Great getaway for peaceful weekend in the hills. Lovely lodge set in beautiful surrounds. The owner friendly and welcoming. Had the fire going for us when we arrived on a cold wet night, with great breakfast provisions supplied. Good location, close to near by local shops and cafes.

Great location and very relaxing environment, however we found it a little annoying waking up by the jacuzzi in early morning around 6am as the jacuzzi just located above the bedroom. Both of us got bugs bites from sleeping in the twin bed.
