   "Unfortunately the owners are rather economical with the truth when they say that the property is 'on a road'. Not only is it a very fast road used as a short cut and with a speed limit of 60mph but the bedrooms are in effect around 12 ft from it. The road is also in bad repair and has quite a camber on it which means vehicles tend to use the centre more, with wheels going over the cats eyes thus making more noise. the traffic from 6am and late at night means that it is almost impossible to get any sleep. They also state that the railway line is half a mile away, it is much much closer. by car going round the road way it is only 3/10 of a mile away and it is directly across an open field so i would estimate that, as the crow flies, it is less than 500yards away. Not only this, it is the main 'Great Northern' line and has trains, bothe diesel and electric, going at high speed constantly. Then at night the line is used by goods trains, very noisy and very long.A few other niggles, The light in the double room takes a good five to ten minutes to be bright enough to see by, also a net curtain in that room would be desirable as it looks out directly on to the owners property windows. The decking is nice but needs a gate at the entrance and a closure at the other end otherwise it is completely insecure if you have children or, like us, a dog.I am unsure as to the reason for a wet room because the property is definitely not suitable for anyone with a disability, a shower cubicle would be far better. there was no wardrobe storage in the twin room. the built in fridge was the noisiest i have ever heard, we had to turn it down to stop it running constantly. Just after we arrived, the owner came in and introduced herself, she said she liked to "show guests around the cooker"! As it turned out the cooker was awful, the hob was ceramic and had touch controls which only worked occasionally, myself, my husband and our visiting son all tried and managed once in a dozen tries to make it work. The hob is also very badly chipped on one side meaning that if you are not careful you could sustain a nasty cut when wiping down the worktop.Sadly, the noise problem was the worst thing, it really spoiled the holiday and, due to lack of sleep, i ended up with a migraine, not very good when you are on holiday."

   "We had a lovely weeks break in this Lodge. It is exceptionally clean and tidy and, as my husband is disabled, it had ample room for him to move about in without any worries. The bathroom was exactly what you would require for someone with restricted mobility. It is a bit tight getting the car in from the road, but nothing an experienced driver would have a problem with. The grass at the back was mowed the day after we arrived, which was a great help. Pack wellies though because of the wildlife using this area too and it's a little uneven under foot. The road and rail noise didn't trouble us particularly and the view at the back from the lounge/kitchen area is lovely. We saw Muntjac and Roe deer daily, the occasional rabbit and to see the cows mooching about in the field beyond is very calming and peaceful. There were about 12 cows in all, male, female and a couple of youngsters and it was lovely to see them just getting on with their routine.We had our dog with us, who I did keep on her extending lead in the back garden, purely because she is just a youngster and wants to explore everything. We found a lovely place for her morning walks at Great Fen, nearby, where she was off the lead and loved it. It takes just over an hour to do the complete circuit.Well worth a visit, whether you have dogs or children or neither, is Ferry Meadows country park near Peterborough. Only a short drive and parking starts at £1.50 for the first hour and half. Lovely walks there, it's a very calm and tranquil place with a great big lake and lovely cafe doing all sorts of goodies."

   "This house was lovely but we did not find it met the description on the website. The wording suggests separate reception rooms which was not the case. We like a separate room for game playing from TV watching but this was not possible. Also the house was slightly disappointing in terms of supplies and equipment. I have never been anywhere before (and we have hired big holiday houses for 12 years every Easter) where there was so little provided in terms of basic requirements for instance there were no spare toilet rolls (and most there were almost used up), washing up cloths, washing up liquid, a small number of dishwasher tablets, black bin liners etc that make the start of a stay so much easier. For a Luxury Collection house this was disappointing, not even a small pint of milk to go with the tea bags etc. The towels were also small. However it was spotlessly clean and the caretaker was very prompt in providing a key for the summer house. All the children loved the garden."

   "We spent a wonderful week in S20549. Very impressed by all the equipment provided (kitchen equipment, games, books, DVDs, electric blankets, hot water bottles, night lights and coins for the electric meter). It was lovely to arrive to a welcome tray, milk in the fridge and fresh flowers. The location of the lodge within the holiday park is ideal - close to the pool and games room, not over-looked at all and with streams and space just outside. The children loved it!The holiday park was larger than expected, with maybe 100 or more holiday homes, but it was very quiet and we only really saw other people in the pool which is bigger than we expected). Though one morning we had the pool entirely to ourselves! We used the lodge as a lovely base for exploring Dartmoor and east Cornwall and were lucky to have lovely sunny weather most days. Would love to come back!"

   "We had a fabulous week at S17970 and were lucky to be able to take advantage of the outdoor facilities as the weather was brilliant, for the time of year.We had just a few teething issues - the ovens were so well used that markings had been rubbed off, but we managed, through trial and error, to sort out what we needed. (We understand they are due to be replaced shortly.) A flood from the bath shower added to the excitement, but was attended to, very quickly, by Phil, who maintains the house, following an emergency phone call.I was interested to note that where any previous reviews had suggested items that would be useful in the house, they had all been purchased - it is good to know that notice is taken. Our suggestion would be for a second kettle! (We took an extra with us...)The house was beautifully clean throughout, and extremely comfortable and spacious."
