    The owners were very friendly and the information left in the lodge was absolutely first class. Very handy that the pub was just 100 yards down the road with really good food and pleasant staff. Also the lodge was in an ideal place for touring around the local area but if you just need to chill out the lodge was in a very quiet area being able to look out at the field in front and able to see the deer. We hope that we will be able to come back in the future.
