Delicious breakfast and dinner are included, cooked by the owners. The island has about 220 people and 2800+ cows. Bike is free for use.

  • “The owners’ hospitality was superb. The owner took us for a walk to see the sky full of stars at night. The dishes are also great. Beds might be a bit uncomfortable for those who are not familiar with futon.”
