Response from the owner
Thank you for your review, I’m glad you enjoyed your stay and would love for you to return. We actually have lights right round the edge of the whole decking the hot tub is on, the switch is next to the cooker inside the cabin, I’m sorry you didn’t realise they were there, I will make sure I include information on how to locate the switch for the outside lights in my cabin details in future. Thank you for highlighting.
