Guest Report

[Nicola Hart]

The setting for Carpe Diem is fantastic, the view from the bed and tarrace is stunning. The birds visit regularly incuding the Mott Mott. We missed the Humming Birds but the Fruit Bats visited every evening. Our first night was during a bad storm which took out the power so we sat on the terrace in pitch black drinking beer and watching an amazing display by the fireflies, a first for us and to begin with we thought it was villagers with torches in the woods (they were that bright) but finally realised there were far too many for that!

Unusually for self-contained accommodation the bed was fantastic, not too hard or too soft and a great size which was appreciated in the heat - we could avoid sticky contact easily!

The kitchen equipment is basic but there is all you need, although the smell of bottled gas was quite strong.

The shower was ok although the temperature of the water was not very hot.

Denzil and Doris (the guardians)are a major advantage as they know the local customs and where to go better than any review!

The main attraction of Carpe Diem is undoubtedly the terrace and the view both of which are wonderful.
