What guests are saying
The property has potential for a nice weekend stay, but it definitely needs a good deep clean and some investment to make it feel more homely and cosy.
Unfortunately, the beds were extremely uncomfortable which made it difficult to get a good night’s sleep and really affected our overall experience. With some improvements to the cleanliness, comfort and furnishings, the property could be much more welcoming and enjoyable.
Have visited Fallbarrow so many times but never this lodge.
Lovely setting but when entering the lodge my immediate thought was it must be dog friendly - which it isn’t. Had an aroma that intensified during our visit. The en-suite bathroom has obvious issues with a vile stale water smell. Very unpleasant and needs sorting immediately. General cleanliness was not what I would expect. Also the bottle shelf in the fridge door was broken and half missing so could not the shelf at all - needs replacing. Not the newest lodge but that shouldn’t have mattered if good maintenance and housekeeping was kept up to date. Site facilities as always were first class. Please advise the owner of these issues. As I am sure similar remarks will follow.
AVOID THIS LODGE!
!!! Have now been in the Lakes 7 years running for the school October week and this has to be the worst lodge I have been in and at nearly 1k for the week one the most expensive ones So don’t t know where to start but ultimately this lodge is not what you get in the pictures it’s dated, run down and genuinely a lodge that has no attention to detail and any attempts to make this feel homely and warm. In terms of cleanliness this is where is it really really lets its down so just a small ideas but the bathrooms are disgusting mould, yellow stained toilet seats, broken snapped panel’s dusty dirty floors and ACTUAL cobwebs in and around the toilet, stained towels and floors. - the en suite we could not actually use due to the smell ABSOLUTELY NO INE SHOULD HAVE TO ACCEPT THIS ITS NOTICEABLY FEOM THE BEDROOM and as a family of 4 we all had to use the other bathroom due to the disgusting smell in the other one the 1st thing we had to do was go to Tesco and buy cleaning products to help with the smell but actually made it worse.(Nice start to holiday) Cutlery not cleaned and generally not a clean kitchen. The outside decking honestly looks like it had not been cleaned in months it was just mess and rotting leaves everywhere previous occupants left coals lighters BBQ fluid all within touching distance for the kids and again everything outside was covered in cobwebs and on entry the lodge looked like it had honestly been abandoned. White Cross Bay has never let me down with a lodge and everyone has been spotless but who ever owns/lets this out should be ashamed and this property clearly needs another visit to re evaluate any high star grading. We for the 1st ever came home early from our 7 day break. I also noticed there are no options to leave pictures do you not want your next customer seeing this? I also notice you may not post this so I willl keep an eye on it and if not I will be contacting you direst for an explanation and leaving as many PICTURED reviews on as many other sites as possible so the paying public know what to expect. Just feel really let down by you I await your response
