Post Knott Lodge Reviews

Natalie
We had a fabulous stay and we would highly recommend Post Knotts Lodge. We were grateful for the welcome pack and the goodies that were left for us to enjoy amd appreciated the ease of communication with the owner.
Susan
This house is amazing. The decor, the views and everything about the property are outstanding and well worth the cost. The welcome package and other extras were a nice touch. All communication with the property owners was very easy and they were very helpful. All my guests had a wonderful time and would book this property again.
Emily
The house is absolutely beautiful. All the furnishing are high quality, comfortable and cosy. Decent cooking facilities- could do with a few more bits for keen cooks. Great and easy 10 min or less walk to the town or to the lake side.
Kane
We had a fantastic weekend in this beautiful property! The location is absolutely amazing, with breathtaking scenery all around. The house itself is stunningâ??beautifully decorated with a cozy lodge feel that immediately made us feel at home. The space was impressive, with plenty of room for everyone, and the bedrooms were all furnished to a very high standard, which added a lovely touch of luxury. The kitchen and dining area were especially impressive and became a perfect spot for gathering. A few additions, like a hot tub, games room, or play area, would make it even more family-friendly, but overall, we had an incredible stay and thoroughly enjoyed every moment. Highly recommended!
Michael
