2 Bedroom Lodge TH35, Nodes Point, St Helens, Isle of Wight

The Lodge was a really good size (wide & spacious). Both bedrooms are really good sizes. Had a big fridge freezer which made the food shopping a lot easier. It is near the clubhouse and it's a nice stroll downhill to the beach. Slight sea view above the chalets in front too which was an added bonus!

The Lodge is very 'tired' and needs some TLC/repairs which we didn't see from the initial pictures. It wasn't the cleanest either and having a little one that is on the move I had to thoroughly hoover over the first couple of days to remove a lot of the dog hair (we are a pet free family). Also the kitchen oven didn't fully work and there was a big crack behind the hob. Some of the handles on the windows were slightly loose too. But still closed OK. All in all I think it was slightly over priced for the condition it was in but still a nice stay.

The location of the caravan was nice with a view of the harbour and was easy to find on arrival. Although the caravan was on the main thoroughfare, it wasn’t too noisy. We could park the car, right outside.

The caravan was a bit dated and tired and we had to clean the saucepans and pans before use. There wasn’t a sharp knife so I was glad I had brought my own, as we have been caught out before. A lot of the seals around the windows needed to be set back in as we noticed they were loose. We also noticed the gas certificate and CO2 monitor were of date.

We knew the site and have stayed there previously so knew the area which is lovely, especially Priory bay our favorite beach. We were told about the cooker not working prior to traveling and we did have a problem getting the heating to work so the instructions weren't clear once we had managed to get hold of the owner and get the heating working it was a very comfortable stay. The layout of the accommodation is perfect for 2 couples and lovely to have a full sized bath as well as a shower. I would book again.

Better instructions about both the central heating and the lounge fire.

Easy to find, parking next to property, the park was nearly empty as last weekend in November. Lots of space, nice seats,

Some bits need work. Extractor in main bathroom didnt work, carpet gets caught under the door, controls on oven hard to read, Main shower took a long time to empty and was either on or off. The on site facitilies were closed but expected as off season.
