“Stunning views and very friendly hosts”

We were slightly daunted by the steep drive to the lodge but once we got to the top ... what a view! Certainly worth the climb. Martin and Susie greeted us and promptly provided tea and biscuits. Plenty of room in this property ... several outdoor sitting/dining areas and a great cedar hot-tub. The lounge has two large areas ...... More
