The room was very spacious, nice hot water and the coffee station in the kitchen was perfect. Even though there were only 3 of us, the kitchen staff arranged a buffet dinner for us. Thank you so much

"Despite friendly helpful staff at check-in, it was a disappointing overnight stay."

5.0

The Staff were friendly and helpful on arrival and through check-in.

The lodge appears run-down and outdated, gardens, facilities and bathrooms are in need of attention. The buffet dinner was a pathetic offering for the price paid, with a very poor wine selection- nothing but cheap box wine by the glass!
