Excellent accommodation in a rural setting, which was exactly what was required.The grounds around the lodge were excellently maintained which provided pleasant walks taking in the country views.Everything required to prepare your own meals was available in the kitchen area, with a large dining table as well as outdoor dining being available.Heather was available if we required assistance, but was very respectful of our privacy.I would certainly recommend a stay at The Goyle.
