The pictures do not do it justice!
Finished and kept in such a high standard. Stunning place with stunning hosts! Philippa and her husband were very welcoming and very helpful with recommendations, all of which were correct. You have to eat at The Dog House (one of the recommendations) gorgeous food, atmosphere and staff at a great price for unbelievable quality. Its so quiet and away from everything yet there's loads of walks and place to visit. Unbelievably dog friendly area and again our hosts provided as much for our dog as us.Thank you for having us. We will be back!!!
Spent a week here in the heritage retreat lodge.
1 of 2 lodges on this site and what a treat. Shortly after arrival we were greeted by one of the owners who was lovely explained a few things and offered some advice about the local area. Overall the owners were lovely people, great hosts. The lodges were open plan, furniture and fittings to a high standard big TV, nice comfy furniture, two large bedrooms and 1 large shower room. Beds were spring mattress which was tougher for us because we sleep on a memory foam so that was more of a personal preference, although spring and not ideal for us they were of good quality. One thing to bare in mind is that even with the heating off, due to the hot weather when we was out for the day we would return and the lodge would be so hot we'd have to air the place out for an hour or so, only for it to get hot again in the middle of the night. Things that would enhance the stay would be a small hoover somewhere for use to keep on top of dust and dirt (the site did allow us to borrow there's so we could do a quick mid week clean) The addition of coat hooks for coats and leads would be nice. It's great that the dog was included in the price and bowls towels and treats were provided for our pooch. Although the decking had movement sensored lighting if you want to walk your dog late at night the site has no lighting so bring a torch or camping light with you. Chocolates on the pillows when we arrived and fresh milk in the fridge was a lovely touch just to make us feel even more at home. The site was very clean and tidy bins emptied every day and the grounds kept well, very peaceful and views from our decking and hot tub were stunning. Overall had a lovely stay and didn't want to go home, will definitely visit again.
Arriving during a heatwave we were very grateful to Dave’s friendly welcome, allowing us access to our accommodation early.
We also found the owners Phillipa and Glynn extremely friendly and accommodating. The Heritage Retreat was beautifully styled to a high standard, super comfy bed and powerful shower, which are a must for us. Great location, pub approx 5min walk which serves good, reasonably priced pub grub and you can also take a lovely woodland walk to Monknash Beach. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend.
