The first choice of accommodation is a well decorated rondawel (left) with en-suite bathroom. Some rondawels have a double bed (bottom left) and others two single beds (below). We do our best to ensure that couples get a rondawel with a double bed, but can not guarantee it.
The lodge also has chalets with two rooms (two single beds) that share a bathroom, and another room (double bed) with en-suite bathroom . These chalets are perfect for families , or a small group travelling together.
