Wedding Services

We have a range of local services for weddings etc

These include caterers and additional accommodation options. These are separate to the lodge and need to be contacted independently.

Accommodation

Although the lodge accommodation is of a high standard there are some people who may wish to stay elsewhere for privacy or to avoid a very late night.
