Our wagon was warm and inviting with everything we could think of.
The convivial owners warmed up the hot tub, allowing us to enjoy it under the stars.
The only downside was the bathroom/shower which were a bit far.
If you go there, do speak with the owners. On top of them being super nice and friendly, they have a lot of knowledge about the region, its history, places to go and lots of cool stuff around!
