Very comfortable and of a high standard. The bed in the main bedroom was very comfortable and the lodge had everything we could need or want. I would definitely recommend and would love to stay here again. Thank you to the owners for providing the lodge for our stay. We had a lovely family break thanks to them.

Had to hide the air fresheners, too much for us but this is just personal preference. A comfortable stay with great views, we would stay again.
