Guests say

Lodge 24 in Lincolnshire offers a spacious and comfortable stay with a beautiful setting and a hot tub as a highlight. Guests appreciate the peaceful surroundings, the proximity to nature, and the well-appointed rooms. While some minor maintenance and cleanliness issues are noted, the overall experience is highly regarded, with many guests expressing a desire to return.

Guests have noted some cleanliness issues, including marks on walls, a scummy hot tub, and dusty areas. However, these appear to be isolated incidents, with several guests finding the lodge clean and well-presented upon arrival.

The lodge's location is praised for its idyllic setting and tranquillity, with proximity to Lincoln and nature parks. However, one guest noted a misleading description regarding the distance to local amenities.

The lodge is generally found to be comfortable, with underfloor heating and spacious rooms. Some guests mentioned the need for more seating and larger beds to accommodate all guests comfortably.

Facilities such as the hot tub and kitchen are well-received, though some guests encountered issues with heating, appliance operation, and a lack of certain kitchen items. Maintenance responsiveness is mixed.

While guests have mentioned a welcome bottle of Prosecco, there is not enough information to assess the consistency of thoughtful gestures across all stays. Therefore, it is politely noted that such gifts are not guaranteed.

    This was by far one of the nicest lodges we’ve stayed in so far and would definitely stay again. If I could recommend any changes to improve it they I would be a shower in the upstairs bathroom, a bigger bed in the balcony bedroom, a lock on the downstairs bathroom and a door installed to block off the living room to the downstairs bedrooms to keep the noise out.

    Was as described in the listing, modern with all facilities. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We only encountered a couple of minor issues: 1) Heating upstairs - Radiators depsperately need bleeding as only the very bottom gets warm. Not ideal when is cold and windy. 2) Plug got stuck in the bath upstairs and we were unable to drain the water, leaving us unable to use the bath/shower upstairs. We would not let this affect anything to do with our break as we still had a great time and would recommend this lodge to all our friends.

    The reason for low scoring on cleanliness was due to us finding dirty plates, mugs, cutlery and saucepans. The plates had food on them the mugs were stained and two had large cracks going down the side. The saucepans were black obviously been burnt whilst cooking and needed replacing. I feel from a health perspective this was not satisfactory and was not happy to have to put everything in the dishwasher before it could be used. This is not a good start to a holiday. I am assuming we pay for a cleaner within price of the holiday and this should be something they check! The helpline was a waste of time it took 4 days for someone to message back. Promised a number to call ....there was no number! Such a shame as the lodge, location/hot tub were fab. Would recommend just hope cleaning has been completed for you on your arrival.
