There are no trees or fences to provide privacy from the main house, the contiguous cabin or the hiking track that runs through the property. The .main house is barely 10mts away, we could here music coming from it at night. The other cabin is a mere 2mts away and the walking track barely 3mts from the cabin. We had to close the black out rolling curtains once we realized walkers were looking into our window directly at us in bed. Same goes for toilet use. You pretty much are in a glass display box unless every curtain is down. The bbq is shared use, there are no mountain views from the property and the front yard had all sorts of things lying around such as roofing iron, a wheelbarrow and even a pitched tent. All in all we felt like we were in a trailer park/junk yard, but in a nicely put together caravan. It was difficult to get in touch with the owners, most replies were automated messages and the person in the property merely manages things for them. We booked 2 nights, stayed for one since we had arrived late and left the second day. We are still waiting to hear back to arrange a refund. ##### María C.
