Callow Lodge 22

The property is beautiful, however recommendations going forward to improve my feedback would be: 1.

New comfy sofas needed 2. New master bed/pillows need improving as not particularly comfortable 3. Some hooks for coats in the hall and simple shoe storage 4. Shelf in shower for toiletries / over door hooks in bathroom/en-suite 5. Some sort of roof cover over the hot tub (sliding for 6. Some maintenance work needed by carpark / pathway as this was flooding due to rain - we had to jump it, an older person couldn’t have managed this.

Beautiful lodge, had everything for a home away from home, the site is immaculate, helpful staff and the fishing was good, already recommended to friends and they have booked.

Will definitely book again.

This was idyllic, I could happily have lived there full time.

The lodge was very well equipped and very comfortable. The site was very clean and so peaceful. When we did have contact with anyone, everyone was very friendly and helpful. We came back very rested.

Property was lovely although the bed was hard and did not get a good sleep.

The cleaning is expected of the guest upon departure and the toilets were not satisfactorily clean. The site was lovely and on-site restaurant was very nice and also friendly. We were questioned regarding our ‘big’ dog as apparently they only allow ‘small’ dogs. This is not in the booking information, as far as we were concerned we booked a dog friendly lodge. We had a lovely stay.

We really enjoyed our stay at callow lodge.

The grounds of the park were peaceful and very well kept. We particularly enjoyed watching the ducks and other birds in and around the lakes. The accommodation itself was clean and spacious and it was great to be able to relax in the hot tub of an evening time. The pool and steam room are a little dated but well priced and usable. The croft restaurant on site was excellent. We would thoroughly recommend staying here if you want a peaceful and relaxing stay in the Shropshire countryside.

Friendly, efficient down to earth staff.

Lodge immaculate and well equipped, well kept grounds. Food at the on site restaurant ' The Croft' was excellent. Exercise paddock to let your dogs have a run. Site is secure at night, your provided with fob to allow you back on site and is permanently locked between 12 and 6am. Vacating time is 9am and found (like 3 others) that the reception was closed so we all posted our keys through the letter box, hope this was ok?

Thanks for your help at short notice

Well run facility and helpful people, will go back.

The only disappointment was regarding The Croft.

We were not able to book a table on the Wednesday as they were fully booked. It would have been good to have been advised to book as s

Absolutely loved it, it was peaceful and relaxing!

Will be returning for sure. Thanks to everyone for their incredible hospitality

The check in and out times on your listing (3pm check in) were different to the holiday site ones (4pm), then our check in times were again altered due to the current situation!

This was only brought to our attention the day before we traveled during a call to the holiday site. Also on the listing you stated the lodge had WIFI, you failed to note that it was only in the small reception/café area which has limited access. This was annoying as we had taken items that need WIFI. The holiday site was peaceful and well maintained and we were very happy with the lodge. The on site restaurant served lovely food and would highly recommend a visit. The sofas in the lodge weren't the most comfortable to relax on but everything else was good. would visit again and recommend the holiday site. Had a peaceful relaxing holiday

Met with great welcoming touches such as the heating being on and the flame effect electric fire display glowing.

Very welcoming. Great place to stay.

The hot tub was not clean felt greasy and very stained Towels I feel should not last one week The cabin was lovely

It would be helpful to have some coat hooks!

There was nowhere to leave wet coats. Beautiful holiday Park, lodge well equipped although sofa a little uncomfortable. Very nice welcome pack!

Just to many rules on site

Enjoyed all aspects of the holiday, will be going back.

Really lovely place and staff are super friendly and helpful.

The kitchen has everything you could want and is very clean as is the rest of the lodge on the whole.

I did have to ask for the hot tub to be cleaned as it had algae floating in it when we got there and green slime on the sides. After emptying and cleaning it was fine. One of our beds had no sheets so we had to spend first night with an unmade bed. This was quickly resolved when we told them the next day. The furniture is the most uncomfortable ever. The beds aren't comfortable at all and the sofas are impossible to get comfy on. I didn't watch tv in the bedroom as the remote was too grimy to want to touch. The lack of wifi in the lodge was a big problem to us. Anyone needing wifi should avoid this place. There is very little to do in the area which may suit some people but made our week tedious and boring. On the bright side, the ducks are a delight. We bought seed for them and enjoyed feeding them every day.

Poor site management very bad attitude would not return and the onsite restaurant is overpriced and over rated couldn’t cook an egg correctly

Everything was top standard here.

There was no washing machine in the cabin and I used the laundry room , especially the spin drier for swimming costumes. This room was well equipped. The restaurant was open for 4 nights, Thurs to Sunday lunchtime. We ate there twice and the food was fine but not cheap. So peaceful,just to wander around the two ponds/lakes watching the ducklings and carp. Tesco and Lidl are close with the Park and Ride into Shrewsbury which we used. There is an hourly boat trip round the loop which is pleasant. For walkers Hawkshead Follies is only 6 miles away.Well worth a visit. Delightful area of the country.
