The Cedar Hotel has just been newly renovated in 2020 by the three sisters of the Millar Family, this hotel was previously known as The Hunting Lodge which was a successful hotel for 30 years previously. Before this it was a School house which first opened in 1888.

We have renovated the hotel to the highest of standards and brought a bit of country chic to the area.

Many of the rooms offer wonderful views across the forest. All of which are equipped with tea and coffee making facilities, flat screen TV and complimentary Wi-Fi.
