Bedw at Birch Banc Retreats Reviews

Fantastic stay Very clean and cosy
Beautiful place to stay. Exactly as we expected from the online description. Immaculately clean and well equipped. Bed comfy. Must do is sitting outside at 1am to see the most amazing sky and stars. Great communication from owner.We has to cut our trip short due to illness but will hopefully return.
We had the most amazing time this weekend. The perfect little lodge to get away from it all. It had everything you could need and was sparkly clean. We will be back again in the future! Thank you
