Reviewer Type: Extended Group
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Good location though not easily walkable from the village. Hot tub and sauna wonderful. Quiet and nice atmosphere with the cabins well spaced.
Negative: Quite cramped for 3 adults and no room downstairs for a table to eat at, but ok eating outside in cold temperatures with the heated covered area.
Summary: Relaxing and healthy.
