Campion Lodge receives glowing praise for its luxurious, spacious, and immaculately clean accommodation set in a tranquil countryside location. Guests consistently highlight the peaceful setting, beautiful views, and excellent facilities, including a private hot tub. The lodge is well-equipped, dog-friendly, and features thoughtful touches such as welcome hampers, though these are not guaranteed. Minor negatives include occasional dog mess around the lake, flies, and a less comfortable bed for some. Overall, guests find it an ideal spot for a relaxing and memorable break.

Cleanliness is repeatedly praised, with guests describing the lodge as spotless, very clean, and well-maintained throughout.

The peaceful, scenic countryside location is a major highlight, offering beautiful views and direct access to walks, though a few mention the uphill walk to the lake and narrow pavements to local amenities.

Guests find the lodge spacious, cosy, and comfortable, with only rare mentions of a less comfortable bed. The tranquil setting and thoughtful interior design add to the comfort.

Facilities are highly rated, with guests enjoying the well-equipped kitchen, private hot tub, air conditioning, and spacious layout. Maintenance is also commended, with everything in good working order.

Many guests appreciate the generous welcome hampers and thoughtful touches such as dressing gowns and even a Christmas tree, though it should be noted that these gifts are not guaranteed for every stay.

    The lodge was spacious,well appointed and private.It was set in a really peaceful location and is a special place. The only issue is that walking around the lake was spoilt by dog owners who had not cleared up dog mess.It would be good to have a dedicated bin for this and a request included in the information pack that dog owners take responsibility for clearing up after their pets.
