We stayed here for between 2-3 weeks and absolutely loved it. My son loved the loft and had a great time enjoying the forest. It’s close enough to town to grab coffee or breakfast but far enough away to enjoy some peace and quiet. The hosts are incredibly responsive and just very kind people in general. We would absolutely stay here again!
