Top quality accommodation in a lovely woodland setting. Very pretty surroundings in a quiet site. Fishing lakes and woodland walks were all well maintained. There was abundant wildlife to watch.

Everything about Chaffinch Lodge was perfect. It is set in a beautiful position overlooking one of the 5 lakes, the lodge was spotless when we arrived and we could find absolutely nothing wrong, it was as good as it can get. The area is so peaceful and the fishing was second to none, I finished with a personal best, and had brilliant fishing every day. Will definitely be back.
