Guests have praised the cleanliness, the warm welcome from Father Philip, and the thoughtful touches such as fresh flowers and cake. While some have noted noise from a nearby pub, the overall experience is highly regarded, with many eager to return.
Guests consistently describe the property as spotlessly clean, with attention to detail that contributes to a comfortable and welcoming environment.

The lodge is frequently described as cosy, comfortable, and well-equipped, with a particularly comfortable bed and warm atmosphere. The steep stairs are noted, but they add to the property's historic character.
Facilities are generally praised for being modern and well-maintained, though there are occasional mentions of issues with internet connectivity and kitchen appliances, which prevent a perfect score.
Many reviews express gratitude for the thoughtful gestures such as fresh flowers, cake, and a warm personal welcome. While these gifts are highly appreciated, they are a courtesy and may vary with each stay.
