    Really good value for money out of season. Cosy lodge with everything you need. Lovely and quiet with no passing traffic or road noise. Great that it is several miles from the nearest town. Lodge had modern facilities and not dated at all. Maybe we had a refurbished one. Great walks from the door and really quiet in December even on the coast path.

    The rooms were all beautifully decorated, the bed was so comfy and the breakfast was served on pretty vintage crockery. If it wasnt covid there is a hot tub and sauna and cinema room which would be open. The gardens are well worth wandering through and there is a lovely stream at the bottom of the property.
