However, I feel itâs important to state the facts so other families in our situation are not left disappointed. We booked this holiday after searching through the Sykes filter for properties will pools. My sons love swimming, so the heated pool was a major factor alongside the wonderful countryside and beaches of North Wales. Unfortunately, on the evening of arrival we discovered the advertised âheatedâ outdoor pool was freezing cold and unfit to swim in for more than few minutes. We reported this to the park reception and was informed that the broken piping was on order, and they would fix it over the next few days. It was fixed on the day that we left. On reporting this to Sykes, we were informed that the parts were on order and 20 degrees was plenty warm enough to swim in. My shivering 7 and 9 year boys confirmed that it was not. When I tried to resolve this with Skyes I was reprimanded for charging my electric car at the lodge and informed it was a fire hazard. No where in the site rules or Skyes description was it made clear that electric cars cannot be charged on site. They even had a charge point behind reception. Access to the charge point was not offered as an alternative. We paid 3 times the normal fee to book this property in the school holidays. I would expect all the facilities to be available and in good working order. Correspondence from Sykes stated: We do appreciate the inconvenience you faced when you found the swimming pool to be unavailable. The owner made it possible for you to use a hot tub as an alternative. The access to a hot tub, for one evening, does not compensate for a weekâs missed swimming. Really disappointed.
