"Our stay at the Rabbit lodge was absolutely amazing! The setting was peaceful and picturesque, with stunning lakeside views right outside our window. The lodge was beautifully designed, spotlessly clean, and equipped with every comfort we could wish for.

Hedgehog lodge was immaculately clean throughout the inside and outside, would definitely recommend. The lodge had everything you would need for a great stay. Loved our 5 days.

Kim

Fantastic lodge, spotless, beautiful decorated, two comfy couches, lovely dining area. Beds very comfortable. Great attention to detail. Stayed in the hedgehog lodge with a small dog.

Paul

Date of stay: 20th April 2025

Our lodge Rabbit was modern, impeccably clean, and had everything you could wish for, for a stay of a couple of day, up to a couple of weeks or more. The Rabbit name brought with it a rabbit theme, both to the interior design and decoration, I want to be clear that it is very well done and is in no way an over the top theme that sometimes takes over sites.The lodge interior is to a very high standard, with quality appliances, furniture, and fixtures and fittings. The rooms are spacious, with plenty of storage. The decking area is also generously sized with all the deck furniture you could wish for, and very easy access the the fishing lake, and dedicated fishing peg. The bedrooms and bathrooms are a good size, with the master having an en-suite shower room, and walk in wardrobe.
