Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Mark W. 28 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy Disliked: Location #### Wet & windy stay Unfortunately the weather was pretty terrible. The area does not have a lot to do in bad weather, particularly if you have a dog with you. The lodge was nice but is quite far from anything of interest. If you had good weather and just wanted to explore the local countryside and nearby coast it would probably be great. We got full check-in info while already on holiday the previous week. It mentioned we needed to bring our own “pot towel” and towels. We had towels but not a tea towel, so we bought one before arriving. There were actually 3 in the property. ##### Mark W. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Sameer A. 22 Nov 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Check-in, communication #### Average The good impression about the location, cleanliness etc had to be weighed against the terrible experience of having to spend 2/6 nights without being able to contact the property manager through phone or email, unable to lock the front door, unable to get proper room heating or have hot water. Overall it was a below average experience. ##### Sameer A. Stayed 6 nights in Nov 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### bobby c. 27 Jun 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location Disliked: Listing accuracy #### Beautiful area, lodge is as picture but still needs work! Hmm, where to start with this review. There are two important bits of information that should have described in bold and on the important information category. This information was in the 83 amenities list and under notes. One ,we need to provide anywhere from 1 or more for heating. We found out about this after making the second payment and the PDF we received days prior to our arrival. Later i saw its in the notes under the 83 amenities category, it was buried in the listing. There is a section with important information that doesn't say a thing about this. Second, we had to bring our own towels, not provided at all. Again, under the notes part of the 83 amenities section. Not in the important information section at the front of the listing. I understand pets are allowed but there was dog hair all over the place, its as no ine Hoovered at all. The beds were hard as a rock,like sleeping on the floor. The wifi could of been better, it was hard to stream anything at the end of our day. Most places to visit closed at 5pm so we were back having dinner and unwinding. But with kids it was rough with WiFi being spotty. Oh the hot water needs to be fixed. We found out the first night and second night that four people can't take showers in one single night. I ended up taking a Navy Shower both nights. It was mighty cold, so we staggered the showers two at night and two in the morning, which cut in to our time to get out and see the sights. As I said needs some work for 5 stars. ##### bobby c.
