Location was excellent to do the walks. The bad things about the cabin were the shower curtain too short which resulted to water splashing out to the floor and the hot water which most of the time turned hot then cold then hot.

Our cabin was small, however had everything you needed for a comfortable stay! the decor is quite dated, but very comfortable. There was extremely adequate heating, including electric blankets and headlamps in the bathroom. It is everything you need, to make a good base for exploring the area. I would stay there again.
