We specifically booked a lodge with a dishwasher as it was Christmas, the dish washer was rubbish and worked once the week we were there. There is no cupboard space, we had 1 skinny cupboard that we could use. The kitchen isnât thought through very well. The water supply was rubbish, the showers trickled and were luke warm. We tried showering at different times (as there was 2 showers) but this changed nothing. We would also suggest purchasing a rug for your living area as you are dog friendly however the flooring throughout is very shiny so quite slippery for our lab. We had to use fleeces as rugs for him. The hot tub was amazing which made up for it for us. The park was so quiet so was a lovely break for us all, just definitely a few things for the host to update weâd say.

We ended up putting disinfectant down all drains and keeping the fan on. As discussed the hot tub hadn't been cleaned on arrival. We were highly disappointed with this,especially as we have stayed at other accommodation and understand they should be emptied and refilled for all new occupants, which this hadn't. The accommodation was OK, think it needs some TLC. Feel gutted as I have never given poor feedback before.
