The two resident geese can be a bit scary when they come up close to you, might upset children if they wish to play outside, and you have to watch where you are walking due to their droppings.. The lodge is clean, comfortable and warm with all the mod cons expected in a self catering place and they all worked well. The safe we found in one of the wardrobes, we were unable to use, as it was locked and is the only item that there are no instructions for in the folder provided. It is on a flight path, so we were often woken up around 6 am with the noise from the planes and the geese honking. Some of the items of crockery were chipped, but as there were only two of us staying, we just used the ones that were OK. Larger bath towels would have been appreciated, but we always gripe about this, even some of the best hotels do not provide decent sized towels. Net curtains, or blinds at the bedroom windows would make an improvement. The lodges are quite close, so we kept the curtains closed in the bedroom to give us privacy from the neighbours, making the room dark.
This sound like a lot of complaints, but we were happy with the accommodation and enjoyed our time there. Weather was good and we were able to sit out on the veranda most afternoons enjoying the sunshine while drinking our tea.
