Mr Exeter
A really enjoyable spacious lodge and warm welcome by the owners. Swimming pool in a lovely sheltered garden and trees with extensive boarded area with seats and loungers. Swam every day. A great deal to visit in the area.

A beautiful location in the middle of the woods. Peace and quiet, just birds chirping and pretty dragon flies all over . The property was well equipped and very very ! Clean. The swimming pool amazing and cleaned every day by the owner. The owners were very friendly and helpful, we had full privacy even though the owners live next to the lodge. We would like to go again next year.
