Guests generally find the lodge comfortable, with a good-sized accommodation and comfortable beds. However, preferences for mattress firmness varied, and some guests mentioned issues with the toilet seat and showers, slightly affecting the comfort score.

And being self employed you are never on holiday. But we had an enjoyable time.

The real bugbear that we had is that the wi-fi is awful. It is so bad that you canât really use the smart tv. The signal will not cope with it.
