Guests say
Hazel Lodge in Skegness offers a spacious and clean environment with a hot tub as a highlight. Guests appreciate the helpful staff and the beautiful setting, though some have concerns about noise and the standard of amenities. Fishing opportunities are a draw, but disruptions due to matches have been noted.
The lodge is generally described as clean, but there are mentions of a smoky smell in one of the bedrooms and issues with geese mess around the fishing lakes. The overall impression is that cleanliness is satisfactory, but there is room for improvement.
While the lodge is in a quiet location, there are reports of noise from fast cars and early morning disturbances from fishermen. The presence of geese has also impacted the fishing experience. The location has its charms but also some drawbacks that affect the tranquillity.
Guests have found the mattresses uncomfortable and the TV too small for their liking. The bedroom size could accommodate a larger bed, suggesting that comfort could be enhanced with some updates to the furnishings.
Facilities such as the hot tub are appreciated, but there are several complaints about the size of the TV, slow internet, and inadequate shower facilities. The fishing experience is also marred by matches and the condition of the lakes. Maintenance and upgrades are needed for a better experience.
There are no mentions of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness from the hosts. Without such references, it is not possible to assess this category.

We have been going to Faulkers Lakes for several years but found the standards have definitely worsened. We won't be revisiting
