+The property was a nice location. The bed was very comfortable. The decor is interesting. Loved the breakfast.
−The bathroom is shared between the three bedrooms. It wasn't a problem as we were the only guests, but this was not made clear on the booking site that the booking was made. The mannequins in the lounge are a bit creepy.

“Tricky to find”
+Jeweline went above and beyond to make my stay work for me. I was too scared to drive the "road" at night so she drove me into Thames to meet my friends for dinner and offered to come and get me when we were done. The bed was very comfortable and everything was spotless.
−I found the property difficult to find and the road was little more than a goat track. There is no mention of the road on Booking.com. I was too scared to try and drive it at night. The shared bathroom was taken over by the other guests with all their personal toiletries spread over the counters making me feel like I was intruding on their space. I was unable to get the TV to go. I also found the aviator theme over the top.

+I highly recommend this accommodation as a beautiful place to chill out and refresh body and soul. I received a warm welcome and enjoyed the comfortable, attractive and relaxing facilities and environment. The breakfast was excellent. I'd love to go there again!
−I've nothing but praise for the Lodge owners. Unfortunately Booking.com hasn't yet actioned their request to remove the "pets welcome" filter. My hosts were a little taken aback when I turned up with my young dog; maybe they missed my message in the booking that she was coming too? - but were extremely obliging and managed to cope with us both admirably!! Hopefully Booking.com will update the advertising very soon.

“ok, aber nicht mehr”
+Frühstück war für neuseeländische Verhältnisse ok, es gab aber keine Möglichkeit nach zu nehmen
−Das Zimmer mit den 2 Betten war extrem klein, wenn jede Person einen Koffer mithat. Tür war nicht einmal ordentlich zu öffnen.
