Fantastic a must for everyone

We stayed in the Ruskin 2 lodge. Great location and nice cozy lodge. Good size for the two of us and our dog (we were getting away from the fireworks) nice and clean. nice to have an enclosed decking with a gate but the gate needs adjusting as it has dropped. Just a couple of niggles. The front door wouldn't shut unless you slammed it shut because it got stuck. It needs a new lock as it was extremely difficult to get the key into the lock.I'm nit picking here but no kitchen paper and the kettle was disgusting inside. Not all the rings on the cooker worked either and the living room door wouldn't close properly
