Lovely secluded cabin with a gorgeous hot tub. The cabin had everything we needed, on arrival was scones jam and clotted cream and a bottle of prosecco. Also some oaty dog biscuits for our dog. We had a lovely time and highly recommend.

Actually the nicest place we have stayed at. Beautiful, cosy and comfortable. On arrival we had been left a bottle of prosecco and some home made scones. Also some milk for a brew.My only complaint, no hoover or sweeping brush. I have a German shepherd and always conscious of leaving hair behind.

A lovely stay in the lodge cottage. Hot tub was wonderful after our days out exploring. Everything we needed was there, with nice little welcome touches. Cute decor throughout, was very cozy. Perfect for couples little romantic break away. Garden was small but private and perfect too. There's also a shared larger garden if you want to use it. Plenty of amenities. Owner was very pleasant and helpful. Will definitely stay again if we go back to the area, which im sure we will!
