The accommodation is really cosy for two people wanting a tranquil getaway from the hustle and bustle of life. The property is perfect for chilling out and enjoying the beautiful valley views that can be seen straight out of the windows or enjoy sunrise from the luxury of being in bed. The kitchen is much better equipped than described. The bathroom is perfectly adequate. The bed is really comfortable and there is plenty of hanging space. Thank you for a fantastic stay. ##### Mark G. Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Jess M. 5 Jan 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful spot Lovely location, and a really nice, well thought out unit. Only issue was that we happened to be there when it was really windy - the unit shook a bit with the wind and there was an intermittent vibrating noise (possibly from the roof?) that made for a bit of a restless night for the light sleeper. Otherwise brilliant. ##### Jess M. Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Serena W. 15 Jan 2024 Disliked: Check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### False Advertising DISSAPOINTING Only booked the place as it had a spa and view otherwise would have just booked at a top 10. Traveled 8 hours and got there and no spa at all. The place was advertised as having a spa. Looked on line when I got to the place and was still being advertised to book with a spa included. Rang owner and she said that in the description the spa was only for use at a certain time of the year so I sent screen shots to her as there was no such description and was false advertising. Got money back and traveled 8 hours home the same day. Hope they have changed the description and make it clear for other people for the future as I wouldn't want anyone else being disappointed and wasting peoples time and travel. ##### Serena W. Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### INA Elisabeth B. 12 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wunderschöne Aussicht ins Tal mit liebevoller und aufmerksamer Gastgeberin Ruhig und entspannt ##### INA Elisabeth B. Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Dominic 25 Apr 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Da die Unterkunft ein umgebauter Container ist, bietet sie naturgemäss nicht allzu viel Platz, ist aber überraschend umfangreich ausgestattet. Der Weg zum Studio führt über eine am Ende recht steile Schotterstrasse, was bei ungünstiger Witterung resp. je nach Auto nicht ganz einfach sein dürfte, dafür ist die Aussicht vom Studio auf dem Hügel hervorragend. ##### Dominic Stayed 1 night in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Monet 14 Oct 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Absolutely beautiful stay! Would highly recommend. The views are stunning and peaceful ##### Monet Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2022 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels in Cincinnati](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cincinnati-Hotels.d178249.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels with Pool in Rhodes Old Town](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rhodes-Old-Town-Rhodes-Hotels-Hotels-With-Pool.0-n6169768-0-tHotelswithPool.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Motel One Amsterdam](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Amsterdam-Hotels-Motel-One-Amsterdam.h11229106.Hotel-Information) > > [Flipflop Surfing Playa Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Calvia-Hotels-Surfing-Playa.h2156351.Hotel-Information) > > [Anglers paradise and great family holiday place](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Makarora-Hotels-Anglers-Paradise-And-Great-Family-Holiday-Place.h37278832.Hotel-Information) > > [All-Inclusive Hotels in Saudi Arabia](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Saudi-Arabia-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d157-tAllInclusiveHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Tongariro Suites at The Rocks](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Horopito-Hotels-Tongariro-Suites-At-The-Rocks.h9679404.Hotel-Information) > > [Richmond Holiday Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Richmond-Hotels-Richmond-Holiday-Park.h29218591.Hotel-Information) > > [Family-Friendly Hotels in St. Julian's](https://www.expedia.co.uk/St-Julians-Hotels-Family-Friendly-Hotel.0-0-d4217-tFamilyFriendlyHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels near Kynance Cove](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kynance-Cove-Hotels.0-l6094415-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Rainforest Retreat](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Franz-Josef-Glacier-Hotels-Rainforest-Retreat.h7088168.Hotel-Information) > > [Rosewood Matakauri](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Queenstown-Hotels-Matakauri-Lodge.h1097561.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Oxenholme Station](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oxenholme-Station-Hotels.d6042105.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [htop Royal Star & SPA](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lloret-De-Mar-Hotels-Htop-Royal-Star-SPA.h916602.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Ross-on-Wye](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ross-On-Wye-Hotels.d5672.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [ibis Rotorua](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rotorua-Hotels-Ibis-Rotorua.h1131218.Hotel-Information) > > [Paddington House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Warrington-Hotels-Paddington-House-Hotel.h65479617.Hotel-Information) > > [Macdonald Dona Lola Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mijas-Hotels-Macdonald-Dona-Lola-Club.h4046594.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from St. Peter (JER) to Edinburgh (EDI)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/jer/edi/jersey-to-edinburgh) > > [Flights from Arusha (JRO) to Serengeti (SEU)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/jro/seu/kilimanjaro-to-serengeti-national-park) > > [Flights from London (LHR) to Southend-on-Sea (SEN)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/sen/london-to-london) > > [Flights from Newcastle-upon-Tyne (NCL) to Tunis (TUN)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/ncl/tun/newcastle-to-tunis) > > [Flights from Paisley (GLA) to Los Angeles (LAX)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/gla/lax/glasgow-to-los-angeles) > > [Flights from Delhi (DEL) to Pune (PNQ)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/del/pnq/delhi-to-pune) ### Activities > [Things to do in Rethymnon](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Rethymnon.d6046550.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Holiday Rentals > [Gatwick Holiday Rentals](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gatwick-Holiday-Rentals.d182523.Travel-Guide-HolidayRentals) ### General > [Visit Noja](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Noja.dx6048982)
