The lodge is set in a lovely peaceful location and not overlooked. It was very clean but the numerous bossy notes from the owners were very off putting. Also the wifi was dreadful because it was shared with the other lodges and came up on my phone as “unsecured” and was unable to stream anything. The living area was adequate for 2 adults but would have been cramped for 6. The kitchen area had very little preparation space and was not a good design. Despite all this it was a clean cosy and comfortable lodge
