The lodge was spacious,well appointed and private.It was set in a really peaceful location and is a special place. The only issue is that walking around the lake was spoilt by dog owners who had not cleared up dog mess.It would be good to have a dedicated bin for this and a request included in the information pack that dog owners take responsibility for clearing up after their pets.
