We have enjoyed every aspect of the Lodge : the location, the equipment in the kitchen (superwell organised & furnished), its cleanliness, the ability to make a laundry... and waiting for the cycle to be over in a hot tub!

Extremely spacious and modern. Well situated outside of town but close enough to either walk or drive to the town centre. Bed was extremely comfortable. Partner was very excited about the toilet seperate from the bathroom so she could do her makeup in the morning whilst I did other things.

    We stayed at "Family Suite" and it was very comfortable! There were one big bed and one bank bed which our child loved. Kitchen was well-equipped and bathroom was clean, plenty of room available inside. For laundry, we used the one available in the facility (coin laundry). The camp site was full and there were several families so that children could play together. I appreciated that all waste is well sorted (compost is well marked, clear explanation of what can go into recycle bin).
