I sat in the garden with a cuppa and had a read of your guest book.  I so agree with everyone, the Lodge is a great place to stay.  Watch out for the wildlife first thing in the morning, I got some good photos.

I don’t really like cats but when you meet Shadow he wins you over.  He came and sat at the table, a good sun spot.

Hope to be back again.
