The beds are so comfy we all had the best sleep. The hot tub is amazing specially when you've been out all day it's something to look forward to, to chill in after a long day. We will definitely come back and stay again

In particular, the beds are comfortable and the showers are powerful. Hot tub is fabulous and was checked regularly by Clint so was always in a very good condition. We found the Wifi to be very fast, which was helpful. We felt Lily Lodge was a warm and restful place to be during the couple of rainy days that we had during stay. The facilities are great although some of the kitchen ware is a little basic, but we brought some cooking essentials with us like salt and we mainly bought some ready meals to put into the oven, so, it was fine for us. We definitely made the right choice in booking this Lodge for a rest and peace and quiet in the countryside. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the Lodge.

Comfortable, spacious and quiet location despite it being a holiday park. Bit of a drive to beaches but the hot tub was a welcome reward for the driving.
