The lodge location is ideal for exploring the surrounding area. The lodge setting is idyllic, very peaceful with bird feeders across from the decking to watch many different little birds all day. The lodge itself is well equipped with everything you need, the hot tub and sauna are fab for relaxing after a day out. The only negative we had is that the flooring in the lodge is getting to the end of its life and could be doing with being replaced. It's split in a couple of places.Overall, we had a great relaxing
