Things people ask.

Are dogs welcome?

Yes, cheerfully. Ours will greet yours. We ask that they're friendly with other dogs and that they sleep inside at night — a lot of wildlife wanders through.

Is the kitchen vegetarian?

Mostly. The café is fully veg. For longer stays or buyouts, we cook to order — including fish and eggs on request.

Can I bring kids?

Always. The lake is shallow at one end, we have life jackets for small humans, and the kitchen will make a plate of anything on request.

How early can we check in?

2 pm, officially. Earlier by arrangement — drop us a WhatsApp and we'll try. Food and a cup of something comes with the wait.

Do you have wi-fi? Is it good?

We do. It's good. It isn't great. We'd rather you used it lightly; it's that kind of place.

Can we shoot / film on the property?

Yes, with notice — we don't overlap shoots with other stays. Message us on the press route above.

— gently, what we're not for:

— we'd rather say no to the wrong fit than spoil it for the folks already here.

The lake's still there.

Whenever you're ready, write. We'll make space. If you're not sure yet, save this page and come back on a slower day.
