We loved our little stay in Apple 😃 sweet little site with everything we needed, cabin was lovely and clean and very cute. Hot tub was amazing too. We used the games room (big cues need some new tips they’re missing) and had fun. Never used the swimming pool but heard lots of happy children in it ! The owners were lovely was nice to meet them, they had a difficult week with awkward guests but continued to be very accomodating to us. If we didn’t live so far away we would definitely go back. 🥰

Thank fully only 2 nights and stayed out most of the time .It was so very disappointing indeed. Awful in fact. Happy to supply photos if you want us too.Mats still covered in dog hairs, floors filthy. Shower dirty and mouldy. Outside on balcony covered in mould too. Everything very run down.Hard thin towels. No chairs to sit at the little dining room table. Had to use the 2 outdoor seats to eat at.Could not recommend at all and should get a money refund for sure/

First time staying at Apple Lodge and was pleasantly surprised as for a studio it was spacious. Very small kitchen but has everything you need for a break away. Pool, games room and cinema room also a great touch. Stayed for the Easter break and very easy to travel from with some lovely scenery and local pubs a short drive away. It was very very quiet even when people were around the complex and in the pool, very tranquil.Louise and Barry very welcoming and lovely to see the horses too.
