This is the perfect retreat. Nestled in the countryside, the lodge offers stunning views from sunrise to sunset. It backs on to land and is within walking distance of Saxtead Green Post Mill. The lodge itself was pure luxury! Everything is impeccably clean and well-maintained and the log cabin is everything you could hope for and more! The lodge we stayed in had everything needed to be able to cook meals indoors but we made use of the BBQ area too. Loved that there was a proper coffee machine and milk frother too...a great little touch that meant no compromise on my caffeine hit! The lodge is
