The lodge was so welcoming and the additional touches, such as the towels and the water bowl for our dog were very much appreciated. The views were stunning and the surroundings were so peaceful, except for the occasional sounds of the sheep or cows. My husband and I saw the lambs wandering about so asked the hosts if we could meet them and, not only did we meet those lambs, but the hosts took us to see the newborn lambs with their mothers. We had a truly magical stay and didnât want to leave. We canât wait to visit again soon!
