As expected.

Were you happy with them?

So, so. Lakeside lodge bedding & furniture damp, could smell & feel dampness at night. Cooking/storage facilities fine. ********** NOTE from Angling Lines. These comments relate to the lakeside lodge & not the cottage. Because the lodge is so close to the lake (3 metres) it's inevitable that in rainy damp conditions that there will be a damp feeling about the place. If it's good weather it'll never be a problem. If you're looking to avoid this completely always book the cottage (5 mins from the lake) not the lakeside lodge ***********

General Comments:

Beautiful venue, friendly owners. If not fishing & not used to camping have the cottage rather than the lodge. The lodge is suitable for fishermen who sleep in tents by the lake & not for the families who join them.
