We enjoyed staying in the cabin. It was not super clean but clean enough to quickly do it ourselves.

Very good value. Wide open spaces outside for camping and regattas. Clean and tidy shared kitchen. Off-road cycling options right to the door. Friendly reception. Guests must clean their units before leaving (I agree) but it looks like it's not always done well.

Lovely setting on the lake, with spacious cabins and great hot water. Friendly staff helped us get on WiFi. A few features could improve the experience: a table and a few chairs, a rubbish bin, and instructions for the heater in the chalet; a microwave, bowls, and dish soap in the shared kitchen; and a clearly marked after-hours key drop.

I was surprised to be given a cleaning check list at check-in advising that we were expected to clean the entire cabin ourselves prior to leaving or incur an additional charge. While the cabin appeared clean and tidy when we arrived, we couldn't help but wonder if it had just been cleaned by the previous guests and not by professional cleaners. The heater did not work, so it was a cold night's stay. Could do with some pavers or path from the carpark to cabin, as we had to cross a muddy lawn.
