    “A huge thank you to the hosts for creating such a secluded and peaceful escape from everyday life.”

    We went to Dragonfly with intentions of walking, site seeing, visiting various locations and it all went out the window on day one because of how peaceful this location is. It truly is cosy cabin vibes all over. The log fire and hot tub are brilliant and really add to that touch of luxury. We took our Labrador who is trained not to run off, probably the only thing to consider if you’re bringing a pet is the lake, the sheep and your dogs recall.

    We went to Dragonfly with intentions of walking, site seeing, visiting various locations and it all went out the window on day one because of how peaceful this location is. It truly is cosy cabin vibes all over. The log fire and hot tub are brilliant and really add to that touch of luxury. We took our Labrador who is trained not to run off, probably the only thing to consider if you’re bringing a pet is the lake, the sheep and your dogs recall. Given it’s a pet friendly cabin it’s so clean, no dog hair etc. The description is very clear that you have to make a small walk through a field, bare this in mind for footwear some walking boots or wellies wouldn’t go amiss in the winter months but isn’t a issue and in our opinion add to the whole secret cabin vibe. All the basics available for cooking pots and pans etc, although we bring our own when it a listing is self-catering. Thank you for making our first wedding anniversary perfect.
