Fine for just an overnight stay.
Pros:

Overall, the hotel was fine for an overnight stay. It's a bit tired & could do with a makeover. The electric blanket on the bed didn't work, which was disappointing as it was very cold. The staff & the food were both great & we really appreciated being able to park closer than what was normally allowed, due to my physical limitations.

There was nothing awesome about our stay as a result I don’t think I will ever book at this establishment.
Pros:

Loved the food, compliments to the chef.

Cons:

The cottage was not up to standard at all, the fireplace was old and rusty. We tried lighting up fire in it in order for us to be warm, there was smoke all over the cottage as a result we had to open windows and the sliding for the smoke.

A wonderful stay with the most amazing staff that just aimed to please
Pros:

The breakfasts were great. The staff exceptional and friendly. Amazing chef Mike aimed to please. Really a value for money stay. I would definitely recommend Kings Lodge. Sia the receptionist was just the best.

Cons:

The music in the dining room we asked a few times to turn it down as you could not hear yourself speak.
