    I personally thought the bed a little too soft but other would love this so it’s a personal preference but pillows were right. The sofa also I felt was too soft for the older person but again nothing that a removable fold out wooden support under the cushion seats wouldn’t cure.

    The lodge had been heated ready for our late arrival which is a great bonus at this time of year when it’s still so cold out. The fridge/freezer had all been switched on too , all appliance’s were clean and for once a nice sized scouring pad in the kitchen with good quality tea towel and better washing up liquid . Good brand dish washer tablets and shower and soap bars , well done on that score.

    As rooms are not serviced during the stay, one can easily run out of basic necessities like the toilet paper. And it’s no problem going to the reception and getting it but we stayed during Christmas and could not find any staff member that could help.

    The location and the rooms exceeded our expectations. Would definitely return during summer.

    We went away for a short break with our dogs over new year weekend. I was required to do some remote work but unfortunately the WiFi at the lodges is not good. It was slow and very hit and miss, dropping out and reconnecting. That's if you could get it to connect. The staff were aware and stated it is all due for an upgrade soon. There is also no 5G or mobile phone coverage here either. My wife and I are on 2 major mobile networks and neither had phone or 5G reception, so it's something to consider for the park and customers. The double bed was very hard... And whenever either of us turned over it creaked and squeaked. This woke us both up separately during the nights sleep.

    The location and quiet set up nestled behind a castle in a quiet valley. The lodges are clean, warm and quiet. They are very dog friendly and have easy clean wood floors. All facilities included , kitchenware, dishwasher and even washing machine with a separate shower and large corner bath. The bar is cosy and prices are acceptable for a holiday location. We will come again and recommend the location to friends.

    Check in at 5pm is very late and seems a bit unfair when check out is at 10am Restaurant doesn't offer food every day, even in half term Soaps provided make a huge mess

    Wi-Fi was not even worth advertising that you supply it, very very poor. The only thing that let the weekend down as phone signal was the same, so if you are lokkingnto go completely off-grid for communications then this is the place

    The food in the restaurant was epic, quiet place with a short walk to the small Dock.

    Parking near accommodation is limited if your party has more than one car. Cabins a little close to each other. TV’s could do with updating.

    The main bar/restaurant was very basic and as nothing else around within a mile a better menu would have been much better. Burgers and toasted sandwiches was pretty much all there was.on offer.

    The lodge was beautiful exactly as described plenty of room and lovely view from the private decking of the sea.

    The steps leading up to the property. If you’re planning on eating on-site, the restaurant is not open every night

    Lodge was clean and spacious. Bed was comfortable. Sachets of coffee and tea provided was a nice touch as well as washing up liquid and some dishwasher tablets. Area was quiet.
