All beds are dressed with high-quality cotton and linen bedding.

Facilities & Fishing
Guests staying in the lodge have access to a 5-acre coarse fishing lake, home to carp, tench, and perch. Fishing is included in the stay, adding an extra element of relaxation and recreation to the glamping experience.
