TIG’s mums review
Another wonderful birthday surprise weekend, and only one word can describe it – paradise! This little boathouse is found at the end of a private track, a secluded hideaway overlooking the lake, with it’s own jetty, chairs and loungers, and a beautiful sense of peace and tranquillity. Inside, it is perfectly equipped for simple living, offering an escape from busy lifestyles. No Wi-Fi, TV, oven or phone signal – if this bothers you, don’t come here!

Watching the sun rise from our bed, boating through the early morning mist, and swimming from our own private jetty, were all highlights of this amazing stay – the warm, sunny weather was definitely a bonus, but how cosy would it be with a roaring log fire?!
