    “Lovely, quiet secluded lodge.”

    All home comforts provided. Decking very slippery, my granddaughter slipped and fell twice, hurting herself. Even the dogs slipped thus not usable which was a shame. Small leak in the lounge roof, had to catch the rainwater. Staff on site can be rude and unhelpful. Otherwise had a fabulous time.

    Thanks for your kind comments about your stay in our lodge. Sorry about the slippy decking. We are up now and it is being pressure washed. We do regular pressure washes, please accept our apologies and hopefully see you return to stay again. Property Owner
