The modern kitchen and social spaces are particularly well-received, making it an ideal setting for family gatherings and celebrations.
Most guests found The Lodge to be very comfortable and well-maintained, though there were isolated comments about the need for cleaning in certain areas, such as a cupboard and the dishwasher. These seem to be exceptions rather than the rule.

Beautiful home, well appointed with more than enough space inside and out for the group size. The kitchen and ground floor dining/drawing room/utility room having a flat floor makes it a treat to use and enjoy. The garden is a wonderful space and the neighbourhood is quiet. The addition of an external warm water shower was very useful for sandy feet and for rinsing damp dogs! We enjoyed our stay very much and would be delighted to stay again in the future
