We will certainly be looking to return in the future. The only one suggestion we had is it would be nice to have a couple of coat hooks but thatâs just being picky. Absolutely 5 stars and would recommend to anyone!

The hot tub ,although under cover, was also open to the elements. The estate was very remote down some single track roads and their was little walking directly from the estate unless you walked down the road. The one signposted walk was inaccessible due to a barbed wire fence.

The lodge was clean cosy and well equiped. Set on farm in very peacefull scenery. We both enjoyed jumping in hot tube every evening and even strong winds didnt stop us as it sits under roof, perfect! Lovely views of the hils and great place for morning coffee i loved it. Recommend to all for romantic, relaxing break!
