Included

What comes as standard

Beds made, towels out, nothing to bring but yourselves.

Wi-Fi throughout

So you can share the photos, or work a day if you have to.

A real guest manual

Why book with us

Book direct and pay about 10% less

The lodges are listed on Airbnb too, and the nightly rate looks similar. The difference is their guest service fee, which lands on your bill and not ours. Book here and that fee is not there at all.

  • Around 10% cheaper for the same dates, same lodge
  • You talk to the people who run it, not a call centre
  • We can be flexible on arrival when we know in advance

Before you book

Common questions

Yes. Our direct prices are around 10% lower than the same dates on Airbnb, because we are not paying their guest fee. Same place, same team, less money.

At many of our places, yes. Where they are, we ask that they stay off the furniture, that they are only in the living room, and that they are not left alone. It varies by property, so check the listing before you book.

Entry is by key safe. The code and the exact location come through in your arrival message, along with directions and everything else you need.

It depends where you are staying. Some of our places are a short walk from a shop and others are a proper drive from the nearest supermarket. Your arrival message tells you which, so you can shop on the way in if you need to.
