This keeps it cheaper for everyone and gives more flexibility to your afternoons. If you don't have transport you are likely to be waiting or some time until a ride share places becomes available. We do not count rental cars as having your own transport!

We're big on enjoying nature and minimising our environmental impact so that's reflected in how we run the ecolodge and what we expect of you to play your part.
