outdoor furniture, a gas fired fire pit is provided as well as a bbq and storage area for your bikes. Secure parking is available at the main property with a short walk across the scenic garden to the private entrance to the retreat. The woodfired hot tub will come with a few bag of logs which will serve at least two days use. Following that we can supply logs as necessary for a small charge.

In addition to the lodge, there is a separate summer house for your exclusive use, with further furniture inside to relax and enjoy the peaceful sounds of the flowing river. The sofa in here doubles up as a bed, but perhaps better for use in the warmer months as the summer house isn’t heated.
