The kitchen is fully equipped with a washing machine, fridge/freezer, built-in oven, and microwave, making it perfect for both casual meals and leisurely cooking.
The master bedroom features a king-size bed, a TV, and a stylish en-suite shower room including complimentary Molton Brown toiletries, while the twin bedroom with 3' single beds shares access to a contemporary family bathroom. Sliding doors open onto the private decking area, extending the living space outdoors and providing the perfect spot to enjoy the peaceful surroundings.
For added luxury, adult bathrobes and slippers are provided, and the lodge includes WiFi for those who wish to stay connected.
