Cabin was spacious and in a good location. Everything was clean but some of the furniture was a little worn and some of the fabric stained. As it was self catering it would have been helpful to have a t-towel to be able to dry up when washing up.

Such a fun place to stay. We were in the glamping tent and had a fire pit with an amazing view of the lake. The whole area was very nice and the tent was comfortable. Bathroom very basic but it is a camp site. We went as a couple but I think if you went as a group, it’d be really fun to all get a tent (there were 5 in our hub), as they all share a little kitchen tent and the fire!
