"All the furniture and fittings all worked and were very clean. The lack of indoor living area was the factor for the average score for comfort and furnitre and fittings. Along with having no oven mitt and no microwave."

"The lodge was everything it said it was in the ad description, it's a fantastic place for walking, birdwatching and visiting the many castles, as well as hours spent sketching and painting the awesome countryside."

"The space was really well planned and felt quite large. We were really lucky with the weather so made the most of the outside hot tub and space. The cover bar of the hot tub was broken when we arrived but it was quickly fixed without us having to report it so the site is very well maintained. Very new, quiet and clean."

"Our The Pond Lodges review: Was a lovely place highly recommend"

"We had a lovely stay! The place was super peaceful and spotless, with all the essentials like plates, cups, glasses, pans and even washing up liquid. Only thing missing was shower gel and shampoo, but we brought our own. The mattress needs replacing though-wasn't very comfy."

"We stayed at the lodge for four nights and found it just as described-spotlessly clean and well-equipped. The only downside was the bed; those springs really dug in and the pillows were quite flat, which others had also mentioned. On a brighter note, Bob the resident dog was adorable and so welcoming - he was clearly excited to see us after our walks. Wed definitely return!"

"We stayed at Cherry Lodge and honestly, it had everything we needed for a short break. The kitchen was compact but fully stocked and the shower was really good. The double bed looked out onto a stunning view and the breakfast bar with stools was a nice touch. The hot tub on the decking was definitely a highlight, with comfy chairs to relax and enjoy the scenery. Would happily return!"

"We loved how serene everything was - truly peaceful! The place is compact but feels luxurious, definitely not enough time here. Only a tiny gripe: some more signs for Pond Lodges would help, sat nav led us astray. Well be back!"

"We stayed in the Maple Lodge and honestly, it was pretty lovely. Everything we needed was there, from comfy furniture to all the essentials. The outdoor seating area was a nice touch, perfect for relaxing evenings. The hot tub was a highlight, though we did notice it wasnt covered, which was a bit of a shame. On our first night, the weather was perfect, so we made the most of it, but the next day, heavy rain meant we had to use the hot tub cover as a makeshift shelter! Itd be great if they added covers over the hot tubs, like the other lodges seem to have. Still, overall, a great stay!"
