  • "No smart tv not connected to the wifi, the outside disgusting dead leaves everywhere not even a brush to sweep up ourselves,the couches were very uncomfortable and dated."

    Needs a makeover inside and out . To be listed as a 5 berth is ridicules. Yes 5 beds but you wouldnt sit 5 people on a night overal disappointed. The site itself was very nice.

    Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear of the issues that you experienced during your stay. We would like to add that had we been made aware, we would have attended to resolve some of the issues. We do find that sofas are down to personal preference. We take comments on board. Thank you The Lake District Lodge Holidays Owner Relations Team Property Owner

  • "The property was more dated than expected."

    T V remote did not work and was also warped screen. Dishwasher did not work. Called Syke cottages and was told owner aware. However nothing done to address issues. I find this poor given the price.

    Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry that you did not enjoy your experience, and we will feed your comments back to the relevant teams. Thank you The Lake District Lodge Holidays Owner Relations Team Property Owner

  • "The lodge gave the impression of very basic box ticking, without much deeper thought."

    . for example, the knives & forks are plastic/metal so under normal pressure they bend making them unusable. The water pressure struggles, the main bedroom has a sleeping position with the hot tub within 3 feet and the boiler within 2, so noise is constant throughout the night (think van engine). Similarly with the white detectors, flashing a bright white light every 30 seconds throughout the night, its tortuous & requires eye masks. Also WiFi not included but the lodge has 3 routers dotted about, clearly available but not offered.. parkdean wifi kept kicking us off. All in all, very grateful & we managed, had a lovely break but not likely to be back. The lodge needs some attention on the small touches, like a welcome pack about the facilities & hot tub etc.. how to minimise noise etc, dont run water when someone is in the shower etc. & new cutlery.. kitchen door handles need a good clean, there's lumpy residue on some of them.

    Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We take all comments on board, and we will pass them on to the relevant teams to ensure that our high standards continue to be met. Thank you- The Lake District Lodge Holidays Owner Relations Team Property Owner

    Unfortunately we ended up cleaning the tables and Decking area on arrivalas this wasn't done prior. There was no welcome package, which we found disappointing also the cutlery was much to be desired with blunt knifes and burnt pans.

  • "Lovely site and lovely lodge."

    Everything was clean on arrival, although had to hunt for a brush to clear the decking of debris (from overhead trees). The hot tub was great and ready to use immediately. All the staff were friendly and helpful. Just little pointers could have done with maybe a few essentials salt pepper, washing up liquid, but everything else was great. Would definitely stay again

  • "Warm lodge with plenty hot water for showers etc."

    Hot tub was great addition however if you don’t plan to use turn it off as noisy operation 24 hrs a day. Lodge needs major maintenance, shower tray cracked, door frames rotten, dining seating dirty and foam flat, wardrobe door hinge requires fixing. Bathroom extraction fan inoperable may account for mould on wall. Decking slippy and requires cleaning. More of a site issue, trees need cutting back to allow parking. Disappointed overall as not what I would have expected being rated as 4 star.

    Unfortunately we had a power cut on our first night though, the light above the hot tub isn’t working either so with it being winter and getting dark early this wasn’t good as you need a light really. You also need either a pair of scissors or a pizza cutter. Thanks!

    Lodge really needs some maintenance, sofas need a good clean, cutlery desperately needs replacing as do the dining chairs, one of the chair legs is hanging off and is dangerous.

    The location was fine but the cabin could do with updating, the toaster did not work, the fridge freezer was small and no compartments on the inside front door, only 2 chairs provided outside which had not been cleaned, the overhang from the trees needs cutting back and it would have helped if fly screens were fitted to the patio doors as the lodge gets flooded with midges/mossies etc
