“Amazing Place”
Reviewed April 6, 2018 for a stay in April 2018

This lodge is an amazing place to stay my family really enjoyed seeing all the wildlife, red squirrels, foxes, birds and of mostly the badgers, who came every night at dusk. They particularly liked the peanut butter sandwiches we put out for them!
The lodge is so lovely, comfortable and cozy with fantastic views. We explored the caves on sandy hills beach which is just a short walk and climbed Screel hill which was about 20 min drive. We did not want our break away to end and I will most definitely be booking again in the near future. My family also want to book after hearing what a great time we had. Thank you so much Christine for letting us stay in your beautiful lodge.

Thank you for your feedback . we are pleased that you enjoyed exploring the area. I am sorry to hear you found the beds too firm - we will take this into consideration when replacing the beds in future. We endeavour to update the lodge regularly and aim to make it cosy and inviting for ourguests.

Reviewed September 5, 2017 for a stay in August 2017

Second visit to this lovely cabin. So relaxing with amazing views and wildlife. Gorgeous beach a short walk away perfect for pooches. Family of badgers came visiting most evenings. I must recommend the food at the Steamboat inn and a visit to the local Deer farm. Will be booking again in the future x

“Perfect peace”
Reviewed July 20, 2017 for a stay in July 2017

The lodge was excellent with views to die for, especially overlooking the golf course at Colvend. A short distance away was the beach, tea rooms, shops everything you need on a holiday. No noises just the wildlife to watch , total relaxation. Great what more could you ask for.
