A relaxing stay with great views, good food, strong Wi-Fi and a chilled atmosphere, though slightly let down by dated ro
Pros:

- Good location - good views from the balcony & standard sitting arrangements in the balcony as well for a coffee or drink. Very calm vibe.
- Good food - bit haphazard seating at the restaurant. Service is relaxed.
- Chilled vibe at the bar with nice jazz music in the background.
- Really good internet connection.
- Comfortable bed

Cons:

- Average but expensive wine - a bottle of Gran Rosso Negroamaro - Primitivo costed £30 instead of market price of under £10.
- Tiny Tv where smart feature not working - it shows YouTube as an option but nothing happens when you click on it using the remote.
- No handheld shower
- Dated wallpaper
- Limited room service food options

Lovely place to stay, and remarkably well appointed.
Pros:

The lodge was extremely well equipped and tastefully decorated. The reception and restaurant staff were very pleasant and helpful.

Cons:

The restaurant was fully booked for dinner on both nights of our stay. The staff managed to squeeze us in on the first night, but it was really a bit too crowded. We were also bothered by noisy late night customers in the lodge next to us.
