Klein, eng aber okay
Für maximal 4 Personen geeignet, aber recht beengt. Es gibt keinen Tisch, an dem man gemeinsam die Mahlzeiten einnehmen kann - was man in einem Selbstversorgerhaus erwarten können müsste! Außerdem fehlt weitestgehend die Möglichkeit, etwas zum Trocknen aufzuhängen. Bei kaltem Wetter haben die beiden kleinen Elektro-Heizkörper Mühe, das Haus warm zu bekommen. Grundsätzlich ist die Stromversorgung nicht optimal: man benötigt genügend 1-Pfund-Münzen, um nicht plötzlich im Dunkeln zu sitzen (täglich 3 Pfund sollte man durchaus einkalkulieren, wenn man kocht, duscht und ein warmes Haus haben möchte). Die Lage ist recht zentral und dennoch sehr ruhig und schön - mit Blick zum Ben Nevis. Alles in allem ist das Häuschen für einen 1-wöchigen Aufenthalt durchaus attraktiv, für kleine Kinder ist es aufgrund der Wendeltreppe jedoch nicht zu empfehlen.
