    An amazing place to stay. Beautiful surroundings, a gorgeous fully equipped lodge, with everything we needed. The hot tub was amazing, and sitting outside was so peaceful and relaxing. So many things to do and places to visit, we needed more time. Whoever made the lemon drizzle cake needs to get themselves on Bake Off, as that was delicious. Would definitely recommend.

    The service wasn’t great as a business woman I’m dreadful at looking at my phone to make sure all is ok even on holiday. Probably a good thing I couldn’t check. It also meant to could check up on family too!

    There was lots of nature around. The hot tub was lovely. Loved taking my camera for a little walk with all the lovely birds and animals.

    Frying pan (although states on bottom suitable for all hobs) wasn't suitable for hob, would be good to have a broom and dustpan and brush as well as a hoover for the floors, not enough coat hangers

    Hot tub, large space indoors and outdoors, attention to nature outside, fishing lakes, locality, Large bath sheet plus extra towel each for hot tub,

    Signal wasn't great but we didn't expect any different being in a secluded area . Location was beautiful

    The lodge was fabulous, so clean and comfortable and the facilities are such good value for money . We will definitely be back . The home made bread and cake as a free extra was a lovely touch and delicious. The hot tubs being checked daily was also very good and efficient. The owners were more then hospitable.

    Nothing . It was perfect for us.

    The location is excellent. Central for most of the local attractions , although with the weather we had and the peacefulness around the site we would have been just as happy to stay lazing around the lakes and using the hot tub.
