Sleep well, wake up to a view

A family guesthouse at Logu i Kishës, run by the Polia brothers since 2002, open April to November. It describes home-cooked meals for guests and offers help with transport and gear for the valley. Rooms are booked by phone or through the form on its own site; it publishes no nightly rate.
