Guests have enjoyed the thoughtful touches like fresh eggs and ice cream. While some found the lodge and its facilities to be excellent, others noted areas in need of maintenance and cleaning.
Reviews are mixed regarding cleanliness. Some guests found the lodge clean and well-maintained, while others reported issues with cleanliness in the hot tub, pool, and lodge, including unclean shower trays and the need for a thorough cleaning in some areas.
The location is consistently praised for its beauty, with the lodge situated in a picturesque setting that guests find adds to the charm of their stay. The proximity to Bath and the natural surroundings are highlights.
Comfort levels are varied among guests. Some found the beds clean and fresh, while others experienced issues with broken furniture and uncomfortable seating arrangements, which impacted their overall comfort during the stay.
Facilities like the pool, hot tub, and games room are appreciated, but several guests reported maintenance issues such as broken chairs, a disintegrating pool cover, and a dishwasher in need of repair. The mix of positive and negative feedback suggests inconsistency in the upkeep of facilities.
Guests have mentioned thoughtful gestures such as champagne, flowers, and a well-equipped kitchen. However, it should be noted that such personal touches, while appreciated, may not be a standard offering for all visitors.

We throughly enjoyed our stay. Absolutely perfect for the kids, a little something for them all. Woods exploring games room swimming hot tub cinema room… pretty much everything you could want. Hosts were lovely, chatty and friendly - introduced our kids to their horses and let them feed them which was really special. Cabin was clean comfy and cosy, perfect for family game nights and something more relaxed. Balcony that looks over the river and the walks and scenery are to die for! Would and have already recommended.Thank you!

Absolutely fantastic holiday. The pool is bigger than the photos looked and was warm enough to enjoy, the games room and cinema room was stocked brilliant with lots of films and games to play. The dog paddock was lovely and my kids enjoyed the park. There is a private use hot tub on all of the lodges so that was lovely to see as i thought it was only a certain one. There are fresh eggs to buy which is a lovely touch and a little van selling ice creams/do ice creams etc. The only issue we really had was the dishwasher as it kept catching on the cupboard and wouldn't open properly. I was looking at reviews before we went and got a bit nervous as we were really looking forward to going. I messaged the owner who put my mind at ease. It was absolutely lovely. Wouldn't hesitate to go again

Unfortunately the lodge was tired and needed a lot of TLC. Rails were rotten and broken, outside chairs were broken, hot tub was dirty and needed a good clean, pool had algae in and had not appeared to be cleaned. There was rubbish around the pool that had been there the whole time were there so this proves the pool wasn’t checked. Pool cover was in an awful condition which was allegedly done historically by previous guests but it looks old and disintegrated. The pool was not covered over at night. I caught myself on brambles growing through the trellis as it was so long. I had to break it off. Top Dishwasher rack was stuck so we hand washed everything, oven needed a good clean, freezer needed defrosting, rail for shower was broken and came away from the wall. I took a photo as soon as we arrived sos not to be blamed. Dining chairs rickety and when used I had to remove a pen and tissue as this clearly hasn’t been checked. Shower tray had not been cleaned properly and soap scum was built up and evident when doors were open. Games room tired but seemed clean.Beds were clean and fresh I have photos with reference to the comments as proof. Area beautiful and added touches nice. We won’t be returning.
