8/10 Good
"There was nothing particularly wrong with the place, however, we were a little underwhelmed with the accommodation. The cabin was a good size, but felt quite dated and could definitely use some updating. The view from Cabin 3 was also quite impacted by Cabin 2 and an overgrown tree, which was disappointing given the location. The cabin was clean and the staff were efficient, although they weren’t particularly friendly. Overall, there was nothing wrong with our stay, but it just didn’t quite live up to our expectations."
