Access (1)
Do I need studless tyres in winter?
Yes. The site is at 1,100 m, and snow and icy roads are expected from around November to April. Please be sure to fit winter tyres or carry chains.

Can I fish?

Cancellation (1)
What should I know about cancellations?
Cancelling early check-in on the day incurs 100 per cent of the service charge, and no refund is made if traffic or other circumstances mean you arrive at the normal time. Please see the user guide on the official website for other cancellation terms.

Can I check in early?
There is a paid early check-in service. It is not available on some dates depending on bookings, so please check the season calendar on the official website before applying. It may be unavailable on days when many guests stayed the previous night.
