Lovely lodge with superb views. Nice walks around the woods behind the lodge but difficult to walk to a pub. Nice secure decking area for dogs but be prepared for the sheep. You’re on a working farm so lovely to see the sheep grazing. Would definitely recommend for a quiet leisurely stay and will return.

Absolutely amazing from start to finish. Style at the bottom of car park, is a doorway to a walkers paradise. Sofa covered with throws, makes life easy with your four legged friends, along with secure balcony. Hot tub clean and well maintained, with hi spec features, just what’s needed after a long walk. Annabelle, Richard and Tom are the perfect hosts. On sight if needed but otherwise unintrusive.
