Guests that stayed at this property said
Guests are generally impressed with the cleanliness of the lodge, noting a very pleasant smell upon arrival and excellent finishing touches. However, minor issues like finding debris in the sofa were mentioned.
The lodge boasts a stunning view across the lake and is situated in a lovely, quiet place, making the location highly commendable.
While the lodge is well-received, some guests mentioned uncomfortable mattresses and issues with hot water, suggesting room for improvement in comfort.
Facilities are generally good, but there have been significant concerns about the lack of hot water, which is a crucial aspect of maintenance. Bar and restaurant hours are also noted to be erratic.
There is no mention of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness from the owners, so it is not possible to provide a score in this category.

Pleasure to stay in.

Mattresses could do with new ones as quite uncomfortable and twix rappers and hair bands down the cushion side of sofa that came out as sat down. For some reason the hot water started hot then went cold. We had to boil a kettle to wash the pots and have freezing cold showers which was not nice. I would expect a partial refund for the lack of hot water. Other than that it was nice place to stay.
