Decent Stay with Minor Issues

clean bedding large shower warm staff miss-matched plates beer smell faulty radiator
The house had clean bedding. Towels were also clean. The large shower was a selling point. Staff members seemed warm.
The plates were miss-matched. Glasses were different. The smell in one bedroom smelled of beer. The main bedroom radiator did not work.

Acceptable stay overall

dishwasher tablets hand soap hot tub polite owner site development untidy area hot tub
The lodge included extras like dishwasher tablets. It also had hand soap. The hot tub was quite lovely. The owner was very polite.
Major developments were underway on site. This made the area untidy. The stay looked like it included a hot tub, but it did not.
