    For us, perhaps crockery and cutlery. I knew we were going to be remote so brought cheese and crackers for dinner.

    Everything, the view, the room, and the living space was fabulous. The view is epic.

    This place is an absolute gem of a place to stay. The accommodation is lovely, the bed is super comfortable. The view is sublime and it was lovely to have the dogs around occasionally. Dependent on the reasons why you are staying, keep in mind, if looking to book, there is only a jug and small fridge available in the studio so nowhere to heat food up/prepare easy to eat food. This accommodation suited my needs while here. Only thing was I wasn't here long enough to really enjoy the beautiful mountains, stunning sunsets/sunrise and surrounds. Many thanks Adrienne and Phill 💐

    Everything was fantastic. The owners are very friendly and mindful. There are exceptional views to take in all around. This studio doesn't have curtains so you get to experience being outside snuggled up. There is no TV so bring a book or whatever. You could hear the owners a little but it is super quiet during the evening. Tea and coffee is provided and some lovely biscuits so if you need a snack, bring it with you. There is a small fridge also.The drive up does include a gravel section where some delightful dogs await. We will be coming back . Loved this place . It is very special

    A toaster would have been a handy bonus but not essential.

    It was an incredible place to stay. The view was remarkable and amazing to wake up to with the large curtain free windows that maximised the view. It was peaceful, the hosts were so friendly, great to talk to and so helpful, the dogs were so lovely to interact with, the room was modern, clean and comfortable. Super handy to have the mini fridge, kettle, (appreciated the tea, coffee and biscuits). It was great to be able to explore the property a little and just take in the view with no technology distractions (though wifi was good). We would definitely stay there again! Highly recommended.

    Nothing, it was perfect.

    The view was just amazing, you can just sit there for hours and stare out over the vast area. The dogs were very friendly and good company, the owners are happy to keep them away if you don’t like dogs though. We also walked around the property and looked through the vegetable gardens which are pretty impressive. The hosts were welcoming and after arriving didn’t see them so it was like we had the place to ourselves. In the morning we had a great chat with them and it was nice to find out about tue area from people that live there.

    Be aware there is about a half mile of winding dirt road to the house. The address was hard to see on a post at the driveway. There is a gate that opens when you push a button

    Stunning view on top of mountain. Allowed early check in. Friendly dogs that did not bark. Comfortable and modern
