An amazing way to start our summer holidays. The lodge is very spacious and has everything you would need for a week away from home. The children loved picking out there rooms and playing outside, watching the sun set from the decking and taking a dip in the hot tub after long days out. The owners really have thought about everything and you can tell just how much work an love they have put into this lodge. The cake was also very tasty so thank you for that.

Creatively positioned, and designed internally also, The Lodge supplies everything to ensure a most enchanting and yet practical stay for a week. Versatile, adaptable and deliciously welcoming every day. Gloriously relaxing experience.

There are TVs in every bedroom and a fast and reliable internet connection. The privacy was exceptional. Nestled in a serene and secluded area we enjoyed peaceful times on the veranda, listening to the birds and looking at the sheep and visiting pheasants. The hot tub was a particular highlight â nothing beats soaking under the stars or avoiding the rain. Barbara and Richard are great hosts who respected our privacy but who were available if we needed them. Fantastic to meet Barbara to welcome us. It was clear that a lot of care goes into making guests feel welcome and ensuring they have a memorable stay.
