Good to Know before you book: 

Varying Standards: Because individual lodges are owned by different people, a few guests note that minor maintenance, furnishings, or kitchen gear can vary depending on which specific lodge you book. It is therefore worth looking at the reviews for the specific lodge you're considering, rather than relying solely on the overall Badgers Retreat score. 

Steep Access: Some reviewers mention that certain lodges require navigating steps down to the entrance, which might be tricky for guests with limited mobility
