Great last minute stay at fox lodge, was actually upset I couldn’t stay for longer. Hosts were welcoming and nothing was too much. The views of the countryside were stunning even had a bit of sheep entertainment as they were being herded up into another field.The only problem I had with my stay was other guests parking which blocked the road to the lodge but this was fairly easy rectified. Just a small bit of feedback which might be helpful going forward.

The booking was simple and we were kept well informed from the outset. Fox lodge itself is warm, clean and comfortable, which was equally matched by the warm welcome from Caroline and Philip. Set in secluded grounds, you are ensured privacy throughout and you are in an excellent position for walks or visits to other areas. We cannot speak highly enough of our experience at Fox Lodge. Thank you all.
