Very relaxing. Very 'dog and people friendly'. Excellent hosts. Everything we needed was available. Easy access to a good butchers, fish and chip shop, local stores and Dalston.

Just spent a week here and instantly felt our steess melt away. The lodge was immaculately clean and the huge garden was amazing for our dog Bella. Waking up to the sound of the birds and sheep was wonderful. The hosts Bill and Maggie can't do enough for you and the welcome basket was a treat, delicious home made scones. You are 10 minute's away from local supermarkets and it is a great base to explore out and about. Overall it's the perfect peaceful escape and we cannot wait to go back in August.
