Really cosy with modern facilities, fully furnished with everything you might need away from home. We had a lovely time. Only negative was, despite following the instructions, we couldn't get the shower hot. Would highly recommend the site and the cabin to others.

On directions there is no signpost to Swarland - but there is a sign to Log Cabins. Lovely kitchen and great bed but struggled with the combi boiler water heating system. Front door & handle is a problem but I guess the owner knows this. Lots of thoughtful touches but we think this chalet needs a bit of a makeover. The one next door looked better. Hope these comments help.
