10/10 Excellent
"The property is amazing, the rooms are pretty spacious with a great bathtub in the bathroom. High chance of seeing northern lights as the place is in a pretty isolated spot and they also have a whatsapp group where they add pictures of northern lights if anyone spots it that particular night. The downside of this is, the drive can get a bit sketchy in the night but can assure you the property is worth it. There is ample amount of parking but no lift, so be prepared to carry your luggage 1 flight of stairs. Breakfast is not included but you can have coffee from their machine. Over all, our stay was extremely comfortable and lovely. Would def go again!"
