Reviews of River Lodge
"Our week in this property has been fantastic. It is one of the most beautiful locations and properties we have ever stayed in. Everything you could possibly want was provided. The place is so cosy and warm. We managed to get out on some stunning local walks most days, but one day the rain never stopped but we were more than happy to stay in and enjoy this lovely house. Owners Julie and John were lovely and really welcoming. We have just got back today and are already looking to book again !"
