Peaceful. Cabin was larger than expected. Spoilt for choice in where to sit throughout the day, a balcony with a large table and chairs. Also had a small table with 2 chairs. Downstairs you had a porch with multiple seating around a coffee table. Near the front door 2 wooden chairs. This had the perfect sun spot for most on the day. 2 livingrooms with settees and chairs, plus a dining table accommodating 8 chairs.Every appliance we needed was at hand and well equipped with cooking utensils, first aid kit, games, books, tvs, storage in bedrooms and more. The cabin inside was clean and spacious and felt homely.We were just a family of 4 adults, but this could accommodate 3 couples or a large family and even had a child's small bed if required. 5 toilets so no queueing in distress. The owners emailed to ask how I wanted the 3rd room made up a week before going. Communication was good between us and owners aswell.The hot tub was checked every morning by maintenance. It was easy to use and covered well. On arrival we had dinner in the bar which was great. The bar was clean and people were polite. BARN 1 served delicious food with a wide range of meals to choose from. The grounds were kept clean and tidy, but i did notice alot of sleepers that needed replacing around the cabin and grounds. Wheelie bins kept away from the cabins, which was a great idea.This is a great place for golfers, and it also has lakes for fishing. Not sure if its private fishing or for everyone. Horse sanctuary close by with cafe also.

We had a lovely time in the lodge before going back to school starts, was just what was needed to refresh our brains. we had 2 very small issues which were dealt with in a timely manner and as professionally as possible, we didnt want to leave and are already looking at re-booking in future, the rooms are spacious and all have ensuites connected which was a bonus, the hot tub on the lower decking is secluded to a point so privacy was nice.watching the ducks at dawn and dusk going between the ponds was a perfect start and end to the day, perfect for friends as has and up and down decking as well as 2 sitting rooms so you dont always have to be together.
