    The hut has everything that I needed but I did bring a comfy lounge chair to sit outside with! I agree with a previous reviewer that the mattress needs replacing but otherwise it was and amazing place to stay.

    Spoke to the lady who owned it and she was lovely. We will be back. Thank you so much for a very peaceful enjoyable stay

  • Joani

    Great if you're looking to detach from the rat race for a while. I would however recommend that the owners consider buying a new mattress as it is very uncomfortable. The bedding, towels and kitchen towels could do with a refresh too.
