There is a newly planted Yew hedge at this property that we would like to ask all guests and pets to please avoid as the planting used isn't non-toxic, so please stick to the paths and gravel. We would also like to ask guests to make sure that the driveway and small gate are always kept closed to prevent sheep entering the property so that no harm comes to them or the property.



Up to two well-behaved dogs are welcome to stay at The Lodge per reservation. However, we would like to ask guests to please make sure that any dogs brought to this property avoid the flower beds and do not foul on the newly gravelled area.
