Description:

Accommodation: 30

This is the second overnight hut on the Giant's Cup Trail and the best of all.  The doors have combination locks so you will need to get the numbers from the office at Cobham. A large, open cooking and dining area is provided under the main roof. There is an outside ablution block and scullery with gas-fired hot water. There are no cooking facilities and open fires are not permitted, so take your own hiking stove along with you. You will also need to carry your rubbish away with you. There is even a nice, sloping lawn in front of the hut on which to lie and sun tan.

Being at the bottom of a valley, the hut has a somewhat restricted though still picturesque view.
