"surrounding's are beautiful and in lovely Cotswolds area. however the lodge was a bit disappointed by the quality. doors to the deck doesn't close or open properly, you need to pull and push so many times to get this right, so we ended up opening only one door. also deck and roof weren't cleaned properly, so much spider webs and dust which we had to brush out ourselves. you could tell they were there for months built up to that stage. other windows were very stiff to open and close too. lack of kitchen equipment and filthy old stuff. chopping board was terribly rotten. hot tub was old, little covers and bits come off all the time. overall built quality of the lodge was poor, not great kitchen equitment, need to be maintained and cleaned properly, overall dated although they said it's renovated not long ago. really bad horse poo smell 24/7 (right next to stable). so many flies that we couldn't even get away from. I've been to better places than this at cheaper price at great location.. I wouldn't probably come back."

"But dirt around inside rims of all patio doors/Windows and cobwebs inside skylights clearly not been cleansed for long time and as this is bungalow they are easily accessible. Property needs maintenance, glazing old and condensation in all rooms each morning, one bedroom still has single glazing and looks bad. Sealant in all bathrooms coming away, loo seat loose, main bedroom door won't shut, constantly running tap in cloaks toilet, couldn't use shower as unable to turn dial- did text housekeeper and she said previous guest must have turned it too tight. Clearly not checked before we arrived and I didn't try to force it in case it broke. Lock to back door unable to remove key once locked! Some wall and ceiling paintwork needs attention. I don't dig deep looking for problems all of this was obvious from outset. Location and space property offered was excellent but for the price and rating I expected a much better maintained property."

"The accommodation itself was fine - not at all luxury but non the less fine.Good points:Plenty of space Only a small number of lodgesVery helpful onsite staffPretty decent restaurant on site Nice locationThings we didn't like:The hot tub was useless to us for 2 reasons: the lid was just too heavy to lift and you may as well be in it on a busy street as it is totally overlooked by the other lodges and the campersWi fi was very patchyBut the worst thing and the things which would stop us going back is the fact our lodge had what would have been a beautiful view of the Thames however right in front of us was a patch of grass which they filled with campers. They where very noisy until late at night and whenever we opened the curtains they where "there" virtually in our living room and fully blocking our view. This totally spoiled what could have been a lovely location for us."

"The lodge was spacious and the central heating keeps it nice and cosy.The downsides...The mattress on the bed is well past it's sell by date and has no central support . It's like sleeping on a steep hill.The sofa in the living/sleeping area is also shot. Oh and it's not clear from the website that it's a combined living and sleeping room.Parking space is tiny.The private hot tub is 5ft from the road with precious little privacy.The kitchen is a good size but a little more effort with the quality and range of utensils would add a luxury feel.The welcome pack was really just the hospitality basket you get at a chain hotel... minus the biscuits. I actually laughed out loud. At expensive price I expected more."

"We booked to stay at the house for the end of the fishing season. Accommodation is well appointed with wonderful views and access to a good section of the Thames. There are 4 bedrooms, each of which sleep 2 people and a couple of bathrooms. House has everything you could need for a holiday. Only slight downside was the heating, which took a bit of working out. All in all, one of the better holiday lets we have used on the Thames, close to the village but far enough away to be able to enjoy peace and quiet. Only drawback was the parking, there are spaces for 2 cars only. Nevertheless, we were suitably impressed that we have booked the same house for next March already."
