Overall, we had a nice stay. The lodge was very modern, clean and tidy, and spacious for two adults and two children. However, I would say it could feel a little cramped with six adults. The hot tub was a lovely addition and a much-needed extra, although unfortunately, after two days, we were unable to use it for the remainder of our stay. Two of us developed a rash, and as we were leaving, the person responsible for cleaning the pool arrived and commented on how bad its condition was. They understood why we hadn't used it during the final day and night. A few basic instructions on how to use and look after the hot tub would also have been helpful. There were a few things that could have made our stay better. On arrival, both smoke alarms had tight plastic covers over them, which we removed and tested before contacting the owner. There was also paint left in a cupboard, and the outdoor cushions were piled up in the living room rather than being stored away. We weren't provided with an entry code for the site or accommodation before arrival, and to make matters worse, someone was already occupying the lodge we were supposed to be staying in. Some basic amenities were also missing, including hand wash and anything to wash up with. The bath mat had a musty smell, the radiator in the main bedroom wasn't working, and the towels provided were very small. I'd recommend bringing extra towels, especially if you plan to use the hot tub as well as showering. Overall, it's a lovely, modern lodge, but a few small improvements, better preparation before guests arrive, and some additional essentials would make a big difference. With these little tweaks, it really could be an excellent place to stay.

We didnt like that the hot tub was unusable for the last day of our stay, along with a musty smell in the lodge which wasn't pleasant.
