    “What a beautiful lodge and in the most amazing location, just a short stroll down to the waters edge, and a gorgeous view from the decking.”

    We absolutely loved staying at Serendipity and would happily return - a week didn't feel long enough! There was plenty of space within the lodge for the 5 of us and it has been furnished to a very high standard. All in all, a wonderful holiday. Only minor issue were the stairs leading up to the lodge, which have definitely seen better days and are in immediate need of repair, but this did not impact our stay.
