Super views from the patio areas. Need to be aware that it is about 2km up a very narrow road with very limited passing places, so it isn't suitable for popping in and out during the day.

Hard to imagine a cottage in a more spectacular location in the park. Very well situated too for exploring. Our dog loved it there, and the bed was extremely comfortable!
