10 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2026
The location is absolutely beautiful. I love the vibe at the lodge.
10 / 10Outstanding·May 2026
Everything. The lodge is located in a remote area at the bottom of a mountain. It is secluded and private with nature being your only neighbor. The couple who runs the place were lovely. The views are spectacular.
The journey is not for the faint hearted. Plan accordingly.
8 / 10Excellent·Mar 2026
Very well equipped kitchen with communal “left over” food. Ovens and hobs and kettles. We didn’t need it but can imagine the log burner stove in the winter would be amazing.
No charging facility in the room after 10pm
