Everything you need in the camping hut. Great little kitchen with fridge, hob, sink, bathroom (shower,wc,basin), sleeping area, table and sofa). Size nice for 2 people, any more in one cabin and you'd need to know you don't annoy each other.
Electricity usage/price in summer very reasonable.

Amazing view.
