"The cabin was clean and had everything we needed. However the bedroom had only a narrow gap around the bed, which, as I have some difficulty moving around in tight spaces, was a bit of a problem. Similarly the bathroom was extremely small and anyone large or with difficulties walking would find it awkward to move around in."
