home safely after a fabulous 5 nights at Lower Heywood. The apartment is beautifully kept and cosy. It has everything you need for a self catering break away. It is in a perfect central spot too. Its incredibly cosy, the bed was very comfy, fabulous shower, beautiful bath, (needs a blind replacing above the bed. For someone like me who sleeps better with the light shut out) Quirky, going down to bed 😊 Great that it…

Me and my family absolutely loved our time staying here. The place was spotless when we arrived, and check-in was super easy. We loved it so much we’re planning on going there again! Paul was super responsive with questions, and the plot is surrounded by gorgeous scenery. Would recommend you having a car as a little run around, as everything is within a 10/20 minute drive from the lodge, but would be a little diffic…

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. After wet beach walks we enjoyed warming up in front of the log burner watching a film. A really peaceful location and we felt right at home and comfortable straight away. Location was great for exploring neighbouring towns, beaches and amenities. Would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful serene oasis. Looked like the pics and didn’t disappoint. Very tasteful. Comfy furniture, soft linens, well appointed. Lots of lighting to make things bright / cozy. Nice little outdoor area surrounded by green. We loved sitting outside for breakfast and watching the many butterflies flutter past. Paul was very communicative and gave great instructions. And the digital guidebook was very helpful. We also l…
