What an inviting beautiful little lodge fully equipped with everything that is needed.The patio/decking is as peaceful as the photos show so it is a pleasure to sit and soak it all in! There is plenty of room for car parking and it is a 10-15 min walk to Horning centre.

What an absolutely wonderful place to stay. Everything was beautifully clean and so nicely decorated. The bed was so comfortable and there was lots of storage space.
