We initially drove past the lodge because we thought it was far too nice and couldn't be the place we booked :DThe location is lovely. I'm the kind of person that needs to keep going and keep busy but I found myself sat on the balcony listening to audio books, or just staring into the distance.I would 100% recommend and I will be rebooking for next year and taking more people.
