What our customers say
We enjoyed our stay, the perfect way to relax after a busy Christmas and New Year. We would love to return in late summer
The instructions were clear to find the lodge and supplied with all amenities I would usually pack myself but was taken care of already. Lodge was so spacious and homely with private hot tub at the rear. Short walking distance to the pub/park and lake. Really enjoyed our stay just what we needed thank you
Our stay at the lodge was absolutely beautiful! The lodge was cozy, clean, and incredibly comfortable, providing the perfect home-away-from-home🫶🏼 We highly recommend this lodge for anyone looking for a peaceful and scenic getaway. Hot tub 10/10 was beautiful watching the wildlife from it 👏 we had a day out at the zoo which was 5 minutes away from the site the little one loved it.
