“Very comfortable and enjoyable stay at a good price.”
Great location, clean and tidy units, good value for money and loved the log burner so we could dry all of our wet golf gear.

“Comfortable and quiet place. Perfect layout and great amount of space for 5.”
Great chalet with plenty of space for 5 people. We would love to visit again during winter and relax in front of the fire. The place was clean and comfy.

“Great location, wonderful staff, very comfortable lodgings”
We stayed in both Barkers Lodge and the Cedar Chalets. Bill went out of his way to accommodate us and make sure we had everything we needed. Barkers Lodge was warm, comfortable and provided a very generous continental breakfast. The Cedar Chalets were private, spacious and very comfortable. All within a few minutes walk of the town centre. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay - thank you!
