Mikaela is a brilliant host, really friendly and went the extra mile for us due to the track to the cabin being resurfaced. She was helping us with our luggage due to not being able to drive down, we were also offered an extra night due to this. The location is just amazing, well out of the way but only around 15 minute drive to Tesco and other shops. The Cabin was lovely with all needs catered for, bed was very comfortable and the hot tub was very nice especially after all the walking we did and we were able to watch the sunset

maybe deck chairs type seating outside would be good, otherwise we couldnât have asked for more. Watching the sun set over the mountain in total peace was amazing! We would definitely recommend and return.
