PLEASE NOTE the outdoor bath is not a spa, it is an outdoor soaking tub heated by a thermosiphon. You will need to bring firewood with you to heat this bath. Heating times are weather dependent but vary from 1.5-3.5 hours
Guest access
PLEASE NOTE THE DRIVEWAY IS QUITE STEEP.
There is parking for one vehicle under cover in the garage. However I recommend parking on the flat near the tank and on the driveway if you are not a confident driver.
To access the trails in the public land at the rear of the property the gate code is 2010.
