    Location and comfort The cabin was lovely and warm, with beautiful gardens to walk through. It is also located very close to the township and some tourist hotspots. Bonus having a fabulous restaurant just down the path.

    The location was quiet and peaceful. The gardens are beautiful. We enjoyed a nice dinner at the on-site restaurant. The on-site laundry at no charge was a great perk.
