We found The Lodge very comfortable and well-equipped, and everything of a high quality. The owners had thought of virtually everything that we could need. The Welcome Pack was great, and the bed comfortable (we particularly appreciated the lightweight duvet). The shower was also great but we would have liked a grab handle as it was over the bath. We appreciated the peaceful surroundings. Daisy enjoyed the dog treats; thank you for the food bowls & blankets/towels, although we did bring our own.

We had a lovely weekend staying here. The cottage is really well located for visiting local villages/towns and going on countryside walks. It was a super cosy cottage and we had such a relaxing stay.
