We just had an amazing 5 nights at clam shell. The location is just stunning, a fantastic place to relax. The pub being so close is perfect too, we ate there twice and absolutely delicious food. The lodge itself needs some updating, when we arrived parts hadn’t been cleaned very well, however we didn’t let this ruin our stay I just gave it a quick clean. The beds are very comfy! The kitchen is well equipped. We would definitely return and would recommend to anyone wanting to experience total peace and beautiful nature. Our dogs did pick up some ticks while there though - which I suppose is part of staying in this sort of location. However I think a first aid kit in the lodge including a tick remover would be helpful along with the contact details of a local vets etc. All round we had a great time and this place is wonderful!

Wir hatten einen wunderbaren Aufenthalt in der Clam Shell Lodge! Die Ungebung ist unglaublich schön und wir genossen die Ruhe und den Blick auf das Wasser. Es war für alles gesorgt, was wir für einen entspannten Aufenthalt brauchten und unser Familienhund war auch willkommen. Es gab immer die Möglichkeit, einen Ansprechpartner bei Fragen zu kontaktieren. In der unmittelbaren Gegend gibt es, wie im Inserat angegeben, keine Einkaufsmöglichkeiten, aber es gibt sogar die Möglichkeit, Bestellungen aufzugeben und beliefert zu werden! Somit konnten wir uns ganz auf unsere Entspannung konzentrieren. Wir hatten unsere Stand Up Paddleboards mitgebracht und konnten diese durch den direkten Wasserzugang perfekt nutzen. Alles in allem ist diese Unterkunft nur zu empfehlen und wir kommen gern wieder!
