Guests that stayed at this property said
Guests consistently note the spotlessness of the lodge upon arrival, indicating a high standard of cleanliness throughout the property.
The lodge is commended for its peaceful and beautiful location, with scenic views and walks right from the doorstep. However, one mention of difficulty with an uphill walk and dog mess around the lake slightly impacts the score.
Reviews frequently mention the comfortable beds and the spaciousness of the lodge, contributing to a relaxing and luxurious stay. One comment about a bed not being very comfy slightly lowers the score.
The lodge's facilities, including the hot tub and welcome hamper, are highly appreciated. However, a few minor issues such as flies and lack of recycling facilities are noted.
The welcome hamper and other thoughtful touches are well-received by guests, enhancing their experience. It should be noted that such gifts, while appreciated, may vary and are not guaranteed for every stay.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Campion Lodge. The Lodge is very spacious with everything you need. The welcome hamper was fantastic with bread, milk, eggs, wine, selection of cereals, biscuits and chocolates. The hot tub is very private, tucked away at the corner of the decking and dressing gowns and slippers are provided which was a nice touch. Location was good with walks from the doorstep. I would highly recommend for a relaxing break.

this place was amazing, peaceful, relaxing and luxurious. fabulous lodge, clean and so spacious, will all you could want for a nice relaxing break. Our 3 dogs were made to feel welcome, unlike other places supposedly dog friendly. The grounds were perfect for long walks then a nice hot tub to finish off the day.

The lodges are well thought out and beautifully furnished and maintained. The surroundings are lovely, our dog loved his walks around the site. When we arrived we were greeted by a wonderful array of goodies and the lights and heating were on making it very inviting and cozy. The staff we met were very friendly and helpful. Absolutely no complaints.
