Location, peace and quiet, high specification of the inside. It was easy to get to Wastwater. If you are into star gazing and you are lucky like us to get a clear night it was awe inspiring. The sky was so clear and we could see so much bybthe naked eye. Its a small space but this made it fun. Wish I had packed binoculars!! Honestly compared to the sky in Liverpool where I live it was fantastic!
