“It's a place where the forest truly comes alive, offering a tranquil base for observing the local red squirrels and a variety of birdlife right outside the window. The lodge itself wraps you in a cozy atmosphere, clearly curated with thoughtful touches and complemented by comfortable beds and a robust shower. This spot feels so right, it's easy to see why one would plan a return visit, perhaps to catch the autumn colours after a spring visit.”
