Very remote location and house very spacious (both were something we were looking for). We couldn't find a plug for one of the baths / hot tub and the BBQ didn't seem to be finished being built yet. A couple of rooms with twin beds rather than doubles may be worth considering. A few more chairs and a bigger table in the dining area / outside area would also be useful. Overall a very pleasant stay and the views are out of this world! Thanks.

10 in our party (not 5 couples) so it would really help if there were one or two camp style beds to cater for small children as the house only has 5 double beds and one cot.. facilities need slight updating as crockery is mixed and some chipped.. It has everything you need in terms of dishwasher, washing machine etc. Photos show dining table for 6 but there are extra chairs around and some breakfast bar stools. house pretty clean except for cooker hood which needs a thorough clean. Overall great location and house is value for money
