"Cabin has a bad smell (note on wall stated it was recently varnished but did not have this smell). Shower went hot then cold on and off which made for a very unpleasant experience. Overall i would recommend to get an ensuite and skip the cabin to stay. Friendly staff but overall not a pleasant stay ..."

"This cabin is in a beautiful location at the top of a hill. It’s best to give yourself a little time to get up the winding roads, especially if there’s fog. When we arrived, we were met by our host who is very friendly and helpful. We felt very welcome and enjoyed our conversation with him. He is a big LOTR fan so we had a fun time talking about filming locations and personal stories he had. The cabin is well appointed and we found the electric blanket and space heater were on when we arrived. There are some nice amenities for eating a meal, having coffee, and there’s cereal for breakfast. There is also a small fridge. Do bring any other food you want to eat because there’s nothing super close. We walked down the dirt path at night to view the glow worms and also had the chance to see lots of stars and the Milky Way. The private bathroom is just around the corner from the cabin, an easy 10 second walk and not spooky in the dark - it’s easy to turn on lights to find your way. It was clean, comfortable and warm. This place is very peaceful and homey and we would absolutely stay here again. It was a highlight of our trip."
