1 bedroom lodge (pet friendly, hot tub, woodland)
Liked: The whole site was family friendly with lots of activities to suit all even when it rained. It was well kept leaving wild areas for nesting rare breeds. We watched squirrels while happily going about their day. Off grid was a welcomed addition, finding alternatives to tablets and other electronic devices. The cafe served delicious food and the staff were welcoming and helpful We found the hot tub easy to use and enjoyed the sauna. Staying at the Lodge (treehouse) was an amazing experience which will stay in our memories.
Disliked: Although it is a dog friendly site there was a number of dogs off lead or on long leads.

1 bedroom lodge (pet friendly, hot tub, woodland)
Liked: I’ve been traveling a lot since I was a kid and this was one of the best places I’ve been to. When I think of a lodge in the woods this place is exactly what comes in mind. It’s everything I’ve ever dreamed of. The place was extremely clean and tidy. I liked the welcoming gifts on our arrival, such a nice treat. The fairy lights around the beds gave a nice touch to the coziness of the place. I liked the fact that we had to light the fire on our own as it makes the experience much more realistic. The lodge we stayed at was facing the sunrise which was extremely beautiful to wake up to. The hot tub was perfect for the cold weather we arrived at. One thing I was worried about was the bathroom, but it was totally the opposite of what I expected, it’s modernly decorated in a quirky way, although 7 girls shared the bathroom it still smelled good at the end of the stay because of all the good smelling lavender in the bathroom. It’s a great getaway place to spend with family and friends, don’t forget to grab some board games to make the night even more memorable!
