Welcome

Bright, modern and of unique design, Bob’s Lodge is a spacious two-storey property which offers families five-star luxury with all the comforts of home, and is suitable for those with restricted mobility.

Cantilevered off a bank, guests enter via ground level and out through trifold doors from the lounge on to a magnificent elevated tri-deck area overlooking a field of grazing sheep.

With plenty of space for alfresco dining; features include hammocks, wooden ergonomic sun loungers, charcoal pizza oven and gas barbecue. 

Leading off the main deck is a further deck which houses a huge geodesic dome with a sumptuous super-king-sized circular bed and telescope for a spot of stargazing.
