Great getaway for peaceful weekend in the hills. Lovely lodge set in beautiful surrounds. The owner friendly and welcoming. Had the fire going for us when we arrived on a cold wet night, with great breakfast provisions supplied. Good location, close to near by local shops and cafes.

Great location and very relaxing environment, however we found it a little annoying waking up by the jacuzzi in early morning around 6am as the jacuzzi just located above the bedroom. Both of us got bugs bites from sleeping in the twin bed.

A seperate heater in the bathroom would have made our stay over an unseasonably cold and wet weekend more bearable. Room a lot more cramped than we expected.

It was amazing- there’s this whole other world of pure blissful natural abundance and you are gently and safely introduced to it from the point of setting föot outside your suite. You’ll have all the facilities you need for a warm and comfortable stay. A good place to visit if you need to hit that reset button.
