Liked: Cleanliness
The location was amazing, the bunk house was lovely and clean. It had everything that you needed. There were only 2 issues that we had as a group of mixed age ranges. The stairs were very steep and we had to help a member down due to mobility problems. The toilet being downstair in the living/dinning area, very little privacy and it was a bit of a nightmare when you went in the middle of the night because of the stairs. But that is more a us problem as we should of checked that out properly.Overall the place is fab.
