A new level of comfort and tranquility at Riverrun Lodge. The bedrooms have been given a soft upgrade with additional furniture (couches in all the larger rooms), goose down “cloud” mattress toppers on all beds, new bed linen, pillows and quilts. A local craftsman has designed us new desks, from our stock of reclaimed hardwood timber; for four of the five rooms, as well as testing a tv unit designed for “smart” tvs. We are pioneering apple tv in all rooms with a selection of streaming movies, documentaries and radio available for guests to enjoy on our unobtrusive small but modern tvs. Complimentary wifi is available throughout the lodge. As always, guests at Riverrun enjoy the excellent services of our in-house chef. Outside we now have a conversation garden and fire pit as well as the popular but secluded hot tub located a short distance from the lodge with complete privacy and spectacular mountain views. The lodge has extensive lawns, gardens and outdoor seating areas.

And of course, further afield, guests can wander at liberty on trails across our 500 acre riverside property. We have new fishing rods and mountain bikes available for guest use.
