“Lovely, peaceful stay. In a clean well presented lodge. Would definitely go back. Positive: Arrival area clearly mark, with pleasant , helpful staff. Information given on where to locate lodge on the site. Lodge was beautifully presented, clean and in a quiet part of the site. Hot tub was a great addition for relaxation. It was lovely to watched the squirrels, rabbits and birds by the small lake. It had everything you need in the kitchen and bedrooms. Restaurant was a short walk and food enjoyable. Negative: There was not much that we didn't like! Only had a problem with the leaves falling into the hot tub but a net was provided.”

“Place was stunning, so quiet and relaxing, The lodge was really beautiful, it was clean but had toothpaste marks on the taps and in the basin of one sink, splashes on the mirror too, a few cobwebs in the living room around the curtains and fireplace area. Overall it was clean and beautifully decorated.We had a nightmare finding our lodge due to arriving at 10.30pm and everywhere closed, had no directions sent prior so had no idea where to go. Had to call the out of hours number to get help, He explained it perfectly and stayed on the phone until we got into our lodge , very friendly and helpful.Would definitely stay again as any issue was quickly solved and we did enjoy our stay .Thank you”
