The Hillview Lodge was such a beautiful tranquil place to stay in.. Directions, arrival, setup, amenities, checkout - all completely seamless and easy! The lodge itself had absolutely everything you needed and was setup lovely.. It's so cosy and the views were stunning and endless! Although pet friendly I wouldn't recommend this space for young dogs.. We had our 13 year old dog with us who had a ball but our 7 month old pup had a bit too much fun and as the lodge isn't fully enclosed she ended up on multiple occasions under the actual structure of the dwelling itself 🙈 ! We quickly learnt our lesson and had to keep her on a lead for majority of the rest of the stay but this isn't a criticism of the property itself - just a note for people planning to bring their pets along for the break ❤️ ! The lodge, area, facilities and all round experience I could not fault - the hot tub was the icing on the cake 👌🏽 ! Thanks so much to Colin for an incredible experience! We'll 100% be back 😍❤
