Amazing quality
John
Wonderful accommodation with everything required for a great break away, the lodge comes well equipped, the beds and seating were very comfortable, the heating in the lodge was first class so even on cold winter nights I don't think a hot water bottle would be required, great locations for exploring with easy access to the A30 and good roads also fRead moreor North/South travelling, I also noticed electric charge points were in the process of being fitted during our stay, but I would check first. 10/10.
