No booklet to give you any help on the area and instructions for example,on how to use gas oven etc.Misrepresentation of the property, no gas fire as in the description of property and completely different look to the photos, ie furniture 2 chairs which couldnât see the Tv at all.. Very noisy with passing traffic, not sure about a holiday park? Most seemed permanent and went to work obviously causing noise in a morning. Dirty stained plastic dishes in cupboard. This is not a lodge, it is a caravan,we booked through Sykes last year at Egton near Whitby and that was a superb lodge, what a let down this has been at Pentney lakes

.... apart from the occasional water skier that is but this adds to the feeling of being on holiday. I would however suggest that any mention of 6 people should be omitted. Even 4 adults may find it a bit cramped but this is a suggestion only and does not detract from the overall enjoyment to be had.

Very bright and clean and comfortable. It had everything we needed to have a relaxed holiday. A nice mixture of people around and a good healthy atmosphere.
