We enjoyed our stay. It was central to all the places we wanted to visit.
It was comfortable and once the heating was on very warm. The Kitchen could do with a new can opener and baking trays. Mostly we ate at the Restaurant which was very good and welcoming.
Was not easy to find in the dark. It would have helped to have a couple of lights or a lit up door sign. I realize most people go in the Summer so probably not an issue.

Never again!
The lodge was absolutely filthy. I would never stay there again and I don't advise you to as well.
The first night we barely had any sleep because the sheets were clearly not changed and extremely filthy. And I mean covered in period stains and dirt filthy. We also got 4 towels for 6 people. When I messaged the manager (because he wouldn't pick up), he was incredibly rude and kept insisting there are enough towels, not even acknowledging the disgusting state of the beds. When he sent the cleaners we were asked to vacate for 15 minutes in a storm. When we returned, only two of the rooms had the bedsheets changed and the pillowcases were still the same. At least we got towels I guess.
The filth doesn't end there too. I've been to many pet friendly places and they never stank of dog pee like this place. There was a doggy blanked with vomit on it IN the wardrobe! The entire room stank from it.
In the end, we were 15 minutes late to check out purely because we lost track of time cleaning up and checking everything. A nice 'can you please vacate' would have been enough. Instead, the two cleaning ladies shouted at us that they don't have all day to wait for us and treated us terribly. Then they proceeded to just walk around calmly, didn't seem to be in a rush one bit.
Overall just terrible experience. We've never been treated this rudely and unprofessionally anywhere else and I've had many good reviews from holiday parks that were happy with how we treat the place.

Very disappointing
Feedback given via booking.com to the lodge owner for info:
Carpets
It appeared that the carpets had recently been cleaned as they were wet when we arrived. All the windows were open in an attempt to allow them to dry, but they didn’t dry out in the entire (curtailed) time we were there. The smell of damp was all pervasive and one of our party has asthma which was becoming so bad in the environment, we had to come home early. She spent the last night coughing and getting no sleep and becoming distressed.
Smell
As well as the smell of damp, there were other odours present. Investigation showed that the dishwater filter was absolutely filthy so our first job was to clean that then rewash all the crockery etc that was left in the dishwasher.
This reduced the smell of fish, but didn’t address the damp smell however.
In addition there was a slight smell of smoke, particularly in the main bedroom which remained during our visit.
Safety
The path leading up to the verandah was perilously slippy. Despite us all being incredibly careful, on the second evening my feet flew out from under me and I landed very heavily on my bottom. Luckily nothing was broken (it could so easily have been) but I still have a nagging discomfort.
Cleanliness
I have mentioned the dishwasher. As well as rewashing a lot of the cutlery and crockery, we cleaned the cutlery tray, wiped down all the surfaces, and cleaned the crumbs etc out of the drawers.
The hoover was also full and dusty and dirty. We did not try to clean the hoover.
The sealant round the shower in the ensuite was largely impregnated with black mould (and on a separate note, the fan in the ensuite was unbelievably loud so could not be used when anyone in the lodge was trying to sleep)
I have pictures of the points I have made above which I can forward to you if required.

Our stay was very disappointing.
Location of property was great.
Space in the lodge was good too.
First impressions weren’t great. Steps up to the lodge hadn’t been swept and were full of wet leaves , as was the decking. Furniture on the decking wasn’t set out and was randomly scattered all over the front of the lodge with random toys spread out too. We had our 86 year old mum with us who was terrified of slipping on the steps.
Lodge wasn’t cleaned properly. All carpets were full of bits and the lounge had popcorn, bits of toys, paper and leaflets under coffee table and sofas - we had a small baby with us . We had luckily taken our own play-mat but after the 7 month old baby pulling popcorn and then a chess piece from under the sofa we had to move them and attempt to vacuum with a Vacuum cleaner that wasn’t fit for purpose. The kitchen floor was very sticky. There were lots of hanging wires at the side of the fireplace which again were a danger to the baby but also looked a mess.
Reviews we had read prior to booking had mentioned the decor looking dated but it was also very tired and in need of updating. The sealant around the bottom of the shower in the en suit was mouldy and the bath panel in the main bathroom was held onto the bath via a bath mat hanging over the side of the bath.

Beautiful area, nice house, but very long list of issues and owner won't acknowledge or respond
The actual house is nice, property and surrounding area is beautiful.
Where to start? We have a very long list of issues. We reached out to the owner twice. He promised to respond, but we never heard from him again. We gave him 2 weeks to contact us before doing this review.
Kitchen:
-Cooking knives are dull and very difficult to cut with
-No steak knives
-Water takes a long time to warm up, then suddenly turns cold, making it difficult to hand wash pots and pans
-Pots are too small for a family of 6, and there’s only one pan which has a broken/toxic finish
-One kitchen drawer is completely broken, a 2nd one fell apart when I tried to open it
Dining Room:
-House sleeps 6, and we clearly booked for 6 people, but there are only 3 chairs at the dining room table
-One chair fell apart when my dad sat on it, and he is not a heavy person! He is 74 years old and ended up on the floor from simply sitting down on a chair
-4 out of 6 can lights over the dining table are burned out.
-Only 1 kitchen towel, no washcloths, no paper towels
-No hot pads to take things out of the oven (and only 1 damp kitchen towel to use instead!)
-No trash bags provided
Bathrooms:
-No toiletries provided (not ideal for international travelers)
-No hand towels in the master bathroom, only a couple bath towels
-No facial tissues (and not enough toilet paper to use in other rooms as facial tissues)
-Only 2 1/2 small rolls of toilet paper for 6 people for 3 nights/4 days, so we ran out
-Water pressure is low, and the water fluctuates from very hot to very cold
-No hair dryer (rainy weather, and would be easy to provide)
Master Bedroom:
-Two closet shelves missing, so the closet cannot be fully utilized
-Duvet was too small for the bed, making it challenging for us to both stay covered overnight
Misc.:
-Vacuum doesn’t work. Badly needs cleaned and all the hair cut off the roller
-Washing machine doesn’t work!! It sounds like it’s running, you can hear water, but it doesn’t fill with water or run
Property desperately needs care. We don't recommend.

1 - decking area very run down, table falling apart
2 - kitchen drawers falling apart
3 - washing machine doesnt work
4 - windows very dirty
5 - dining chairs collapsed when used, my mum really hurt herself

7 - patio doors didn't lock, had to get maintenance to look at it.

There were a couple of things with the lodge but I contacted the owner who assures me he will address them.
I was not aware a family swimming pass for a family of 4 would be £70 for 3 days. we paid it it and made sure we got ample use !!!

Do not stay in this lodge!!!!!
The location
It was absolutely filthy. Admittedly the cleaners hadn’t been, but the place is very run down. There was a T-shirt still in the master double bed from the previous occupant, excrement stains in 1 bed, urine stains in another. Freezer blocked solid, couldn’t open the drawers, shower head had been ripped out the wall, wet towels and dirty floors, not to mention the smell. We left immediately, the wife was not going to stay in that place. Adam the owner would not refund our money, despicable human being. Had a nightmare going through booking.com, be aware it’s up to the owner if they want to refund the money, nothing to do with booking.com.

Great for pets.
Location, enclosed balcony, decor. Easy parking and check in.
TV was removed from master bedroom. 2nd bedroom had TV but didn't work straight away. I had to hunt for firestick and connect myself. Water pressure is too low for a decent shower. No bins for rubbish.

Nice stay but needs attention and repairs.
Nice location, good site, nice beds with good night sleep. Nice kitchen and lounge.
Generally enjoyed the stay and lodge.
Tv in main bedroom broken and in closet. Second tv in spare room not tuned in. Shower in Ensuite is useless as it’s not powerfull enough and temperature shifts from hot to cold, thankfully the bath was fine. Power socket in main bedroom coming away from the wall. No USB power outlets anywhere. Kitchen cooker island sides are peeling off all over and looks shabby . There were old socks and toys under the living room table so cleaners are not cleaning properly. Outside seating is old and warped and needs replacing. None of the toys or board games were complete as they all had parts missing. Windows need cleaning and general TLC needed throughout.

Horror Movie Lodge.
Nice place to stay. Easy access to lakes.
The lodge we were in (number 3) was disgraceful.
From the outside steps in bad condition, the decking was covered in green and covered in debris, and the lodge was covered in spider webs and spider nests. The windows were filthy.
Inside the decor was tatty, the wardrobe in back bedroom was unusable as it was blocked off by a bed. In the main bedroom, the onsuite shower has black mold all around the bottom of the shower tray and the walk in closet was dark as the light didn't work. There was a problem with the boiler which only gave hot water for 1 minute so showering and bathing was not possible unless you wanted a cold bath or shower. Over all, this lodge is run down and not maintained. Looks like the Adams Family lodge. I have put a few pictures on but I have plenty more if required.
I would advise anyone to avoid booking this lodge.

Really lovely lodge, comfy beds with a good lake view. The area is lovely too.
Lodge lovely with lake view. Inside nice and clean. Beds comfortable.
The twigs and little branches from the trees on the decking and chairs. I swept the whole decking and washed the outdoor furniture so we were able to sit outside. Not a big issue at all. No front door on the dishwasher but it still works.

Fab lodge, lovely location - we would definitely return and recommend.
The lodge is absolutely lovely, clean and comfortable. We actually extended our stay and stayed a week and the hosts were really accommodating and helpful. The area was quiet and really pretty and the local restaurant and bar were very nice with excellent food and really helpful and friendly staff.
