No 27 at Angel Lodge Reviews

Angel lodge is idyllic, when we arrived it was very well presented and clean. The perfect base for us and the facilities were excellent. The balcony wraps around three sides of the lodge with grassy area around perfect for the dogs. Inside was immaculate and the bedrooms and bathrooms very tastefully decorated. The kitchen was well equipped with modern appliances and the lounge very comfortable. I would high recommend this properly. The surrounding countryside was beautiful and we wish we had more time there. Five stars.
Had a lovely long weekend at Angel Lodge. We were lucky to book last minute and had a fabulous stay. Really spacious and clean, and the hot tub was great. Definitely coming back! X
We stayed at this beautiful lodge for a girls weekend to celebrate a 40th birthday, and it was absolutely stunning. The decor was stylish and welcoming, making it feel like a home away from home. Everything was spotlessly clean, and the peaceful location made it the perfect place to unwind. We all had an amazing time, and while there was no WiFi, it actually encouraged us to have more conversations and truly enjoy each others companymaking the experience even more special. Overall, a fantastic stay, and wed definitely recommend it!
