The torch/night lights were a genius addition to the lodge. The cottage was lovely I just wish my dog liked the wood fire, she spent the next hour after us lighting it that there was a fire there :( lol. The only thing I missed was a knife sharpener as the kitchen knives were a bit blunt, but there was everything else anyone would need for their hoRead moreliday. Welcome packs provided were very good (there were binoculars too!) and although there is no walkable shop the supermarket is only 10 min drive. Hide
