5 rzeczy, które warto wiedzieć przed wyjazdem
💡The 'Flintstones' branding history—it used to be much more kitschy.
💡The resident farm animals (chickens, cats) roam freely in the garden.
💡Some 'cave' rooms are actually constructed from stone blocks, not dug out (which is actually better for air quality).
💡The WiFi signal struggles to penetrate the thickest cave walls.
💡The bathroom ventilation fans are linked to the lights in some rooms, meaning noise if you need a night light.
