Have been to lodges 4 times now. Weather was extremely hot so could have done with extra fans or, even better, an air conditioning unit. We left a day early because the lodge was unbearable. The shower is very slippery so could do with an extra long shower mat. We had to use a towel in the shower tray. Lodges are lovely and the cleanliness is second to none.
