Could be lovely - but needs a lot of attention.
The worst was the VERY dangerous electric towel rail â this is hot to burning levels â I burned my hand twice hanging up towels and when I caught my elbow on it while getting out of the bath and it immediately blistered and burned through layers of skin casing a nasty burn which is still painful 5 days on. There are no rails in the bath or wall and it is quite a high bath - so nothing to get hold of when getting in and out and Iâm a fit adult. This would be really dangerous for children, anyone elderly or disabled â the rail is a real health and safety issue heating to the temperature of an iron and was not even labelled with a warning sign as dangerous as very hot. When we arrived at 4.30 (check in was from 4.00) the wooden floors and tiled entrance had recently been mopped and were very wet meaning that both humans and dogs were slipping a lot until they were eventually dried. We couldn't use the drive for parking as a large ATV was parked there for the duration of our stay so we had to park on the road â meaning we had to carry all the luggage and load dogs directly onto the road in the rain. Parking area was very overgrown so passenger had to get out into thorns. Dustbins are left out at the front of the cottage - adding to the general dilapidated appearance. The upstairs floor looked derelict â even worse state than downstairs. The photos must be old that were used in the advert as it didnât live up to expectations. Random clutter left in corners and behind the washer â which had been poorly fitted so that the doors didnât close. Needs a thorough update, decorate inside and out and a deep clean. Paint on windows cracked inside and out. Light switches, plug sockets, table mats, chopping board all needed cleaning. Curtains in sitting room and hall were grubby on the bottoms and dusty with cobwebs. Damp on bedroom wall. Fuse boxes all exposed â need boxing in. Only one loo roll for 4 nights and 3 dishwasher tablets seems rather mean. The garden is a jungle and not dog proof. Nettles and thorny roses everywhere, full of weeds and overgrown shrubs, junk and dying planters. Such a shame as it could be a lovely place to sit out. View from kitchen was onto a mass of nettles. So â whilst it was in a beautiful location with walks close by, I would not recommend it until plenty of TLC has been lavished on it. Photos available. Bit of a long list - but it wasn't cheap and we expected better.

Cottage is lovely.
Seemed recently refurbished, immaculate, comfortable and clean. Lovely and spacious for two adults and a child plus two doggies. Bed comfy and everything and more youâd expect for a self catering cottage. Only negative was the Tankerville Arms itself. There is a menu online plus one was printed and left in cottage. Menu was very varied and sounded lovely so we had planned to eat there on the first night. Pub was empty when we arrived (tea time during the Easter weekend) and was told that the blackboard menu was all they had. 4 starters and 4 mains. Not the 3-4 page menu we had seen in website or that was left in our cottage. When we questioned this we were just told that was all they had. By this time my 5 year old son was starving so we ordered for him and went elsewhere. He didnât eat much of the food, chips werenât really cooked properly and heâs not usually fussy. I think the menu needs to be removed from the website and not printed and provided for guests as itâs misleading. We would definitely stay in cottages again but wonât be eating at the pub.

This is a beautifully presented cottage in a quiet area away from it all.
Great things provided by the owners such as fairy liquid, Andrex toilet tissue and other homely bits and pieces. Fantastic welcome tray with wine too! The heating was just right and we didn't need the fire as it was so cosy. The downside, if we're being hyper critical is the lack of parking space and the really uncomfortable wooden frames on the sofa, in all honesty we only noticed this as we had 4 days of bad weather so were inside more than out. Top tip would be to pull in on road and get key, then open up back door to unload things. Rather than off bridleway as this has a weird camber on it and my Toyota yaris got caught at the front! Scrapping it to get off. There's parking behind garage and my car fitted on, just. The road is not overly busy, except first and last thing. Easy to reverse back out of parking space onto it. There's a little bypass over through Cowshill so if you face wrong way just drive around. We have had a wonderful few days here and would go back, hopefully in the dry so we could see the stars!!

The bed was very comfortable and the shower was good. I was given the address and a key safe code, but there were 5 unmarked key safes. I tried all of them but some would not open. I telephoned but the first 2 options went to answerphone in the middle of the afternoon. I tried option 4 and spoke to someone who just told me what I already knew. I eventually got the top key safe open and got the key. The front door would not lock. My room was on the ground floor very close to the pavement and road. The room was very warm 25C with no way to cool it down. Opening the windows was difficult because of the blinds and this let more noise in from cars parking outside and traffic going past. The wash basin was loose, as was the shower head holder. There were no obvious tea spoons but on the last day I found some small ones inside some plastic beakers. I was woken up early every morning as people in the other 4 rooms left the property as my room was nearest the front door.

We had a wonderful stay at The Lodge, from arrival it felt like a home from home.
The layout of the ground floor is excellent and we made the most of the amazing views from both the conservatory to the front, and orangery to the rear. We were fortunate to have had a sunny and hot week, so the bifold windows in the orangery were always open in an evening. Just the sounds of sheep and birds it was bliss. The property is extremely comfortable and thoughtfully furnished. A couple of niggles which let it down slightly - on arrival the kitchen (orangery) floor had not been swept, and there were crumbs over the worktops. It didn't take long for us to rectify this, but it would have been nice not to have needed to. Also, the front garden was in some need of maintenance, the grass desperately needed cutting and the flowers were struggling through the weeds. Elsdon is a great spot for exploring and The Lodge is ideally situated. We can't wait to visit again next year.
