was perfect. And the outdoor space was incredible (and so many sheep)! Loved it and would absolutely be back for a longer stay.
