Beautiful views! Beds were really comfy. The lodge had everything you would need. Loved the little welcome pack as I'm not organised and didn't think about washing up! My son even made a friend - a duck that visited us every night! Would highly recommend to all my family and friends.

They were so helpful and wanting for the stay to be enjoyed. The lodge was beautiful. We (my partner and two small children) all loved it. Only suggestion would be to let guests know to bring plastic glasses for outside/the hot tub, a mat for the back door for when you come in from the tub and a pair of scissors in the cutlery drawer!! :-) still a 10/10 experience, just thought the above feedback could be useful!

The lodge has great fittings and many kitchen utensils you would need. The water pressure from the showers was so weak, especially the en-suite, meant that the showers were cold as there wasnât much water to cover you and my wife couldnât rinse out conditioner from her long hair so would have to do it from the taps in the sink which wasnât ideal. If the water pressure was sorted it would have got 5 out of 5! It was slightly annoying as we had seen previous reviews stating the same with a response saying the maintenance team will take care of it and it is clearly an ongoing issue still that needs resolving.
