    I'd rented a lodge for a one night break for one and it was ideal. Plenty of space for the max of 8. If it was all adults you'd have to draw tickets for room allocation as all so different! Perfect views. Was impressed with the location of the end lodge feeling I was on the edge of a woodland. Very clean, enough cooking pots in kitchen. Sofa comfier than it looks on photos. Perfect view from bed. Liked having decking upstairs and downstairs.
