"We absolutely loved our girls weekend away here."
The booking process was clear and simple. Owner was easy to contact if needed. The lodge itself was beautiful (we actually stayed in Lodge 2), very clean with everything we needed. Yes, the lounge area was a little small for 4 adults however, we spent most of our time in the hot tub anyway! Surroundings were just lovely, watching the lambs leap about so close while relaxing outdoors was just what we wanted. If I was to make any suggestion, it would have been great to have some additional seating on the decking, stools were okay but would have loved a soft seat to relax with a cuppa. Will definitely be recommending to others! Thanks for a great stay.

"This is a lovely little cottage that was beautifully decorated and had most of the essentials we needed."
The hot tub was a real highlight, offering a relaxing experience with stunning views.
However, there were a few downsides that affected our experience. Unfortunately, we couldn’t use the dishwasher as it hadn’t been cleaned and had an unpleasant smell, meaning we had to wash everything by hand. There was only a drop of washing-up liquid provided, so we had to purchase more along with bin bags and cleaning supplies, even though the website stated they would be included.
Additionally, the pans weren’t clean when we arrived, so we had to wash them before use. Towards the end of our stay, we noticed a strong sewage smell coming from the main bathroom, which was quite unpleasant.
Overall, the cottage has a lot of potential with its charm and lovely setting, but a bit more attention to cleanliness and stocking the basics would greatly improve the experience.

"We had a lovely few nights."
.. on arrival its was very modern, clean, with all the essentials already in the cabin. (Cleaning products tea, coffee & suger) along with a little welcome baskest. The only things for us, we would have benefited from some storage for our clothes and a radio for the deking while in the tub.. but very minor .. we still had the best time and would definitely go back.

"Highly recommended."
Beautiful, clean, well maintained property with stunning views. We booked this weekend break for my 50th birthday celebrations, we all thoroughly enjoyed it and had a lovely, relaxing time soaking in the hot tub whilst taking in the gorgeous snowy views. It was like a winter Wonderland! The owner was friendly, helpful and really did go the extra mile coming to pull our car out of the snow twice. We will definitely be returning soon.

"Arrived a little later for checkin as unfortunately SatNav took us on a detor!"
Once we had arrived, we were met by the cutest Lodge, Besti! Every room we went in we coo'd and ahhh'd over because each room was cute and perfect for it's use.
The added touch of Christmas decorations was amazing, I did remember reading about possible decorations but a tree with lights, festive cushions, wreath and a centre piece was above our expectation.
With us being a family of 4 we had 2 bedrooms with 1 ensuite and a 'family bathroom' both very similar in size. Again, small but perfectly formed, very modern and clean too!
The living room had the tree and a corner sofa with a TV - perfect for Christmas movies!
Both bedrooms were with double beds (unfortunately, my two aren't fans of sharing beds so they took it in turns to sleep on a sofa and one in the bed - they did talk about wishing it was bunk beds instead). The rooms had a small pole with coathangers for a wordrobe, again, cleverly designed due to the size of the lodge, with 2x bedside cabinets.
The kitchen area was the centre of the lodge with a fully fitted kitchen, integrated appliances, a lovely oak dining table & a sofa! We managed to make a full Christmas dinner and had no issues, oven & hob really easy to use - dishwasher not marvellous (although we don't own a dishwasher so wasn't too sure if we had used it properly - potentially needs a deep clean as some of the glasses & plates still had water marks on them) it did not effect our stay so no big deal!
Onto the hot tub....WOW! Perfect on an evening, with an outdoor fridge & table area. It was so lovely to sit & relax with a glass (plastic glasses due to the request of the owners guide) of prosecco watching the sheep and the hills.
We were lucky in the fact there wasn't many guests on site so it really felt like we were alone and had the whole garden space (which was fenced off from the sheep but plenty of room to feel like open space) to ourselves.
We did have an issue with the hot tub as it became abit smelly a few days in, so we attempted to empty the water and contact the guest services who were helpful and talk my husband through the process.
Around the lodge, we saw sooo many sheep & pheasants. It was so picturesque, we all enjoyed the scenery & nature.
Apart from the lodge, we were able to drive short distances to various National Parks for dog walks and searching for waterfalls.
We visited ZipWorld which was a lovely afternoon out.
We got home, unpacked and are looking at dates again for next year - definitely recommend. Thankyou for such a special Christmas.

"Me and my partner came for a long weekend away and the only way to describe it is "absolutely perfect"."
The Lodge is perfectly situated for full privacy, the views are amazing, the kitchen is fully equipped, the hottub is amazing and the whole place was spotlessly clean.
100% I will be coming back to this lodge, they couldn't make it any better if they tried.
Thank you for a perfect weekend away

"We stayed a week here and could easily have stayed another."
The lodges were pristine and the tranquil location made this a great family holiday. Peacefully remote but well placed for surrounding attractions. We will be back!

"The property was beautiful and well maintained."
The views are incredible and it didnt go unnoticed that every aspect of the design and layout of the lodge was around getting the best of the views.
The welcome basket of snacks was a lovely gesture and every detail was thought of from toilet roll and hand soup in every bathroom to dishwasher tablets, surface spray and and a selection of cloths in the kitchen. The fresh milk ready in the fridge along with supplied tea, coffee and sugar just added to the luxurious feel.
The hot tub and outside breakfast bar and fridge are impressive. It was great to get there and the hot tub up to temperature and ready to go. We loved spending the time on there watching the sunsets and sunrise, the views and the sheep.
The kitchen was fitted and provided with everything needed and the while lodge provided comfort and luxury
Nit picking and personal preference even though there is the breakfast bar type set up outside as it is under the cover of the lodge porch it would be amazing to have a picnic table or something on the grass area close to the bbq so when its sunny you can sit in the sun as the sun doesn't really get onto the covered area. But that is personal preference as we like to sit in the sunshine (whens its actually out )
We absolutely loved our stay and have already spread the word and shared the link to the property to friends and family as well as decided a date when to book again for ourselves.
