The Lodge was clean but tired.The sofas were sagging and smelt musty. The smart tv never worked as just kept saying conect aerial. Not all jets worked on the hot tub which could do with a cover as twigs and leaves fell in it while i was sat in it. The bbq is unhygienic as the grill is not only dirty but rusty. small problems included bathroom door handle sticking. The oven was dirty. Vanity light not working in twin bedroom.
