Chicken Run Reviews

Great friendly hospitality, lodge as described, very clean and well stocked. Highly recommended

Excellent service, very friendly and helpful Would definitely recommend

Everything was beautiful all looked new lots of care and attention to detail! Bed was big and exceptionally comfortable! Hot tub lovely and outdoor space gorgeous. Lovely and warm even in December Only thing I didnt like was no curtains in Lounge area, you arent overlooked at all but I like to close curtains at night when relaxing.

What a beautiful place to stay, comfortable and easy and some nice touches. Whilst there are lots to do around the area whether walks or short drives to places we could have easily stayed in the lodge all the time! Owners on hand to help with anything and with the up and coming additions they are making this place is just going to get better. We will return for sure!

The best lodge stay ever! the lodge was perfect for me and my family 2 adults, 2 kids and a dog. Everything from the cute set up inside, to the hot tub and fire pit, we all enjoyed every moment of our stay. The owners were more than accommodating, in responding to messages and answering questions. Highly recommend this place for family and friend breaks. We can't wait to go back and enjoy the lodge all over again. The main thing I liked about the lodge that it was clean and well thought through. Thanks for an amazing stay x
