If I could give a 10 out of 10 review I would. The accommodation was absolutely amazing. The lodge was decorated to a very high standard, the beds were so comfortable, the log burner was great for cold evenings, the view was amazing, the location was ideal, the falicties were good. I could not fault the accommodation whatsoever. I would definitely highly recommend the accommodation and would definitely return again.
