Good situation for visiting Bournemouth, Poole, Lymington, New Forest etc., A few disappointing things on initial arrival were the fridge needing cleaning, there was food left in cupboards from previous guests, worktops and handles felt sticky, the shower wasn’t particularly clean in the corners and the toilet seat in the en-suite was cracked. The entrance mat was quite marked from previous clients dirty shoe marks, and the cupboards all very untidy and haphazard. The fridge door is difficult to close and the door shelf cracked. None of these spoilt our holiday, but I wouldn’t say it was luxurious. It may be our downfall that we’re particular and like things spotless……..after wiping out the fridge and washing kitchen tops/handles, and wiping down odd marks on doors, we went on to accept the other discrepancies and had a most enjoyable week in the lodge. The lounge furniture was comfortable and kitchen utensils plentiful. The beds were comfortable. We had a few chillier evenings and it was lovely and cosy with the heating on. Such a shame that a few very minor issues let our expectations down……with a little bit more effort with the cleaning we could have been much more complementary.
