Self check in with info on a chalk board. Initially didn’t see the board and no one around. Didn’t meet anyone in person during stay. Room wasn’t that clean. Cobwebs and dust, old water bottle down back of bed, nuts on the carpet. Shower gels on top of shower. Nice setting, safe and quiet. Nice cafe downstairs. Room was spacious with character.

Great weekend getaway

Great hosts, beautiful location. The accommodation is a fantastic conversion and the rooms are very nice. Free Breakfast is handy if you want something quick or if you’re willing to go spend some money in the cafe I’d recommend it as the food and atmosphere is lovely.

What a fantastic jewel of a find! Gareth & his staff were so welcoming. Our room was one of the smaller ones but spotless & all we needed for 2 nights, with a great fancy, modern en suite shower. Outside caterers on the Friday night provided fantastic food & the Wee Bear Cafe provides superb home made fayre during the day. Would definitely recommend this wonderful place to stay.

No fry up breakfast but otherwise ok.

Nice lodge, spacious family room. Very quiet location. Only disappointment is Hotels.com advertised it as providing full breakfast but basically you were given access to a communal kitchen where cereal, toast, jam, juice cartons and some fruits were self service. We didn't mind so much but others who are expecting a proper fry up breakfast may be dissatisfied.

Liked: Amenities
Lots of parking , good WiFi and quiet . Lovely location but just needs a bit more attention . I was the only customer and the cleaner wizzed in before I arrived sadly not actually cleaning or removing rubbish from communal area . The bin in the kitchen was full and should have been emptied prior to my arrival . The radiator in my room didn’t work and although there was an oil filled radiator it’s not ideal in a small room due to risk of hitting yourself on it. I couldn’t find a hair dryer when I needed it on the morning of departure. The help yourself breakfast was ok although I’m not keen on using opened milk as you’re not certain how it’s been dealt with previously especially when it’s up on the day . I couldn’t see any drying cloths so had to leave items to drain as had previous occupant.

Nice place. Lovely cafe adjacent.

Spoke to Lodge beforehand as we were turnng up very late. All very accomodating. Bed felt as though it was sloping down and my husband felt he was about to fall off when turning over. Other than that the room wasvery comfortable and certaiyvadequate for what we were after. Breakfast is basic cereals, coffee, tea and toast available on a DIY basis in guest kitchen lounge area. Although Wee Bear Cafe is available for foid etc after 1000, which is after check out at 0930.

Great room mix up with details on website

There was a mix up between the website and the lodge. Check in is 4pm on wards. Checkout is 9.30 not 11am. No full breakfast only self service breakfast and access to some items. Location is beautiful, relaxing and quiet. Gareth is lovely and friendly and helpful. Room was the small room but perfect for what we needed. We had a lovely staff. Explained to Gareth the mix up with hotels.com and said worth checking the details.

Martin

Disliked: Staff & service
Would highly recommend checking with the property agent that the booking is valid when you book. I booked this last minute. Arrived at the attached cafe ( which I’d highly recommend) a couple of hours before check-in only to be informed that the rooms had already all been booked. Was given no help whatsoever by the unprofessional property owner who I’m assuming brought her very young child to avoid any escalation and just told us to take our anger out on Expedia. We were also told by herself and another member of staff that this wasn’t the first time this had happened. Over a week later she still hasn’t confirmed we were turned away at the property leaving us hanging on getting a refund. Luckily Expedias staff expedited our request for a refund but the whole ordeal has left a sour taste.

Overall our stay was good. I think we arrived before the season started so no cafe, rubbish being removed and resurfacing. The owners communicated about this once we arrived. Certain areas had not yet been revamped - areas of the bathroom notably.
