The Summerhouse was exactly what Mary said it was, a very basic cabin in a sublime forest setting at a very reasonable price. Comfortable twin single beds, plenty of bedding, unpowered with facilities a hundred metres away at the main house. The facilities in the main house were very satisfactory and freely accessible. Mary and her sister were totally welcoming. The house was full of character and very tastefully decorated to match its late Victorian heritage. We were welcome to fill our thermos and water bottles each morning, able to partake of a generous continental breakfast featuring home made muesli, bread and spreads and had a number of interesting chats.
A headlight or battery powered lamp is an essential piece of equipment.
