We had a thoroughly relaxing weekend at the Crogen gatehouse lodge.
We had a thoroughly relaxing weekend at the Crogen gatehouse lodge. It was a perfect cottage - more spacious than we imagined- and with everything we needed. Super comfortable bed, lovely sofas, powerful shower and a clean modern kitchen. Lovely walks and drives around the area. Sarah, although we didn’t meet her, was helpful and welcoming by phone. A lovely welcome pack provided too. There is no enclosed garden for a dog- but we were aware of this and it was fine for us- as there was space for our dog to have a wander on the grass alongside the estate drive - and in the adjacent field.We would definitely return.
