Guests say
Guests have praised the lodge for its cleanliness, modern amenities, and the addition of a hot tub, which adds a touch of luxury to a peaceful stay. The lodge's location is appreciated for its tranquillity and proximity to local attractions. While most found the lodge comfortable and well-equipped, a few noted issues with a mattress and heating control. The thoughtful gesture of a complimentary prosecco was well-received.
The lodge consistently receives high marks for cleanliness, with multiple reviews mentioning its immaculate condition, which is particularly reassuring for guests with young children.
The location is described as peaceful and quiet, with easy access to local amenities and nature reserves, making it ideal for a relaxing break.
Comfort is generally rated highly, with the lodge being described as cozy and modern. However, one guest mentioned an uncomfortable mattress, which slightly lowers the score.
Facilities are well-regarded, especially the hot tub. However, there were minor issues with WiFi connectivity and heating control, as well as a mention of flimsy toilet seats, which suggests room for improvement in maintenance.
While the gesture of a complimentary prosecco is mentioned and appreciated, there is not enough information to assess the consistency of such thoughtful gestures across all stays, so this score is set to null.

Further into the week I started to find long black hairs on the bedding and floor (I have blonde hair). The hot tub did not have any cleaning during our stay i am not sure if this is the norm as other places I have stayed with a hot tub it gets chemicals added and cleaned daily. Other than that everything else was very clean tidy and it was a lovely quiet place to stay. We have a teenager toddler and a 7 week old baby so was worrying about leaving the lodge on time we didnât feel rushed to do so by the cleaning staff as they started at the other end. All in all I would recommend

The WiFi did struggle at times when trying to watch the TV. We had a great stay and would definitely come back.

If we had done any washing we didn't find a horse to put wet clothes on so saved dirty washing to take home. Overall enjoyed stay.
