The fine print

Luggage transport from the car park to the lodge can be arranged. Please contact the property using the contact details found in the booking confirmation.
Please note that the property is self-catering. There is a fully equipped guest kitchen in the main building. The nearest supermarkets are located in Westport.
The bedrooms are located in separate buildings, a short walk from the main building.
The lodge is off the grid and the only power points are found in the main building. Please inform the property in advance if you need to run a CPAP device in your bedroom, so that arrangements can be made.
