  • Paula

    Furniture is good and comfortable It was absolutely spotless. If I was to be really picky it Looked a little tired in places eg wallpaper over patio doors but that’s all

  • Julia

    Everything we needed, plenty of room

  • Confirmed Guest

    Very tired lodge and the balcony and veranda were very dirty and green in colour. The lodge was nothing like the pictures we reviewed when booking. The hot tub jets did not work properly and we had to have the services out to re pressurize the boiler as we had no hot water or heating. However, the staff were incredible, very helpful and fixed the problems straight away. you cannot fault the team.
