Guests that stayed at this property said

Reviewers frequently mention the cleanliness of the lodges, describing them as 'lovely and clean' with well-maintained hot tubs, indicating a high standard of hygiene and upkeep.

The location is highly praised for its beautiful surroundings and peaceful atmosphere, with outstanding views being a recurring compliment. Its proximity to local amenities like Tesco and Lidl is also appreciated.

Comfort is a strong point, with guests finding the lodges well-furnished and equipped with conveniences such as dressing gowns and toiletries. The presence of a hot tub and bath adds to the overall comfort.

Facilities like the swimming pool and hot tub are well-received, though there was a minor gripe about the booking system for the pool. The lodges are equipped with everything needed for a pleasant stay.

While guests mention thoughtful touches like dressing gowns and a Christmas tree, there is not enough consistent information about gifts or special attention to detail to accurately score this category.

    We absolutely loved our stay at Swandown, we stayed in lodge number 9 which had the most amazing views. We got very lucky with the weather it was so warm, it was really nice to be able to relax outside in the jacuzzi. I do miss the Jacuzzi now I’m home. Everywhere was really clean and everything as they show it in the photos. You’re really close to a Tesco and Lidl so it’s really convenient for the weekly shop. I really enjoyed the swimming pool on the site as you can book it and you can get the pool to yourselves for 40 minutes which was so nice. It really was so peaceful there and I would definitely consider going back. Thank you so much for our wonderful stay, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone who is thinking about going
