A note from the site themselves...

The site is all about nature and wildlife. At dusk bats can be seen scouting for insects and barn owls, red kites and herons are frequent visitors. Various waterfowl often raise a brood on the lake and even a pair of swans arrive in springtime. If you are lucky you may see Roe Deer and hares are almost guaranteed!

Pod - Deluxe Ensuite Wigwam Pods (Pet Friendly)Sep 2024

It's a lovely, picturesque location. Lovely view of the lake from the lodge. It is very quiet here, which is fantastic. The lodge itself is basic but has everything you need for a relaxing stay, with ensuite bathroom, small kitchen with dining table and chairs. The internet could be better.

Beautiful quiet getaway
