It had only the very very basic items but the town was nearby so we bought whatever we needed. The area was isolated n quiet with great views of mountain. Fireplace was nice. There was limited supply of wood (two pieced of wood), so bring yours. The house was kept nicely warm with aircon too (we visited in cold winter). Overall we had a very nice stay n would go back again. ##### Eliza F.
