We couldn't ask for anything more. Everything was there. There was a leak in the hot tub but I just called and it was fixed. Just maybe a couple of changes. A privacy fence just were the hot tub is would be nice as next door has a small decking balcony next to the hot tub. A blind up at the en- suite bathroom. And maybe a couple of cupboards in the kitchen cleared out so we can put food in them rather than in the sides. I didn't want to start moving things about. If these could be done then perfect. Lodge was so comfy l. We was out walking all day and coming back to home comforts was a bonus. Thanks for letting us stay x

It was well equipped for our needs and the hot tub was a lovely addition. The decking is probably ready for knew coat of preserve but it was nice to sit out on when the sun shone and the dog loved it. My only gripe is possibly swapping the curtains for blinds as when opened the curtains don t give you much privacy especially in the bedrooms. But overall a great stay and location.
