What a wonderful week and such a warm welcome from Heli who clearly knows the balance between being available if needed and allowing privacy to enjoy this super cabin and pool.
We would recommend a car. It allowed us to make the short trips to the coast, the lakes and to visit nearby towns. The village of Monda is a 10 min drive and though tight parking, it is a place to visit for a coffee and snack - there are a few restaurants in the village. However, this little oasis was so restful that we felt disinclined to leave it and self-catered for the whole week, much to our surprise.
We had no trouble negotiating the narrow steep road which led to the property and there are a few steps down to get to the log cabin (and therefore up).
During our week’s stay, temperatures on some days exceeded 40C and so the cabin became very hot but the immediate surrounds, with plenty of shaded areas and a number of sunbeds in different spots allowed for outdoor living - and of course the pool was a godsend. There’s a comfy sofa on the veranda and an outdoor dining area next to the BBQ, great for late evening dining. The cabin had everything we needed to be self-sufficient after the odd visit to the supermarket in Coin.
The fan and an aircon unit, were effective during the evening, and as nighttime temperatures dropped, sleeping wasn’t an issue (and what a comfy bed!).
Away from the hustle and bustle of life, we will certainly be visiting here again. Thank you, Heli, and see you soon.
