If you enjoy hiking, stargazing, cycling or bird watching, this is a perfect base, with lots for all ages to explore. Lovingly built by the owners themselves over 3 years, the high level of detail and care taken over this property's layout is obvious. The large, welcoming hallway gives way to a sizeable, comfortable living room.
