Great location

Thank you for your review. Your comments about the lodge and its cleanliness have been noted and will be passed on to the owners and cleaner respectively. We are especially surprised by those about the condition of the lodge given the bathroom, among other things, has recently been upgraded. Regrettably we had to inform you about the poor state in which you left the lodge (after just a 3 night stay) and feel this may well have prompted some of the comments in your review. These are very much at odds with other guest feedback. Acorn Bank is a very popular lodge which is always booked up well in advance and one of the very few at Fallbarrow which has it's own private hot tub.
Brilliant lodge in a perfect location

Another thoroughly enjoyable stay at Acorn Bank

Thank you for your review, Lynn and we are so pleased to hear you had another enjoyable stay at Acorn Bank. With that said thank you also for raising a couple of things with us and we shall follow these up with the housekeepers, and similarly pass on all you have said to the lodge owners for their reference. This is a great place to stay and we are delighted you thought so too. We look forward to you returning again next year!
Lovely stay at fallbarrow park.

Acorn bank Lodge
Review date: 12th July 2019
Thank you for your review Karlie. We were sorry to hear a couple of things weren't quite right for your stay and we have made the owners aware of your feedback. Your comments about the deck are somewhat surprising as it was jet washed and treated only in June. It also seems you were surprised by the fact that the lodge had a number of steps even though the pictures and website description make this very clear. The trees are managed by the park owners themselves and they have been asked to look at whether the branches need any attention. They aren't however considered dangerous although it is inevitable that when it is windy the odd small branch or twig may break off. Acorn Bank is a very popular lodge which enjoys a private and elevated location within Fallbarrow Park. ADDED JANUARY 2020: The outside deck and steps have had new anti slip composite boards fitted which greatly enhance the lodge appearance.
