The lodge is well equipped to a high standard. The site is peaceful and secluded. The only downside is you cannot see the lovely view except from the terrace. Owners are very helpful if needed.

A really lovely stay. The lodge was very clean and fully stocked with items. The views from the decking were amazing. The hosts had left a folder with lots of useful local information. The enclosed decking was perfect for our dog as we knew he would be safe outside. Overall an excellent stay and would 100% go back and stay again. Lots of walks and a very good pub close by (recommended by the Hosts) Thank you.

Loved the location, & the Lodge. So peaceful & only a a few miles to lots of places of interest. Great near by walks if you fancy a no driving day. The Lodge was great, so clean attention to detail deserves top marks. The veiw was wonderful from the outside seated area. I will be returning for sure.
