    Fantastic stay, highly recommended. The owner was personable and friendly and because of her I believe the place has a w

    It felt like a home - very welcoming and clean with a very user friendly and generous kitchen. Lovely log fire and couches. Fantastic views and right in town. Lots of useful kitchen items if you are travelling light. Bed was super comfortable (I booked a room to myself)

    I felt the number of toilets and showers were a bit low, especially if the lodge was full. I would not have wanted to wait too long for the toilet (only saw 2 toilets and 2 showers). I never encountered a problem personally though. Lots of products left behind though so very generous if you are travelling light.
