The hot tub was just as advertised-hot and relaxing. Loved the privacy and the nice touch of chemicals on day two. Pretty spot on overall!

Hot Tub, was as it says, Hot... this also had chemicals added on day 2. The sauce around the Hot tub was good and private

Emma
Date of stay: 11th November 2024

Honestly, we expected more from the log cabin based on the pictures online. The door lock was a bit of a pain to use and inside, it was pretty dirty - dog hairs on the sofa and dead flies by the windows. Wifi was barely usable, which was frustrating and it took almost a day for the hot tub to heat up. For nearly £400 for two nights, it didnt feel like good value at all. Sorry for the late feedback, just saw the review email now.

Emma Carter
Date of stay: 2nd November 2024

We really enjoyed our stay! The lodge was beautifully decorated and had all we needed. It was fairly clean, apart from a bit of limescale in the shower and a dusty mirror. Still, lovely overall.
