Everything you need for a hiking weekend and great value for money: same price as a campsite but we got a private room with private bathroom, great kitchen facilities, also serves food and drinks. Friendly staff too!

Everything! Cheaper than camping! Better location than camping, you'd have to really, really like pitching a tent sorting out all your stuff etc etc etc. We rocked-up and had none of that, booked brekkie and went on our merry way......

It was clean and kept well. Food was sound. The staff were exceptionally great. Helped me out as my phone charger died on my 8 peaks challenge and borrowed me one so I could charge my phone and ensure I met my alarm the next morning to set off...
