Family of 6 and 2 dogs enjoyed a fabulous 4 nights stay. It was very clean and comfortable could not have asked for any more from the lodge. Great location for days out. Excellent holiday park with lots of woods and countryside to explore. The pub on site was good and food there was very passable for the prices.

There is everything you need and more! The cleaners should be praised as it was spotless. The beds were comfortable and we chose this lodge as there is a bath which we enjoy after a day's walking. It is situated in a quiet cul-de-sac on the park with amazing views. The lodge is well maintained with lovely furnishings. We would highly recommend Hideaway Lodge.
