    “We had a lovely time, the lodge exceeded our expectations in every way- the size, well thought out room configuration, cleanliness, outdoor space, availability of utensils and crockery etc.”

    The information received from the owner was really helpful beforehand so we knew what to expect rather than having to read up when we arrived meaning we could just enjoy our time there. We would love to go back.
