Somerford Lodge Reviews

The lodge is beautiful, comfortable, clean and you wouldnt even know any other dogs had been there. It was absolutely spotless inside. Not a dog hair or a dog smell anywhere. Beautifully decorated and very well equipped. Unfortunately the weather was not on our side and it literally banged it down all week. We then had a 16 hour power cut. We did make use of the hot tub initially but the hot tub maintenance guy neither topped up the water nor put a net inside to remove any debris. We kept an ate out for nets while out and about but never found one so we just didnt use it again after day 4. Being there all week, we never once saw any hot tubs being emptied and refilled between guests either. We would definitely return to Somerford lodge and we have already recommended to others. Despite a few set backs we still had a great week.
Debbie
Lovely attractive lodge with double bifold doors. Inside the lodge was nice and clean and decorated very tastefully throughout. Bed extremely comfy too. Welcome pack very much appreciated! Although not an issue with us, this lodge is completely in the shade all through the day. Sun appears to shine on all the opposite lodges, we noticed a lot debris, leaves, fallen moss, sticks etc on the decking area from surrounding trees, which made it feel a little unloved. We would have gladly swept this up, but could not find an outdoor sweeping brush. We also noticed a lot of cigarette ends from previous guests around the gate area and the fire ash bucket had been used to empty dog waste in. The rattan furniture outside was broken and rusty, so unable to use these, although there was some nicer garden furniture we did use. Its a shame the same amount of attention is not taken on the outside of the property as it clearly is taken on the inside. Overall though, we had a great stay and will return.
Brilliant few days away in a beautiful setting and extremely comfortable lodge.
Absolutely beautiful lodge had everything we could possible ask for. Very comfortable very clean and in a great location. Would recommend to anyone over and over again.
Nicola
A lovely lodge in beautiful surroundings. We loved our stay and would return, we were gutted its booked for the week we wanted in August. The lodge is a home from home had everything you need and extremely cosy especially the beds! Our girls loved the pool on site and our youngest loved the discos with the characters in the evening. The location is perfect for lots of days out including Brockhole which has a brilliant free childrens park lovely grounds to walk in and zip world. We loved the welcome park on arrival and the hot tube. It was a perfect week away from our busy lives!! Would definitely recommend x
