Please bring what you need with you in terms of food and drink, and plan to shop when out for the day. The nearest shops are 8 miles down a winding single-lane mountain road.
There is no TV but a good internet service.
Water supply is direct from the mountain stream and filtered through the natural wild peat bog and has a brown tint like the local lakes and streams. It is beautifully soft to shower in. Locals tend to boil the water for tea and coffee and use bottled water for drinking. Please bring 5 litres of bottled drinking water with you when you come.
We can have the fire lit for you on arrival. Solid fuel for the fires is supplied.
Cooking is by bottled gas and will sometimes need replacing. Water filters also need attention from time to time. The neighbours Martina and Jack are available to help if you run into any problems.
