A lovely clean, comfortable and cosy place to stay in such a quiet and peaceful setting. The lodge was very well equipped with everything we needed for our stay. There are lots of places to visit nearby and we found the local people to be very friendly. The owners were particularly helpful and went the extra mile in making sure our stay at their lodge was a good one. We would love a return visit when we are able.
