Excellent for big groups
We had a wonderful weekend away as a group of 20 adults. Plenty of space in the common room to hang out and connect, with the sleeping area distanced enough to remain quiet for early sleepers. Indoor fireplace was well stocked and very cosy. Lots of outdoor space to explore and the obstacle course was a fun bonus. Would recommend for other big groups looking for affordable accommodation.

2 night uni getaway
The property was amazing and had all the amenities we required. Its close proximity to the lake and various flat grassy areas allowed for a range of outdoor activities which was fantastic and kept us entertained all weekend. Staff members were also incredible helpful and friendly on arrival/departure, and really cared about us having an awesome weekend away. Highly recommend for any number of people of any ages
