It made an excellent base for us to explore the area, we didnât use the facilities at White Cross Bay and so canât comment on that. The only negatives with the lodge for us were; 1. The bed wasnât that comfortable (in our opinion). It was very hard and felt like sleeping on a floor! I know others have mentioned how comfy the beds were and so I think this is just down to personal preference. 2. There was a bit of a funny smell in the living/kitchen area. We thought it may have been from cooking from the previous guests the night before but it remained the entire time during our stay. Other than the above, the lodge was lovely, clean and modern, super quiet and we very much enjoyed our stay. Thank you
