Lovely little place and the hot tub is a fantastic bonus! Instructions given were really easy to follow and it was great to have a dedicated parking space too. I forgot to take my hairdryer so if you need one- remember to take! They provide towels, toiletries, washing up facilities, tea/coffee and even robes for the hot tub. Take some flip-flops or sliders to access from the cabin to the tub as the stones might be sharp on bare feet.It's a beautiful setting and we both felt super relaxed and had a great stay. With around a 20 minute walk to Bowness centre, it's approx. 5 for an uber but make sure to direct them to the right lane for pick up!Also, we couldn't find the external bins but they do provide bin bags.Highly recommend staying here, you won't regret it!
