9.0“Suited me. Thank You.”
+I have stayed here before so this 2nd review already tells that it is fully worth a return visit. The cabin is an independent unit on a the site of a rural home. It is basic but comprehensive at the same time. For a short stay or just overnight it has all you could reasonably expect. It is great value for money and to me it is a Gem! I haven't rated it at 10 as that suggests that it can't be beaten, I had no interaction with the hosts, there was no need to so I have not rated the Staff.
−The only thing I can say, is the 'antiquated' and random selection of DVD's for the TV. Not the end of the world really but it does help the evening go by...

−The flies! A bit more of a Bach than a cottage as represented on Booking.Com

7.0“All in all it was a good place to stay.”
+Good location just outside of town, friendly and helpful staff.
−Couldn’t get gas hob going, even though there appeared to be gas in the bottle? It wasn’t a major problem as we just used the microwave and our own portable gas cooker.

9.0“A very Generous Host.”
+Our welcome by the owners, 2 young boys { 7 & 8 } was excellent. We had a very good chat with the owner when he came to the Cabin. The facilities were very useful and the full oven. A large selection of DVDs were available to view as well as normal TV channels. A very generous host.
−Would not be accessible by wheelchair.

2.0“Not worth the price paid and refund is in order.”
+The only good thing was it was quiet and the exceptional greeting I got from the chicken and cat. The chicken jumped into my car.
−No hot water. Gas stove did not work. Woke up to big cockroach on the kitchen counter.
