Guests say

Bottom Lodge in Chepstow is highly praised for its clean, modern accommodation with beautiful views and peaceful surroundings. Guests appreciate the friendly owners, comfy beds, and thoughtful touches like welcome packs. The lodge is well-equipped with modern conveniences, and the location is ideal for walking and enjoying local attractions. While there is a mention of maintenance and cleanliness issues in one review, the overall sentiment is overwhelmingly positive, with many guests planning to return.

Most guests found the lodge clean and well-kept, with only one review mentioning a smell and a need for cleaning materials. The positive remarks about the cleanliness, including fresh linen and a clean hot tub, suggest a high standard of cleanliness overall.

The location is consistently described as peaceful with stunning views, close to walking trails and local amenities. The proximity to Wentwood Forest and a fantastic local pub adds to the appeal, making the location highly regarded by guests.

Guests frequently mention the comfort of the lodge, highlighting the super comfy beds, high-quality bedding, and underfloor heating. The only minor negative comment was about the sofa needing replacement, but overall, the lodge is considered very comfortable.

The lodge is praised for its modern facilities, including a dishwasher, washing machine, and hot tub. However, one review noted a lack of maintenance and kitchen equipment, which slightly lowers the score. The majority of guests were satisfied with the facilities provided.

Several reviews mention the thoughtful gestures of the hosts, such as welcome packs and decorations for special occasions. While these gifts are appreciated, it is important to note that such personal touches, though likely, are not guaranteed for every stay.

    Lovely idyllic location and very quiet. A very well equipped kitchen and plenty of space in the lodge. Hot tub is immaculate. We couldn't of asked for more. We loved our time here.
