A view to die for

Loved our little dome. Plenty of room for 2, lovely shower, basic kitchen with stovetop and microwave. Heat pump with some restrictions because of the off-grid situation. The chance to have a lovely bath under the stars. Great cold brew coffee and cream. If youre not particularly mobile, it might be difficult walking to a couple of the domes. And if you can't face a composting toilet ip close, move on. However, we loved our night there. We left the curtains open and slept with the moonlit sky all night. Ella was lovely, and communication excellent.
