If allowing dogs provide a water bowl.Bathroom sink is so small very hard to use.Parking is difficult once unloaded and luggage carried to the lodge, which for some would be difficult, you then have to park even further away.Overall a little disappointed.

Stayed at this lovely little place for a long weekend at the beginning of October. Easy to find, quiet location.Fantastic view from the upstairs lounge, with the facilities within the lodge more than enough for our stay.Well worth booking.
