  A lovely peaceful location convenient for local towns and beautiful walks.

  The outlook from the cabin is lovely, surrounded by trees but only a short walk to the marina and the reception area. Everything is provided that you need which is great. Cannot fault the overall superficial cleanliness but the sofa appeared grubby, probably given the material and inability to deep clean between visitors. There are parts that appear tired and there are some marks and stains around. The number of air freshener devices caused problems for me. A plug in device in each room and 3 vases in the lounge was overpowering from the minute we opened the door. The bed was ridiculously uncomfortable as there was wood between the base and mattress and what little sleep you do get is interrupted by the hot tub noise throughout the night right outside the window. This would be the same in one of the twin rooms. The hot tub could be a lovely addition however it quickly cools and the fast jets seem to add cold water, which is not particularly beneficial at the end of the day. Given the amount we paid and the facilities and experience we have had in other lodges on this site and at other locations we feel this was a very overpriced break and to be honest we have arrived home feeling disappointed.

  In general the lodge was very clean and had everything you could want for a lovely stay.

  Unfortunatly though the main bedroom mattress was incredibly uncomfortable, me and my wife hardly got any sleep. We tried to flip the mattress and rotate to find a comfort spot but the mattress is soo old, lumpy, worn and past its time, it needs to be replaced. I did notice a review about this mattress quite some time ago so would of expected it to be replaced but clearly not. Having said that my daughter slept very well in her bed and the rest of the lodge was fantastic. Another note is the pool on site, if you book through sykes and not park Dean themselves you don't get the opportunity to book for swimming and have to rely on the limited walk in spaces available per session. This proved difficult, and something we haven't experienced on other sites. So my advice would be to check with the site themselves before booking to make sure you are aware how they run this so you don't get disappointed. All in all though had a lovely time away, the lodge is positioned in a really quite spot on the park, within easy walking distance to the hub and other facilities.

  Lovely lodge in a nice quiet location.

  Our dog loved watching the rabbits and hens playing near the pond, with the occasional red squirrel making a visit. The lodge was nice and clean. The kitchen was stocked with everything you'd need for self catering, more than usual for other lodges, which was a nice touch. We were welcomed with a couple of complementary drinks in the fridge. Only downside is there are what we think to be mice venturing into the roof or wall cavities. Every night between 11-3am we were woken up to loud scratching and gnawing noises in the ceiling above the bed. One night in particular it continued for about an hour, it sounded as if something was attempting to gnaw its way into the room, I had to resort to knocking the ceiling with the sweeping brush in the hopes of scaring it off, I even popped outside to to make sure there was nothing on the roof, whatever it is sounds determined to get in, as it kept coming back.

  Just back from a week's stay at 40 Skiptory Howe.

  I have to say that this is a lodge that the owners take great pride in an also ensure the best for their paying guests. Spotlessly clean, fully equipped even down to tea/coffee/sugar/torches/kitchen roll/tinfoil etc(no it doesn't have a dishwasher but that never bothers us!) A large fridge and freezer a bonus as some only have tiny ones. Even down to the lovely artworks on walls .. every detail has been thought of. Reading reviews prior to booking the bed was mentioned but we found it comfortable. Plug in air freshners were also mentioned..we just unplugged them so not a problem. Sofas grubby? No they are not. They are low but comfortable! Carpets are also nice! If I have to say anything 'wrong?!'.. we found the bathroom sink is very small so it's hard not to spill water having a face wash (that's all we can come up with

  Having stayed in a few lodge's this has to be the best by far.

  Such a beautiful lodge with very high attention to detail taken with the cleaning before we arrived. The lodge smelt extremely clean with a care package of essential cleaning supplies left in the lodge was much appreciated. It was very well equipped with everything you needed for your stay. Situated on a beautiful plot very quiet with a secure balcony for the children to play safely away from and traffic. From 2 adults who suffer with bad backs we were amazed at the mattress in the master bedroom it was so supportive and maybe the best one we have ever slept on. The hot tub was wonderful and was checked twice a day by a hot tub company for our peace of mind and safety. The owners were lovely and friendly and always on hand to assist with and queries. Can not recommend highly enough we will be returning in the future.
