Mark
Very clean on arrival. Plenty of towels provided. Kitchen was well equipped, lots of cutlery and utensils, no salt and pepper so bring your own. Welcome pack with Tea towel, washing up liquid, sponge, dishwasher tablets, hotel style tea and coffee sachets. Weather not the best on our visit but the heating quickly warmed the lodge.
