during the months of may, june and july the bush covered cliff above our house shades us completely from the winter sun ( which is why we are lucky enough to have glowworms)
we recommend staying between august and april (although it is warm and cosy in the winter with the fire roaring or the heat pump on.)

if you are arriving at night, make sure that you have some kind of torch or phone flashlight as you will need to negotiate the bridge and path to the house.
