In the words of my autistic son "the best holiday ever,"The peace the lodge gave us was wonderful. With only sheep for neighbors was brilliant. We all relaxed and the hot tub was the icing on the cake

We had a fantastic stay for a long weekend! If anything, the listing undersells the place - all esential towels/cleaning supplies/kitchen supplies were provided, and there was a large smart TV in the living room which wasn't listed online. For the per night cost this is a really great value place with loads of space to spread out and relax even with four of us staying. Highly recommend eating at the pub onsite - the Sunday roast was delicious with very generous portions, though you'd hope so for the price. The only thing which could be improved would be an actual covering/roof over the hot tub to allow it to be comfortably used when it's raining.
