Gamekeeper's Lodge is available for booking all year round. One really nice feature of this cottage is that the indoor swimming pool is adjacent to the cottage. Gamekeepers can be booked together with The Lawns, also on the Colmer Estate, for family groups that wish to meet up over the fesrtive period. Because this particular cottage has just 2 bedrooms it would equally well suit older couples who may like the additional bedroom to spread out.
