The lodge is quiet in a nice location and generally well equipped. It was scrupulously clean on arrival and there was no problem gaining access. As for the equipment provided, the only addition would be a tray - how can anyone manage without one? And the only criticism would a rather mean allocation of loot roll - two small rolls for a week is a bit mean!

Willow Cottage had everything you could possibly require for a romantic break. The accommodation was stunning and so clean. We also loved where it was situated in the West Sussex countryside. There were plenty of places nearby to go to for a drink or a meal. Although the fully fitted kitchen allowed us to relax and self cater.

Arguably the best lodge in the best location we have ever stayed in. Simply can't say any more. Thank you, see you again.
