"Lovely rainforest location! Comfortable rooms and good kitchen facilities. Loved walking in the forest and observing the animals during the nightly feeding. I will note that the shower was frequently cold in the evenings and very low pressure."
"The setting for this tiny house makes up for any shortcomings. The views are spectacular and the surrounding country is beautiful.
However, be prepared that this really is a tiny house! There wasn't room to put a normal sized suitcase so we ferried things from the car.
Luckily, the weather is always gorgeous and sitting outside looking over the valley was incredibly relaxing. "
