Well equipped for cooking, with games, books, dvds and wifi, as well as cows and sheep to watch while looking at the lovely view of the lake and surrounds.Close enough to the centre of town to be convenient for restaurants and activities, but far enough out and away from the road to feel away from everything. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/126ac643-350e-4249-85e1-547c8aa74f14-1768868066400.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Allyn S.
