On-Site Craft Workshop
Patrick Moki, a talented carpenter following in the footsteps of his father, who worked at the Lodge throughout his career, operates from a workshop located just inside the Lodge gates, near the car park. Patrick takes special commissions from our guests for wooden sculptures and metalwork, and also offers a selection of paintings, carvings, bracelets, and other handcrafted items for sale. His warm and friendly nature makes him a delight to interact with, and our guests always enjoy their conversations with him.
