"Lovely lodge and surroundings, very clean and well equipped. There is a pub a mile away which was great, very friendly, but not much else to walk to.Hot tub was good, clean hot and ready to use.The only negative is you have to leave £100 deposit, this we were unaware of until arrival. Waiting for it to be returned, could take a week."
