The table was sticky and covered in crumbs on arrival. The duvets on beds stainedCobwebs & spiders on skirting boards Saucepan was disgusting, we had to go buy our own ! !

Katie
Date of stay: 7th September 2025

We checked in just before 4pm, check in staff were lovely and helpful. Bar area very reasonably priced. We drove to our lodge and had a look round, tv unit thick of dust, the lodge needs lots of tlc. Vinyl wrapping peeling off cupboard doors and doors not on the hinges properly. Blinds full of dust. Previous peoples shopping in freezer. Its clear that cleaning staff are not doing a thorough job and maintenance need to fix issues in the lodge. Hot tub, decking and view are amazing. Ive noticed that next year is a ridiculous amount for peak season, I would not pay that and would be disappointed, would return if lodges are updated to match the big prices.

Date of stay: 7th September 2025

The lodge itself is in a perfect setting but needs some minor repairs in some areas due to the volume of usage. It doesn't detract from a wonderful stay at a great location
