    "It was an amazing weekend. The forest seemed enchanted and waking up to the bird calls in the morning was fantastic. The forest cabins was rustic but with everything one needs. I wish I could always live like this. David is truly exceptional, friendly and with a wealth of knowledge about the fauna and flora in the area. I am defenitly going back there again."
