Spacious log chalet with free WIFI, great for a few families

A spacious log chalet with a large living room. The log burner fills the chalet with a glowing warmth and it’s lovely to retire here after a day of outdoor fun. The kitchen is open plan and fully equipped to dish up a lovely meal.

The large living room offers ample space for everyone to relax. One leather lounge settee is focussed around the log burner which fills the chalet with a glowing warmth and it’s lovely to retire here after a day of outdoor fun. The other settee is set up around a TV with freeview. The kitchen has an oven/hob, big fridge/freezer and dishwasher.

The 2 bathrooms, one upstairs and one downstairs, have a shower, basin and toilet each.
One upstairs bedroom (with a double and single bed) opens up onto a large balcony with fantastic views. The downstairs bedroom has a comfortable queensize bed. The big bedroom upstairs has an american kingsize bed and 2 singles; the other in between bedroom contains 3 singles and extra matresses. An extra TV in this room gives the kids their own space and leaves the adults in peace downstairs. The mezzanine floor offers a quiet corner to relax with a book and a view to the garden.

The large lawns around the chalet offer plenty of space to play games both in summer and winter. Free WIFI is included. Dogs are allowed but need to stay outside.
On the outdoor deck is a spa which can be booked for use ($80 for the stay); 48 hr notice is required.
Note that bedlinens/towels are not standard included but can be arranged on request.
