About this property
Ridgeway log cabin, quiet and secluded getaway ideal for a family.
This log chalet is simply a gem hidden in the quiet valley.
Ridgeway lodge is perfect romantic hideaway tucked away in a bush setting down a dead end road. The log chalet enjoys all day sun and offers beautiful mountain and hilltop views. Outdoor decks provide a haven for relaxation and listening to the abundant birdlife whilst soaking up the fresh mountain air.
The spacious indoor living area is a pleasure to relax in, with a cozy log fire, flat screen TV/DVD player. Enjoy the evenings all snug and cosy whilst listening to your favourite music or watching a movie; or soak up the warmth of the beautiful fire and simply relax and enjoy watching the flames and glowing embers.
The large kitchen is very well equipped, with a dishwasher, microwave, oven, stove top and large fridge / freezer.The bathroom has a large shower, toilet and a quirky stone vanity with rustic mirror.
A large master bedroom with queen sized bed sets the scene for concluding a great evening. The bedroom opens up to a balcony with a track to the garden. The second bedroom offers 2 single beds. The mezzanine is set up as a second lounge with a big TV screen/DVD player. The sofa here folds out to a double bed. This space opens up to a deck with magnificent views of the mountain.
NO EV-charging permitted as the electrical system is not wired up for this.
Enjoy walking, skiing or mountain biking or book a local sauna. There is plenty of space under the carport for hanging your ski or other sporting gear. Or just stay around the log chalet, relax or explore the hidden areas and find the river in the surrounding bush.
Note that bedlinens/towels are not standard included but can be arranged on request.
