We had a wonderful overnight stay here. The cabin was really lovely - cosy and warm, with all the facilities you could want. The evening meal was very good, and everyone working there was incredibly friendly and helpful - thanks so much to you all. It was great to meet the gorgeous dog too!

Pleasant stay, nice room and lovely common lounge area.
The breakfast hall is quite small and gets crowded, but the food is good. This also applies to the dinner.

The hotel was surrounded by absolute beauty. We stayed in the cabin as a couple, which was perfect and romantic. It is also big enough for family. The hotel breakfast was plenty and delicious as well.
