Cluster of cottage based 'rooms' set in the trees just a short walk from 'sky high'. We had theb loft room, which was a 3 large rooms: lounge, kitchen, loft bedroom plus full bathroom & spa. Great for 'getting away' as the 'accomodations' are separate & individual. Kitchen has all you need for breakfast including bacon & eggs. The port & Lindt chocolates are a nice touch.
