It's not worth going there. I do not recommend it.
I liked what I saw in the photos and in the description, not what I found there, so I can say that,
there was absolutely nothing I liked.
Based on the description and photos posted on the website, it looked like I was heading to a cottage surrounded by nature, somewhere by a stream, far from the hustle and bustle. Upon arrival, it turned out that what I got wasn't what was described. As it turned out, the cottage is located behind a private house—or, to put it simply, in the owner's garden. The bathroom is equipped with a toilet used by sitting on a seat positioned over a bag and covering the waste with sawdust. The floor in the house was wooden and had nails sticking out of it, so you could cut your foot on them. Moreover, it was clear that the owner didn't pay attention to cleanliness before the guests arrived. If he had, the house wouldn't have been full of cobwebs and spiders, both there and in the kitchen, which is located outside. It was obvious that no one there did anything to clean it even a little. We stayed for only one night, even though we had paid for two. While we were having a bonfire and eating sausages, the owners came out into the garden to have their own dinner; so, if you plan to stay there, be prepared for the fact that you won't get the privacy you paid for. We tried to get a refund for the unused night but were unsuccessful, as the owner was only willing to return the money in exchange for a positive review. We suggested that he update his listing description to avoid misleading people—offering not to leave a review at all in return—but he refused to refund the money, hence this review. When choosing to stay at Island A-Frame, keep in mind that you aren't going to a cool cabin set in the middle of nature, but rather to a glamping setup in the owner's backyard. I’ll add a few photos from our stay so you can see what you’re getting into—because you certainly wouldn't realize it from the existing description and photos.

Cool location and building however cleanliness and flooring not ideal.
Location was spot on and it looks beautiful. I do however think it is a bit more overlooked by the owners than the description states.
First off one of the rules is no shoes which is absolutely fine and we respected this. However the timber floor is so rough that my partner got a huge (4cm) splinter in his foot. The rest of the night was spent trying to get this out and having to cut quite deep to remove it. This was followed up with a couple much smaller splinters. Be warned and bring slippers.
The toilet is a compost one and the smell was really pungent throughout our stay and quite uncomfortable on the second morning. Also there is so much movement in the toilet you feel like you could fall forward.
There is a huge amount of cobwebs etc in the building, you would definitely expect some for the type of building and location but not as many as there is.

A very special weekend. We'll definitely go back!
Stunning location, great hosts, eco-friendly, on a stream with a plunge pool. so amazing to have during the recent heatwave.
Trees, birds and wildlife - song thrushes, dragonflies and beautiful trees.
Incredible relaxing and lots of places to sit (inside and out ) to enjoy the surroundings.
Outdoor kitchen with a fire pit/pizza oven. So much fun and a great place to relax and socialise.
Getting and in and out of the bedroom bunks took a bit of practice but we got used to it very quickly.

Very quiet and quirky location with an outdoor kitchenette and fire pit across from living accommodation. Lighting was fantastic and hosts did not interrupt our stay.
Facilities for cooking could have been better with use of a BBQ and more condiments
