We loved every minute here. This is not a place for people who want airconditioned sterility or crowded cafes or lots of young backpackers swarming about. This is for people who want calm, solitude, mountain walks, incredible swimming in a pristine river or lake, beautiful views of the southern alps, etc. "The Barn" is a cozy, fairly secluded spot. The hosts were very helpful. We would love to come back for a longer stay.
