The property was lovely but the blinds needed dusting, there were dirty towels in the washing machine and the laminate on the tables was taped up. ##### Louise N. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### joanne s. 14 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Lovely lodge unfortunately the oven was not working so needed to call out for help on our first evening but the man was very helpful and lined us a counter top cooker. No WiFi which I didn't realise when I booked which was a pain and the TV signal was glitchy. ##### joanne s.
