"Could do with a new sofa"

"Fabulous thank you"

"Fabulous! Loved it. Highly recommend!!!!"

"The lodge was a great size, there were a couple of small maintenance issues, but they were attended to quickly.General cleanliness was good, but think a deeper clean is required."

"All good, friendly staff,Gosport for a short break"

"My wife and I stayed 19/2/24 until 23/2/24 so we appreciate it was out of season but we felt like they have crammed too many Lodges in a small place. Whilst the hot tub was fantastic it felt like we was on display as everyone could see you in it from all angles, a bit more privacy would of made us relax more. The weather was not kind to us so the ferry was not operating so if we wanted to go for a walk the only option was to walk along the single track road which we decided against. The Lodge itself was absolutely perfect well cleaned and maintained apart from paying for the WiFi which was very hit and miss as to whether you could get online or not. Overall we enjoyed our stay here."

"The lodge was okay but was missing some of the basic items we'd expect to be there (washing up bowl, dish cloth, bed side lamps, hand soap). Some kitchen items were in a poor state (pan/kettle/knife handles loose). Advertised Internet is a charged extra and limited to 1 device with a charge of £5 for each additional one, not ideal given the number of devices a family will have. WiFi strength was also very poor and prevented access in the rear half of the property. The hot tub was also turned off and drained before we'd left on our final day! Having said that, facilities such as the shop and swimming pool were good, and those issues reported to staff were fixed quickly. We still enjoyed the holiday!"

"Lovely place to stay"

"Had a great time. Only one criticism- swimming can only be booked for 45 mins which is just not long enough."

"Had a great time. Weve stayed several times and will be back in March.The property is fabulous but we have noticed that it is starting to show signs of wear and tear and could do with a general spruce up. New sofas are lovely. There wasnt 12 of everything as there should have been. Stove has a couple of rings not working even though the gas check inside cupboard door that was done in March has highlighted it."

"The Penthouse View was the ideal accommodation for overlooking the river. It was spacious, light and airy"

"A bit tired in paces"

"We did experience a couple of issues, but they were dealt with speedily and efficiently by the staff on site. Overall it was fine, quite isolated but we knew that beforehand and were happy to proceed."

"Pleasant place if you enjoy a peaceful, slower pace. Need transport."

"The view was great but apartment needed some attention in places"

"See first page"

"Relaxing and peaceful time at Barn Owl lodge complete with friendly duck and rabbits hopping on grass. The Inn had lovely staff and filling meals . All the staff we met were friendly and helpful. Lovely place to stay"

"Inside was spotless, everything worked well, but the decking area could have been cleaned better (lots of cobwebs)."

"had great time lovely location but some of the lodges starting to look run down outside"

"Was a lovely luxurious hotel quality accommodation."

"We had a great week in a nice sized lodge with a big hot tub"

"Loved the holiday only thing I could fault was the restaurant and when we complained to the restaurant manager he just shrugged it off. Such a shame as the rest of the holiday was perfect."

"Lovely time in a lovely, quiet setting."

"Overall a fantastic holiday with excellent accommodation. Grandparents, adults and children alike enjoyed the facilities including the swimming pool and the hot tub on site. The restaurant was good quality food and a nice setting and staff were friendly. However, the staffing levels appeared to be low and we had to wait over an hour for our precooked meal to be served. However, staff did give us a free round of drinks to make up for this. Would definitely stay again at Waveney river centre and local Beccles town nice for a stroll and within a local drive away."

"The perfect place for a family weekend away. Stayed in the Farmhouse which had plenty of space for all 12 of us and the 2 dogs. So peaceful.
Our only complaint would be the lack of utensils in the kitchen, in general if it caters for 12 people it could do with more kitchen equipment. In places it could do with a little lick of paint. But otherwise, it is perfect and we will be coming again very soon!!"

"Lovely big lodge, perhaps a little tired and some areas needs a bit more deep cleaning (edges. ledges) but overall pleasant enough. Bedding & towels were all lovely and crisp and clean. And Beds comfortable.
It was a weekend away with another family and 4 bedrooms/3 bathrooms was great meant we all had are own space. Plenty of lounging space too.
Hot tub had I would think been used previously with some sort of oil because it felt very soapy on your skin and had a film on it, didn't bother the teenagers but think it probably needed a better clean.
Kitchen crockery & cutlery abit sparse, they had removed non essential items and there was literally 8 plates, bowls, mugs, glasses etc, so had to wash up continually. None of the glasses matched, it's the small things that make a difference and ensuring that you had 8 matching wine glasses and highballs shows an attention to detail and there were no flutes which was a shame. With the lodge being a SPA one with hot tub I would have expected the standard of the crockery & glassware to be better. A few more serving bowls and spoons, when your feeding 8 more is needed."

"Due to the way the lodges are positioned to get the best view, the hot tub is off to one side rather than on/in the decking"

"A well earned break for 4 key workers would recommend it"

"I liked the location and the style of the lodge, really spacious and designed well. Called team in regards to one frying pan and 2 x big spoons they advised me this was the norm! Pleasure hill beach and Africa live was amazing! I would only go back if they stock up their kitchen equipments! Staff was polite!"

"Really friendly check-in, after a call to say our lodge was available early - which was a bonus. The location is quite remote and you need a car to get around."

"Beautiful location and views, Our lodge with hot tub was very lovely and clean x We had the perfect week Thank you we will be coming back soon x"

"Lodge was I the perfect location and lovely, great views and ideal for us as couples and our dog. The kitchen was well equipped and loved having home comfort like the dishwasher. Only a couple of things not 100% the recliner sofa was broken in recliner position (but not a real problem) The bed in the bedroom with the un suite was to low and big for the room, the post at the end, kept walking into and covered on bruises. A divan would work better. The swimming pool was small but warm and as booking a spot was perfect for a quick dip and not busy. The staff from reception to bar staff all very helpful and friendly. The restaurant had a limited menu but food was good and went to the extra help to accommodate our dietary needs. We hired a boat for 4 hours and this is a must the mist wonderful day and a great experience. Again could not fault it. All in all had the most relaxing, chilling four days. Just what we all needed."

"We had the best relaxing holiday in barn owl lodge and we will definitely return again From the ladies that lunch xx"

"Lovely lodge with great views across the marse land.Had cows close by.Saw deers and different birds.Spacious lodge especially having a big doggie Nice and clean .Everything worked and was good having freezer separate to fridge so lots of space .Need to drive as there’s nothing much close by eg supermarkets ,restaurants.Nice walks over the marse land.You get a little boat that takes you across the water to get to the marsh land."

"We have a fabulous time, this is the second time we have stayed at Waveney (this time as a family) the lodge was clean and well equipped, the hot tub was a hit with the whole family, we also used the pool this time which was also clean and staff friendly. The only downside this stay was the pub wasn’t serving food we where looking forward to walking down for a evening meal and with having children this time I was disappointed with the play area"
