Fantastic stay in Moorhen Lodge. The location was fabulous - quiet, secluded and picturesque. The hot tub was excellent. The lodge itself was clean and comfortable, although it does need refreshing as it’s looking tired. Some of the kitchen trays and pans need replacing too. However we would definitely revisit.

Had a fab stay - very quiet and well situated, lots to do and see nearby. Didn't want for anything - towels provided, fully equipped kitchen, and the hot tub was amazing and made for a very relaxing break. Thank you!
