Cannot believe I'm writing this review, seem like we've just arrived at the lodge yesterday and enjoying the hot tub and sun.|We went as a family of 5 ( including our fluffy dog) and stayed at Housesteads it was perfect as the garden was fenced so our dog can run around in the grass, sadly you either have to go through the bedroom to the garden (when your guests are awake) or through the double doors and then the gate, but that didn't bother us going through the room but wanted to share.|The lodge was warm and welcoming, ahead of arrival, Craig messaged us and gave us complimentary earlier check in but sadly we weren't able to be there until later due to long journey.|The kitchen was equipped and each guest was given towels and robes for the hot tub.|The single room were spacious and a lot of space for luggage and even a dog bed too! Sad thing about it was the blinds, they were lovely and match the lodge but if you want to sleep in a bit, the double room is better as the sun rises on the side where the single room is, we went in the summer so you can imagine we were up at 4am each day . Haha!!||Location was great and went out bascially everyday exploring nearby towns and cities, as well as lovely beaches. Definitely look at coming back...

Read moreThis was a very nice place, but there are issues to be aware of. For one, the bed is not a comfy king-size bed, but 2 singles connected and it is not as nice as it could be. Premier Inn beds come to mind. There was no duvet and the pillows were old and flat, and there are 2 rather irritating lights keeping the bedroom too light. The lights in general are extremely bright, so there is not such a nice atmosphere in the lounge area. And finally, I am very short and old. I could not reach the plug for the microwave without standing on a chair, and could not reach many of the glasses. And the towels were not fluffy or luxurious, the dressing gown flimsy and small. I did enjoy the time, the coffee machine and the hot tub and the telly, but it all could have been more luxurious. I would have preferred some condiments, like oil, instead of wine! And lastly, they charged me £30 to be able to check out at a time every other hotel I have stayed in...
