5 mints

Q:
How do-able would it be to get to the waterfall with young children? I’ve read in most reviews the walks are difficult but not sure if ‘the walks’ are for scenery which my 3 & 4 year old wouldn’t be much interested in, or to get to the actual waterfall. Basically I’d like to take the kids for a little paddle :D

Yes. We stayed there twice. Both over Christmas/new year. Probably 10 years + ago. The accommodation itself wasn’t what you’d call luxurious (really needed updating but Phil may well have done that now) but being wrapped up in snuggly blankets, in the rocking chairs on the balcony, watching the snow fall was heavenly. Only reason we’ve not done it since was we ended up moving from London to the next village! If you are going to stay, in my opinion the depths of winter are your best bet as it’s sadly carnage up there during the summer months. Far too many people.
