“Be useful to have the sign post more visible from road so you can see when you have found the lodges.”

Also when exiting the location onto main road would be very useful to have some sort of mirror to see if anything coming down road rather than coming out blind and hoping for the best .

- Jonathan, September 2024

Thank you for the excellent top scores for everything including cleanliness and comfort and for letting us know your thoughts on the road signage etc Property Owner
John August 2024

“Great chalet and location and comfort.”

Large comfy sofas too. Fantastic views, everything you need except hoover but maybe it was meant to be a rest from housework. Owner responded immediately to request about oven and cleaners very friendly. Only downside was dishwasher didn't wash effectively, toilet seat unhygenic delaminated and a bit of black mould round windows behind curtains and in corners. Great to have garden to exercise dog and lovely big decking for outside dining.

- John, August 2024

Thank you for your comments and we are sorry about any inconvenience. The toilet seat has been rectified and the dishwasher is being checked for any malfunction and walls will of course be checked. We are glad you found the sofas comfy and you enjoyed the fabulous views, decking and garden area Property Owner

“Place was unclean when we arrived with dirt in the corners of the rooms and filthy windows.”

A lot of the crockery and utensils had been put away dirty, and had to be washed before use. This was difficult as there was no hot water or heating- the boiler was broken. The electric fire was attached to an extension lead, the plug of which set alight when plugged in and melted. There were 2 cupboard doors hanging by one hinge and the main light socket in bedroom 2 was ripped off and found in the wardrobe. 'Holiday' had to be abandoned after 2 days

- Dawn, June 2024

Sep 24; Your concerns have been fully discussed by ourselves with Sykes, the plug for the fire has been replaced , we also apologise for any cleanliness oversight. The cupboard door has now been fixed and the dishwasher will be checked. The ceiling light has also been replaced and we are glad we were able to resolve your complaint. The boiler has also been serviced again as part of the property's most recent gas certificate check. There will also be another property manager moving forward who is proactively checking all historic areas of concern for any further required remedial action and to ensure that moving forward any concerns or maintenance issues are dealt with proactively and speedily Property Owner

“On arrival we all thought what a wonderful place which it was but then while looking around the Lodge maintenance really does need looking at , the first thing we had to do was clear the parking area of dog mess (roughly 12 lots of it ) so not to walk it into the lodge or my car ( I do believe were the owners own dog ) this was reported to the owner who claimed the cleaner missed it .”

Also light bulbs not working again reported but owner failed to respond, leaving the lodges you have to go up a steep incline onto a narrow lane if the very high weeds and hedge was chopped back a little this would of made it much safer because as it is you just have to hope if there's anything coming along the lane that they will stop and let you out , but the out look of the lodge is wonderful the decking needs attention, but on the whole we probably wouldn't return.

“The listing is inaccurate and some of the stated facilities are not in place.”

Having said that it was still good accommodation in a magnificent setting .

“Very comfortable, great location, would definitely stay again and recommend.”

Would suggest the kitchen equipment be more extensive; more cutlery, tupperware, (for packed lunches/picnics etc), and to keep on top of chipped plates/bowls, cling film, silver foil, practical things like that, other than that no complaints. Would ask the owners to consider allowing dogs as the accommodation lends itself very well, (additional charges would apply I know), also, just as a personal suggestion a hot tub would be great in the garden next to the lodge, I understand this is costly, maybe an inflatable, and of course allow to charge more.

“We had a great break.”

The lodge was out of the way in a quiet area and it was very comfortable and clean with plenty of space. Everything was provided, as described on the website. Also close to towns round and about so not that far to travel. Would definitely recommend.

“Had a lovely week away staying at Springtime Lodge.”

James the owner was welcoming and friendly and nothing was too much trouble. The location was outstanding and peaceful, with amazing views. We enjoyed watching the sunset from the veranda every evening. Perfect location to explore the North Wales coastline. Would certainly recommend and not hesitate to return.

“The log cabin was wonderful.”

Unfortunately we had to cut our holiday short because of the Welsh Covid restrictions but shall certainly book again in the future The owner Mrs Gethin was most hospitable and very obliging.

Rosemary March 2020

“The holiday lodge was conveniently placed for the Expressway enabling quick and easy access to the North Wales tourist and beauty spots.”

It had beautiful views of the surrounding countryside and mountains and, had the weather been warmer, we would have enjoyed sitting out on the balcony with our coffee. The lodge itself was well equipped, very clean, comfortable and cosy. We were made most welcome by Mrs.Gethin and her sister and we very much hope to return again.

- Rosemary, March 2020

“WOW This is an amazing place, its our first time staying in North Wales and we could not fault a single thing.”

Springtime Lodge was brilliant the facility's were fantastic and aslo the view is to die for. We stayed as a family of 4 it's was perfect. Mrs Gethin the owner was the most beautiful and amazing person, very helpful as initially I got lost trying to find the place so rang the owner and she jumped in her car to find me and I then followed her as she showed me were the lodge was. I would give this place 10 out of 10 was very peaceful and relaxing would recomed to everyone as I no I will be telling my friends and family to go (only so I can tag along) it really is axing here.

John September 2018

“Pleasant, comfortable and with wonderful views.”

Lodge is in the perfect place. But I think it needs to be re-furbished as a lot of the inside is looking a bit worn. But we still had a great time.

“A lovely comfortable, airy lodge with a decked area and pretty lawned garden.”

Lots of privacy (there are three lodges in a row, this being the far end, so you are hardly aware of the others.) And a beautiful view from the big double doors and the deck.

It was warm, roomy and very comfortable. The view we had was fabulous. My friend and I have enjoyed the whole experience. We were within a few miles of many places to see, everyone was friendly and we would definitely go back again. The owner is a lovely lady, she was there to help with anything we needed.
