A lovely well equipped lodge , fabulous hot tub which was cleaned daily. Very spacious for a a group or family. The grounds were gorgeous where we saw deer walking along road & red squirrels up the trees. My only concern was the shower was very slippery and could do with a mat or non slip flooring.

Lovely lodge on quiet park. Could do with more glasses but just a minor issue. Had a great week with lots to do in the area. Grandkids loved the hot tub.
