The view of the hotel is absolutely stunning! Sadly we are only staying for one night. We have a nice view from our room, and even a surprising sunset view from the toilet! We had dinner before heading to the hotel, but I instantly regretted it because the menu looks attractive and you could sit outside and look at the great view. The breakfast was very nice as well.

The host welcomed us & showed us to our beautifully furnished room with all you could need for a short stay (tea & coffee facilities, toaster, little fridge to keep things cool, Wi-Fi & tv). Spotlessly clean room and bathroom- and such a comfortable bed :) Also very short drives to some lovely places to visit.

We were immediately welcomed and given a tour of the beautiful building, including the garden and the two lounges. Everywhere was kept toasty thanks to the fire places, and there were lots of books and board games available to pass the time. Our room was spacious, clean and kept supplied with lush hot chocolate, tea, etc. We had a fantastic view of the lake too. The staff were absolutely wonderful and couldn't be more helpful. Had a lovely chat with Ed one day, then Angela the next! The food was fantastic, I would highly recommend grabbing at least one dinner there, and definitely go down for breakfast every day. Wonderful selection, and exceedingly tasty. Incredibly cooked by the owner and solo chef, Richard!

Brilliant stay in a clean, well-equipped lodge that was cosy and tidy. Hot tub was a brilliant addition. Also loved that the lodge was on the end so feels more private.

A great quiet place for a family holiday. The cottage is quite large and it's cosy. Has a lovely fireplace and everything you need to feel at home. There is a nice garden where the children can play. There is a café 2 min. away.

Every last detail was very well though of, location is amazing, it's the perfect retreat for a relaxing weekend. The cabin is very charming better than the pictures, very cozy and the bathtub is perfect for the end of a hiking day. They have some lovely cats and you can see the farm animals out the window, 1000% recommend.
