    Amazing to me that this place is so inexpensive given it is situated right on the water with prime lake views. The self catering facilities and kitchens were fantastic. The cafe/bar also had great views and was a nice place to relax. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. From our dorm room (my partner and I had it to ourselves due to low season) there was a beautiful view of the lake. 10/10 loved it.
