Orchard Lodge is incredible value for money. It offers that 'cabin in the woods' experience of being away from the world without having to travel miles into the wilderness!
The photos are good but they don't do the cabin justice. The areas around the cabin have much more character and charm, and are more 'weathered in' than they appear in the photos.
The veranda is a real highlight, the morning views are stunning and even in the heavy rain we were able to sit outside and enjoy the sound.
If you like wildlife, you'll enjoy visits from the squirrels and rabbits around the area, as well as a pheasant if you're lucky.
All facilities inside the cabin were more than adequate; decent oven, cooker etc., And the shower had good pressure and temperature control.
We will definitely be returning in the future.
