You needed a 4x4 to travel up the drive my car bottomed out several times with the potholes. Outside lights not working couldnât see a thing, slippery decking slope couldnât see key safe ridiculous. First initial impressions when entering were very positive, nice space and well laid out.and a welcome food pack Then⦠handle on the kitchen cupboard fell off, I noticed the floor kick board was kicked in. So the en-suite bathroom, the toilet was dirty,, I mean black stains and residue on the toilet seat, there was mould all over shower tray, water would not drain and after inspection found full of hair, shower glass filthy, shower extractor fan seemed poor under inspection clogged with dust. Main bathroom, the bath panel was kicked in, skirting rotted with damp, chrome filthy. Bedroom 3 with two singles, we used a cot, but both beds had broken slats so fell through when sat on them to dress the baby. I have phots of all this. Asked owner for assistance with outside lighting as it was dangerous his comment still on my phone was, âwe had the opposite our lights on all nightâ,not what I wanted to hear. He came round and asked if all good with the property, it was New Yearâs Eve and rather than cause a scene as I was so angry and upset and not in the best of moods and my partner didnât want me to have a confrontation with him so I said all Ok, I wish I had shown him round Iâm sure he would not have believed his eyes. Contacted Sykes sent them the photos, thought there might be compensation, a written apology. What a jokeâ¦â¦â¦ i

The lodge itself is in a lovely quiet spot and open plan living is perfect for a group on 6, the only criticism I have is that it's only 2 years old and some of the facilities are already showing signs of over use, for example the sofa and the shower in the main bedroom. Hope that helps
