Place was decent enough for 2 night stay, but was charged a bomb to be put up in a caravan. A repurposed caravan has been setup as a 2 bedder home, but it’s not near a home at all. Hope host updates the pictures with exterior view and not just internal only.

We really enjoyed our 3 nights in this fabulous (and beautiful) tiny house. Perfect for 2 adults and 2 teenagers. Fully kitted out kitchen. Excellent shower! Had the best nights sleep and loved looking at the stars through the skylight above the bed. Stephen and Skye were great hosts - very responsive to random questions during our stay. High recommend!
