The lodges are a little tired but clean and spacious. TVs in all the bedrooms and plenty of toilet roll shampoos etc provided. The kitchen is very well equipped and you also get left a loaf of bread, jams, tea/coffee, milk, sugar, salt and pepper, dishwasher tabs, washing machine tabs, bin bags, cloth, tea towels. There’s an oven, hob, microwave, toaster, fridge freezer, kettle, coffee machine (filtered), washing machine and dishwasher plus an iron and ironing board. There’s a big coop 2 miles away in the village nearby for getting your supplies. There’s also a few takeaways that deliver (Fortune Inn Chinese was excellent). You can park outside your lodge. The leisure centre onsite is good for lunch and the bar in the hotel serves a nice lunch. Dinner was nice also in the hotel. Staff are all lovely. The hotel has a toddler play room and a teenage games room with pool, air hockey and a couple of arcade games. There was plenty of areas for kids to play with balls etc and it seems perfect for kids to take bikes. In the school holidays they have extra activities. Saw red squirrels and pheasants outside lodge which was nice and there are squirrel feeders on the trees. Even though the place was fully booked it really didn’t feel busy which was great. All in all I feel it was value for money and all the staff were so welcoming, we all had a lovely relaxing time, would come again for sure.
