Guests appreciate the spacious, well-equipped property, though some noted minor maintenance issues. The lodge's peaceful setting and the helpfulness of the owners contribute to a pleasant holiday experience.
The lodge consistently receives compliments for its cleanliness, with several reviews highlighting it as very clean upon arrival. One review mentioned a new-looking duvet, reinforcing the property's attention to cleanliness.
The location is frequently described as lovely and quiet, with easy access to local attractions like Wiseman's Bridge and Saundersfoot. The proximity to beaches and pubs is a plus, although one review mentioned a lack of privacy due to the central situation of the lodge.
Many guests find the lodge comfortable and spacious. However, some reviews point out the need for updates, such as an uncomfortable sofa and a mattress that could be replaced. These issues slightly affect the overall comfort score.
The lodge is well-regarded for its modern facilities and amenities. Nonetheless, there are reports of maintenance issues like a freezing shower when taps are used elsewhere, a damp corner, and an unpleasant odour in one bathroom. These concerns impact the score.
While guests mention a welcome pack, it is not consistently referenced across the reviews, and as such, it cannot be guaranteed for future guests. Therefore, a score cannot be provided for thoughtfulness due to insufficient information.

The lodge is very spacious and has everything you need. It does needs a little updating, the sofa is quite uncomfortable after sitting there for a while and the double mattress in the master could do with replacing as you can feel every spring, we did find a topper on the other double, so swapped it over. Still needs replacing though. We used our own duvet cover and fitted sheet,as we have very sensitive skin, but used the duvet itself which was like brand new. Overall, the lodge was very clean and on a lovely site. Everyone on the site was really friendly. Will definitely be returning next year.

Very comfortable and in a good position on the site. The owners were very helpful with a small problem we had and it was soon rectified. I would definitely recommend this property. Hope to go back in the not too distant future. Thank you to the owners for all your help.
