Other things to note
We can be a little tricky to find so it's best to have navigation or a map with you. We can always help you prior to arrival if required. The drive is a little steep but you have plenty of turning space when you are parked. The plot has been built on a hillside.

We have renovated the property with large door openings and on a ground level with a ramp access to one of the doors from outside.

Please note that if you are new to Airbnb and have no feedback we would like to have a chat to you prior to accepting your booking request. This lodge is very special to us and we want the guests to enjoy and love the house as much as we do.
