I was made to feel extremely welcome. Having not read the information carefully enough I harrived up the very steep climb to the retreat breathless and exhausted - and was immediately plied with cold water and a cup of tea! I also arrived without food - again my fault for not reading the info carefully enough and helpers at the house and fellow guests shared their supper!- This is an amazing place with a unique atmosphere and beautiful location.and I was very reluctant to leave! Hoping above hope that I can go back one day.
