What our customers say about their holidays

  The parkdean resort was amazing.

  The location, facilities and entertainment were great for a family holiday. We ate on site a couple of time and used the passes to access the pool and clubhouse I. The evening and both adults and children enjoyed it thoroughly. However, the caravan was not uo to the same standard as we expected from such a great site. The interior was dated, there were lots of unnecessary items in the caravan that couldn't be used such as lamps situated where there were no plug sockets. There was a lack of plug in general which meant that you couldn't watch TV at the same time as having a lamp on. The kitchen was very basic. The grill wouldn't stay on and to use it, you would have to keep the gas knob pressed in. There was only one shelf in the oven, which meant that cooking for 5 people was tricky. From staying in other caravans there seemed a lack of storage space in bedrooms. We also couldn't seem to find any instructions on how the heating worked. When we arrived the shower was on and the bathroom floor was flooded, I believe there had been a problem with the water on site before we arrived so assumed that when the cleaners were in they forgot to turn off the shower. The light switch in the bathroom was also too short. This meant that 2 of the 3 children couldn't use the bathroom at night as they couldn't reach the pull cord. It was also very hard to shut the double bedroom door, which meant waking the children up eheb the adults went to bed. I think it would also be worth mentioning that, as you are surrounded by established trees that it is quite a common noise to hear acorns falling onto the roof. This wasn't a problem but 2 of the children were a bit scared of the noise on the first night.

  Vendee Lodge is a really lovely comfortable modern holiday lodge.

  It is Tastefully put together & is well equipped with most things you might want in the kitchen. The seating was cosy & comfortable. TV easy to use. The bed room was lovely & fairly spacious, bigger than I had expected. Jayne the owner checked in with us on our arrival evening to see if everything was ok for us & arranged for clean linen & towels for our second week. Which we appreciated. Not something that we have had at any other accommodation when we have stayed for two weeks. Thank you Jayne. The view from the patio window & the seating area was a real treat. Stunning views across the countryside. We loved our stay on the Isle of Wight & in the beautiful Vendee Lodge. I would thoroughly recommend a stay here. It was our first stay in a lodge & we enjoyed it very much. I would certainly go again.

  I am partly dissabled so my comments are based on this.

  1. I had to park next to the property because of my health problems but found it difficult to do so. 2. The property has a massive, huge, Acorn tree over it, and the acorns were dropping onto the roof every night which kept me awake. 3. The seating was tidy and clean, but not very comfortable at all, there was not one comfortable chair in there. 4. The heating was not very high , as most of the week it was very cold and could'nt work out how to adjust it. 5. I feel that Sykes have not explained the surrounding area enough, Because it was so hilly, I had a job to get about, so did'nt walk anywhere. I don't think its catered for the elderly enough. I left a day early as did'nt want another cold night. Thank you

  During our stay there was a major problem with the boiler leaving us without heating or hot water for quite a long time.

  The owner did eventually get an engineer out to look at it but not until Thursday morning, we’d been there since Monday. There was also an issue that there was no information pack in the caravan so we had no way of knowing who to contact. There was an ‘owner’ number on the app but this number took you to the cleaner who was very surprised to hear that her number was being given out!! There was also an issue that the kitchen sink didn’t have either a plug or a washing up bowl so we had to go out and buy one before we could do any washing up!! Once these issues had been sorted the caravan was quite comfortable and was in a good position to explore the Island.

  We booked in July 2023 for July 2024.

  My husband had 3 strokes, February,March and June 2024. I debated cancelling. I so glad I didn’t. It was amazing. The property had everything we needed. Sitting on the decking with my husband in the sunshine was the best medicine ever. As you can imagine we spent every day at the property and wanted for nothing. Our little dog Mylo loved going on the decking and have a nosey at the neighbours and sun bathing. The property is beautiful, well equipped. Very very clean. If I get the chance I would love to return one day. Thank you Jayne we had an amazing 2 week stay. Made some new memories with my hubby.
