The park wasnt for me

Samantha
Date of stay: 4th September 2025

Hottub only did standard jets the more powerful jets didn't stay on for more than 30 seconds(yes we timed it), but other than that it was a great Lodge and so spacious. Was clean but not immaculate and sofas aren't moved to hoover underneath between visits as we found items that weren't ours on packing up.

Really enjoyed our stay, would definitely come back.

Emma Carter
Date of stay: 3rd November 2024

We had a really lovely stay overall. The lodge was perfect and the location was great, though it was quite a walk to the golf club from where we stayed. It would have been a bit tricky in the dark if one of us hadnt gone back for the car during the day. The staff were super friendly and helpful, which made our trip even better.
