Valley Lodge 44

We love the property.

It’s comfortable and clean. The only issue we had was the showers. The en-suite was either too hot or too cold, there was no in between and the shower cubicle in the main bathroom, there was no doors didn’t close prop so water was spilling through onto the floor. The water was also pouring out of the back of the shower head. I did report and I git a message saying it would be fixed the next day. It wasn’t and I wasn’t going to spend my holiday chasing maintenance. Apart from that we had a lovely time. Thankyou

Beautiful lodge and lovely park!

We enjoyed all the facilities there were in site. Staff were so lovely and kind we had a fantastic holiday with our 1year old and 2 big big dogs. Dogs were all on lead which made our lives easier and holiday less stressful.lovely little stream for them to paddle in which was a bonus! Lodge flooring was light colour and carpet making it very difficult with dogs. Not exactly how a dog friendly accommodation usually is. Was hard to maintain. We unfortunately couldn’t sleep in the main bed as it was broken and not comfort at all. Single beds were comfortable. Travel cot they have in the lodge is broken unfortunately so we didn’t feel safe to have our baby in there so he squeezed in with us no problem. High chair was there on arrival which was great! Not hard to find the property. Lovely quite site with big balcony and stunning views. Great value property. Could do with a little update but for us we had a beautiful stay and we would look at booking again!!

Offered good value for money.

Fantastic location and views. However the lodge is looking tired but with a little TLC could be an outstanding lodge. There was a musty smell in the main bedroom (after googling a bowl of baking powder, opening door and air freshener got rid of it after 3 days!). The cookers performance was not up to standard hob either very low or very high. Oven took twice as long to cook food. Rugs were a hazard. Shower doors did not fit water leaked out into shower room (I reported this to maintenance on day 1 no response). Headboard in main bedroom stained. Balcony needed cleaning full of cobwebs and leaves. Carpets needed cleaning suggest putting in wooden flooring. Lots of scuff marks. However fantastic location and views.

The lodge is very well equipped however requires some me TLC the smoke alarm was beeping on entering the property and the bath panel is hanging off in the bathroom I called the number provided and left a message for someone to call me back or pop along and sort and nobody contacted me we had to take the smoke alarm down also the property was freezing cold as the heating was off and it took ages to warm up perhaps putting the heating on in readiness for guests would be helpful, there is no welcome pack with instructions on how to use things this made it difficult when trying to find how to use the heating, we couldn’t get the TV to work apart from 1 channel this was probably down to the weather, these were only small issues they didn’t detract from the enjoyment of our stay - I always book with Sykes and will continue to do so, but attention to detail is required

We had the loveliest new years stay!

Was cosy and warm and had everything we needed. Thank you!! We would certainly return.

We stayed here over Christmas and we have had the best Christmas in a long time, it was our first Christmas away from home and valley lodge 44 was like home from home, it has everything you need and more, the beds are comfy the living area is spacious, really could not recommend this place enough.

Kids say they liked the views, they liked the cute decorations and pictures, it was comfy, Netflix worked, they liked the pool and used it everyday.

They didn't like the fan in the bathroom going off for ages, there was something spilt on the wall in their room and one bed felt wet. Bedrooms felt a little damp. Couldn't find the instruction booklet for washer/dryer. Shower room toilet cistern water continues if flushed intermittently. Lounge rug was rucked so we lifted the anti-slip net which seemed to be the issue. Apart from these minor issues we very much enjoyed our stay.

The property was well equipped and clean.

We felt very comfortable during our stay. The surroundings with the use of the balcony were also very pleasing.

What a lovely lodge, it was very warm.

The shower over bath was either extremely hot or extremely cold so just used the other shower which was great. There was no toilet roll holders in either bathrooms but pictured. I would suggest a dark rug by front door especially as grass was strimmed 3 days we were there and left around lodge. Pool was clean, not very deep though. Staff friendly on site. Overall good lodge for 3 star stay.

Holiday property was fairly cleaned unfortunately the wifi didn't work but wasn't a major problem .

Lots of leave on the balcony can do with a bit of sweeping. Overall we were satisfied with our holiday accommodation...however the shared swimming pool was a disaster which ruined our holiday. There was a large punjabi family of 15 running wild in the pool and staff sitting there didn't intervene and all swimmers had to leave because of them. No one rinsed themselves before entering the pool which wasn't hygienic.

The lodge was exactly what we needed for our week away - shame the weather wasn’t the best but it didn’t dampen our spirits

Place was nice but need a lot of improvement such as: -Upgraded boiler which doesn’t finish hot water after 2 people shower.

This was a huge problem with 6 people living there. -bedroom opposite/Next-door the double room had a leak from the top of the window coming into the bedroom. Had to use a towel so it doesn’t wet the floor or bed. The bathrooms were quite dirty, lifting toilet lid had dirty stain. Bed linen was as dirty double bedroom linen had yellow stains and the bedroom next door, on one of the beds had a massive yellow stain on the mattress which showed through the bed sheets. -duvets are quite old needs new. - place is quite dusty had to dust when arrived due to children. - tv was not working, kept freezing and glitching. Would suggest to put Sky or something with channels that work. Plates and utensils some was dirty that we had to re wash them. -bedroom near main entrance ceiling would move when someone would be walking upstairs. -Mattresses was quite uncomfortable -brai stand was very dirty had wet tissue and disgusting things inside showing it hadn’t been cleaned at all. Would be ideal to put them inside in a rainy season than leave them outside.

The property was lovely, a home from home.

A real gem. The only thing I would say is the check out time of 9am is a little early, especially as we are asked to strip beds ect, the holiday ends with a busy early morning.

We come to Cornwall every year and this was one of the best stays we've had.

The cottage was fantastic. Lovely layout with all the home comforts and beautiful surroundings. We would definitely come back!

We stayed for a week in valley lodge 44 and it was perfect!

On arriving to the property it was completely spotless. The lodge is well presented, the carpets look brand new and it has been well maintained with what look like quite a fresh coating of paint. It was also equipped with everything you would need for a stay. The lodge is located perfectly, even though many families can be seen on the site, the site is very quiet and peaceful. Overall, the lodge was 10 out of 10, spotless, well maintained and looked after property in a perfect location

Parking spaces was an issue, trying to find a spot to park.

Generally very good but Cleanliness let it down sheets felt damp, and the whole lower floor smelled damp, mould in the bathrooms as the extractors weren't working, the balcony was full of spiders webs and generally very dirty, the heating/water were very good, it's a shame really, because with a bit of TLC lodge 44 could be a really nice place to stay

The property would benefit from some bathroom updating, and repairs including power washing decking, new toilet seat and bath panel.

Friendly and helpful staff at reception, bar and poolside.

Great quiet break post lockdown with the children and dog.

Accommodation wasn’t as clean as it should have been and there was no view over the valley as the trees had grown to tall.

Also the accommodation is on a very steep hill and quite a walk from where you have to park to the accommodation with all your luggage.. not possible to park outside to unload on this specific accommodation as the hill is too steep

An excellent holiday in every way.

Well done.Will definitely see you again !

We had a wonderful week in lodge 44, the accommodation was very well equipped and comfortable.

We used the swimming pool, teenagers loved this. Unfortunately we could not use the games room. We made use of the outside areas by playing rounders. The site was lovely, the restaurant food was really good. We did some many activities nearby, aqua park, water park, zip line and lots more. Overall we had a fantastic family week away. Would highly recommend and happily return.

The lodge itself is spacious and very well equipped, with lots of added extras, however, it smelt very very damp downstairs.

The smell hit you as soon as you opened the front door. Also, I feel, the description of access is very misleading. There isn't any vehicular access to the property and to get to the lodge from the car parking you have to walk quite a distance, including up some steps (which for my Dad who has knee issues was quite difficult and caused him great pain). Obviously if we had know how difficult the access was we wouldn't have booked that particular property.

We thought beds were very hard both of us have suffered bad backs.

The bedrooms downstairs were very musty and cold we had to use central heating in august in morning and evening. The DVD player did not work, and fridge had seen better days broken shelves.

The cottage was just what we wanted and expected It was equipped with everything we needed and very comfortable The site was lovely and we especially enjoyed the swimming pools We highly recommend this property

Yes the tv didn't work.

It was reported but unfortunately it wasn't fixed during our time there. Although the site was lovely it was very steep and parking was at the bottom of the hill.i wish I had been aware before we booked! The pub was lovely and the meal we had very tasty. My grandchildren enjoyed being able to have have a wander safely. We had a good time and it was relaxing.

Disappointed with overall cleaniness.

TV / DVD wasn't working but maintenance came up with a replacement. However this should have been dealt with before our arrival since the owner was aware of the problem. Silly things like no batteries in the kitchen clock, overflow on shower WC needed attention, two socket points didn't work and upon arrival the lodge smelt musky

My wife and I needed to spend a few days on the Cornwall/Devon border.

The lodge is located in a forested area and is very quite and peaceful. We were surprised to find the lodge had everything we needed from toothpicks to a welcome packet of biscuits. There is also an onsite pub which also serves good quality food

We had a fabulous time away, the lodge was cosy and comfortable and as described.

The lodge was also very well equipped, a home from home.

Such a beautiful lodge.

It was like home from home. The one thing it could do with would be a washer dryer but apart from that it was great.

We had an excellent week and 44 Valley Lodge was everything we could have hoped for.

I would suggest that directions should be given to Gunnislake which is much closer than Callington which is some way away. The surrounding area provides plenty to see and do for all ages and I would thoroughly recommend it.

Lovely place to relax.

Quiet, peaceful with great views. Restuarant serves good food at reasonable prices and good service. Swimming pools fab. Close to lots of interesting attractions. There is a shop on site but it's only 5 minutes away from major supermarkets. Facilities within the lodge were excellent, tea, coffee and sugar were there, on our arrival, for a welcome drink. Plenty of crockery, cutlery and cooking items available. We really enjoyed our stay and would love to return in the future.

Just the sofas that were well worn and uncomfortable with springs sticking up inside the cushions.

Everything else perfect, a well equipped lovely lodge with lots of nice touches. Great site and peaceful setting.

The villa was a bit tired and needs an upgrade.

Disappointed that there was no dishwasher and the showers were just about ok. This was too overpriced even for half term. More ideas of what to do would have been useful. Parking was tricky at times. Double bed rock hard and sheets uncomfortable. However, it just met our expectation as it was clean and presented well overall. We had a relaxing week despite the poor weather.

It would of been good to have had free WiFi.

Also to be told where the parking was as we guessed that it was one of the nearest parking areas as you pass the property. To have had a hot tub would of been amazing as I saw others that had them, and if I was to book again I would look at the cost with one of these included. Otherwise everything else was great.

Holiday Lodge was great value for money and perfect location for exploring the border areas between Devon and Cornwall.

Lodge had everything required for our family holiday and a good selection of DVD's and games for use.

It was in a lovely location, well equipped.

Perfect for a family of five plus Grandad and a dog.
