Nuthatch 2 bedroom lodge (hot tub)
Liked: Beautiful setting and loved where all the lodges where situated. Lovely and clean inside (great bedding) loved the hot tub Great time in the teepee and quiz
Disliked: Just a couple of things that knocked a point off Dog poo on the floor at the back of the lodge and a few empty beer cans and litter (we were on lodge 14) The decking and top of the hot top could do with a good jet wash
