“Comfortable lodge.”

The 2 twin bedrooms are small, however they are ok for a short stay. It would be useful to have a cloth for wiping down surfaces and some washing up liquid for individual items when not using the dishwasher, also oven gloves. Due to an oversight, towels hadn’t been provided, however the owner arranged for some to be sent over.

Fully enjoyed our 3 night break away could have done with a table outside for when sitting out with a drink but apart from that the lodge was very well equipped would highly recommend

“The lodge is clean, spacious and is in a very nice location.”

The view is fantastic and is accessible to shops. Great for families with children. It would be great if there was a holiday guide that told us about local tourist spots. Highly recommend.

“As a family this was our 2nd stay we loved the lodge can't fault the scenery, and the layout, plus comfort of the beds.”

However this time round we found was lacking on the cleanliness. Leftover mess under the sofa (understand somethings are missed), unstable dining chairs which had to be unused. Broken wireless headphone in oven which caused massive concern as oven was used that could have been a fire waiting to happen, luckily spotted before use, cob webs everywhere inside. I understand that it could be from previous people who stayed who miss treated the property but I imagined cleaners or the owner should have spotted these issues and rectified before another stay. But overall we still managed to have a great stay.

“The lodge was beautifully clean and comfortable and very well appointed.”

The site it’s on is really nice with the lodges looking over the lake. The lodge is close to the entrance so traffic noise from the main road can be heard.

“Beautiful lodge overlooking the lake.”

Only drawback you are next to a very busy road and roundabout. Great if you like watching traffic.

“When we arrived at the property, on the 15th December 2023 at 3pm, the first thing we noticed was how very cold it was inside the Lodge, there are no obvious things, ie room thermostat after we eventually found the central heating boiler, there are no instructions of what to do.”

I phoned Sykes cottages and spoke to a young lady explaining the situation she said she would contact the owner and get back to us. 1hour later no reply call from Sykes cottages it's getting really cold inside the Lodge, we had just driven 295 miles from Weymouth Dorset, we are tired 75 years old and cold. I phoned Sykes cottages again and was told that they were unable to contact the owner but would keep trying. That was the last conversation with Sykes cottages, then on either Monday or Tuesday 18/19 December Sykes cottages contacted us to ask how we had got on. Shame on Sykes cottages, no doubt that you will totally ignore this report, are simply pass the blame on to someone else. So that is our first and last experience with Sykes cottages. Mr G Marsden.

“Stayed in this amazing lodge in November was brilliant start to finish, 10/10 for cleanliness everything there to keep going if you dont want to adventure out but also plenty to do if you like to sight see.”

If you are a keen fisherman certainly worth the visit my partner likes to fish carp he got 8 out ranging from 11lb - 25lb. Excellent for all family's not just fishermen we loved it that much we've booked again for June.

“Had a fantastic stay the kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed plenty of storage in the bedrooms for clothing.”

The lodge was nicely decorated modern and spotlessly clean. We were lucky enough to have nice weather to sit out on the decking and enjoy the views. When we arrived we struggled to find the lodge so I would recommend more info on location for anyone visiting for the first time. We made some great family memories and would love to come back again thank you
