    “Thank you so much for a excellent stay.”

    We found the Lodge so clean and comfortable, comfy bed. And lovely and warm. A real home from home. The hot tub was amazing even with the awful weather, the views amazing and the quietness was just what was needed. We really enjoyed our stay, and will definitely be back. A really lovely clean comfortable lodge very warm, and cosy. Absolutely brilliant. Thank you so much.
