Host had left a welcome pack, including a dog bag with a ball, this was a lovely touch. The only recommendation I would make is that the holiday park is huge and not well sign posted when you enter. It was extremely hard to find the cottage on the site and I had to ask in the on site pub for directions (which they werenât even sure about). I appreciate this isnât the hostâs responsibility but the park itself could do with directional signage to the correct roads within. Thankfully I arrived in the day but it would have been virtually impossible to find in the dark. That said, we had a fabulous stay. The location is in a prime spot for exploring. I would imagine the site is very busy in the summer but I would definitely visit again at quieter times as thatâs just my personal preference.

Outside hot tub / table area very spacious, great my large dog too! Hot tub was fantastic, also a large size. Lots to see and do in the area, breathtaking beaches were my favourite. Only things I would say is the fridge needs replacing, as it kept freezing our food, if you turn the temp down, the ice cubes melted! Also, the bed mattresses are not great. With the lodge being a pet friendly accommodation, a hoover would have been appreciated too.

Also I couldn't work out how to use the cooker. No information in the folder. I eventually Found instructions in a cupboard beside the iron! However, it was a lovely Lodge and I particularly loved the fact that it was in a beautiful position with lovely walks round the pond. I took many photos of swans, ducks, moorhens and the heron.
