Good spot, great view! Classic lake fishing lodge. Quite a steep driveway - not an issue to drive but worth noting if you have less able people. A good open plan lounge/kitchen .

Family holiday

We had a great 1 week stay here with 4 adults and 2 teens, more than enough space for us all.Facilities were good, location is quiet and what a view from the house especially on a sunny morning. Only negative point is that novice kayakers like ourselves might find it difficult getting the kayaks down to the lake. Would definitely stay here again.

Just right!

Perfect get way! Well presented, spacious and everything you need. We loved the view and the fire place made the back feel so cosy and warm. Stunning part of the country to explore. We'll be back for a summer time lake experience!

Peaceful Beauty

A comfortable, clean and tidy home. Beautiful views of the lake from the deck. It was raining the whole weekend, but the view still beautiful, and we were cozy and dry. Great place to get away from it all and have some peaceful downtime together as a family. Thank you for a lovely stay.
