Sheltered by mature trees at the end of a secluded valley, Otter Lodge,
previously known as the Power House, provides elegant and spacious
accommodation for four people. This lovely stone house by the stream,
is a superb example of an industrial to domestic conversion.
The generating room is now a large dining and sitting room. The water
which used to power the turbines still runs beneath the house, we have
added a viewing window in the floor. The water flows out directly under
the restored Gothic window, the wide window sill and opening windows
make a lovely place to sit above the stream. We have continued the
horseshoe theme with three very shallow steps below the window, before
the stream flows on down the valley.
Open any
window in the house and you will be charmed by the sound of the running
stream, and the song of the many birds in the trees around the house.
The high, vaulted ceiling gives an extra sense of spaciousness to an
already large room which provides a lounge area around the feature
fireplace, and a dining table which extends to seat eight people
comfortably. If you have friends or family living in the area, why not
invite them to share a meal in your wonderful holiday home?
The workshop has been turned into a fully fitted, and well equipped
kitchen with electric oven and hobs, microwave, dishwasher,
washer-drier, fridge freezer and CD radio, as well as ample cooking
equipment and place settings for eight. The window at the end of the
kitchen looks across the Goose burn to the bluebell wood - a special
delight in May time.
Otter Lodge has two bedrooms, the Master bedroom has a king sized
double bed, with an en-suite bath room with low level WC, wash basin
and bath. Access is from the lounge.
We also provide a twin bedded room which is accessed from the main hall.
A family bathroom with low level WC, hand basin and shower cubicle is in
the room next to the twin bedroom.
Otter Lodge is at a distance from the lake, and is all on one level
throughout, and so is suitable for children and disabled people. If you are
bringing young children to Otter Lodge you should be aware that the
Goose Burn flows close beside the house. It can be very fast after heavy rain.
