We had a lovely holiday the location was amazing and the lodge was great and had everything you needed for the week. There were two things I would say that need attention. Firstly the lodge was covered in dog hair literally everywhere and with my partner being allergic to dogs not great. Secondly the high chair provided for babies was absolutely covered in mould and we could obviously not use it. We bought our own one from home anyway so not a problem. We would definitely come back again as we had a lovely time.

The welcome pack I paid for in advance was not waiting for us when we arrived, after a telephone call it came two days later. The lodge was nice but basic. It is a lovely wooded site with reasonable facilities. The pub / restaurant is ok but expensive for the type of meals provided. A very nice area to explore, however I do not think I will return.
