Very well equipped, clean and comfortable. Plenty of hot water. Visited in March for a long weekend, so not able to sit on the decking which would have been a bonus in the sunshine.

A perfect lodge for 4 people. Spacious and was great that both bathrooms had a shower, as well as a large bath in one of them. It was a shame the weather was bad, as it would have been nice to have sat on the large decking area.

As above. Our only concern is that there is no personnel around after hours. We are elderly people and relatively active and fairly well but worry that if we have an urgent issue out of hours the contact available may not be satisfactory and would prefer a human contact when there is an emergency.
