A stunning luxury lodge, perfect for a couples retreat or family break.

8/10 Good

"As per main comments, some of the soft furnishings, particularly the sofas are past their best and require renewal. Both bathroomâ€™s flooring could do with replacement and some remedial work to address blackened silicone sealant etc. is required. The lodge is still nice but starting to look slightly tired in places. Not a big task to get it to an excellent standard once again."

8/10 Good

"All staff excellent- parking and pet friendly. Thai kitchen located in the restaurant area of pub excellent. "
