Lovely property in a good location on the site

Nothing

Lovely property in a great location . Very comfortable, and thoughtful welcome gift and decorations for a special occasion.

We loved everything about the property and location we had a fabulous holiday . Only down side was the cost of the entertainment pass .. very steep due to the festival , we didn’t get our £240.00 moneys worth . This is nothing to to with the property however , but I would advise considering whether you require the pass in future .

The lodge was fantastic, it is absolutely huge. The roof terrace was great to watch the world go by. Beds were comfy. My youngest loved the big teddy bears. The owners provided the best welcome pack and provided all cleaning products, dishwasher tablets and washing powder. The WiFi was great for kids to stream films in the evening. Definitely recommended, I will be back. Thank you

The prices to gain access to the facilities were a little on the high side. I wouldn't have purchased them if I didn't have the kids but this is nothing to do with bear lodge.

Upstairs veranda

Only a smoke alarm in main bedroom at bottom none anywhere else.(danger) had to wash plates cutlery cups saucepan. Microwave dirty inside. Two bed wee stains sofa bed mattress disgusting filthy.

Location was excellent Welcome pack a lovely touch! Comfortable

Nothing

plenty of room, facilities, hot water,

hot tub has seen better days controls from one under water jet which keeps switching itself off

Excellent welcome pack. Well equipped, clean lodge in an excellent location. There was an issue with the cot but this was sorted very quickly and efficiently.

The only issue we had over the whole weekend was the price of the activities pass and the limited access to the activities. However, this is nothing to do with the owners of the lodge.

everything you needed

the hot tub only had half jets working

The space. I haven’t seen my brother for 23 years so we had him and his partner over, sat at dining table or on the deck was brilliant for time together with the family. Huge living space to entertain. Location - could see the lake, the aircraft and was a quieter part of site at night, with the exception being the weekend with new arrivals for parties for birthdays and hen nights, although wasn’t too bad that it became a nuisance. Aircraft noise most of the day due to being right next to RAF base - but you don’t book here if that’s not your thing! Personally My boys and hubby loved it! The price - just over £800 for the week was reasonable. Finishing touches - unexpected extras like coffee maker, George Forman grill, dishwasher tablets, washing up liquid, biccies and a nice bottle of Prosecco and so much more was lovely touch. The decor was lovely, modern and clean - the huge soft toys we were greeted with all over the furniture was a bit OTT which was commented on by our (admittedly well over age for teddy bears) sons, guests and from photos we posted as a bit odd and out of place for a higher end stay. They got moved over to the window for the stay as my son felt a bit anxious with them everywhere as he felt they were watching him. I can see how younger kids would appreciate them though but they are like marmite to some - you love them or you hate them. The hosts couldn’t have foreseen that my son would have issues with this although I know several parents with children with the same sensory problems with soft toys, never mind giant ones, so thought I would mention it in case not aware. My son was fine with them under a blanket in a corner for the duration of our stay. The ornaments and maybe some framed prints would have conveyed the theme of bear lodge better for us though.

Not much we didn’t like - the hosts have really thought of mostly everything to make the stay lovely and comfortable. A couple of suggestions though - replacement bin bags, we had to buy as nothing to put rubbish in after first empty of small kitchen bin to main skip. We had 4 empties on stay of week - so maybe larger bin? The knife block probably needs replacing as handles are cracked and broken and very blunt despite sharpener. The toilet roll holders need replacing - drove us all mad - rolls constantly fell off the holder and rolled away when trying to dispense. Mildly irritating having to hop off the toilet to retrieve them every time, but didn’t spoil the overall stay. The park itself charges for using facilities that you still had to pay for. As we don’t have young kids we were going to be using restaurant only but discovered we had to pay nearly £100 for passes just to be able to book a table there. I have stayed in many parks but have never had to pay an entry fee to set foot in their restaurant! Their loss really as 7 of us (our family and brothers family) went out every night for dinner and spent our money elsewhere. The on site chippy I believe was ok without a pass but decided not to even try in case we were pulled aside and asked for it. Lunch and breakfast for us 4, several times outwith the site. We went elsewhere for other entertainment facilities including pool (Woodhall spa). Highly recommend the fortesque pub and leagate inn and cafe in coningsby for eats as well as local Chinese. Site rules so this of course is outwith the control of the hosts. Confusing rules - wall poster says guests out by 10. Folder says guests out by 11. We went with 10pm as didn’t want to fall foul of the security guards on the gate.

we loved the size, how comfortable it was, well equipped the hot tub and the roof terrace. The aircraft we saw while staying was awesome.

The cost of the guest passes were not worth it.

lovely location with lake view

small things could elevate this property to excellent. new and updated bedding and cushions in lounge needed at not a great cost to the owners.

great layout, cosy and comfortable

bedding, needs upgrading from flannelette and no wine glasses

The lodge was so peaceful and full of everything we needed. The fact we could take our pets and the beds were so comfy. Also the cooking facilities were great.

Just a few little things, mainly on the cleaner to make it perfect. The shower needs a little attention. Limescale all round the shower head and the ensuite shower head leaks. Massive, and they were huge cobwebs on the roof that I removed. The bottom of the kitchen bin was filthy, which I cleaned out. Also, there was a leak in the downstairs toilet, but they are props not aware of. As it only leaks once flushed. Again, there are only minor things that the owner should be made aware of. Also, the jets didn't work in the hottub, so that wasn't great.

the wifi was on and off but that’s it

Excellent really enjoyed it

Amazing lodge! so clean and modern. equipped with absolutely everything we would need for our stay! will definitely be back 😀

there wasn’t anything to dislike.

spacious and clean with everything you need for a great family trip

nothing we loved everything

Like the lodge and facilities avaliable in the lodge nice quiet location . Well equipped kitchen comfortable living area lovely large veranda and views from roof terrace great for large families as there is lots of room great place to make new family memories and spend quality time together Bear lodge over all was a lovely lodge and the chocolates and wine was a lovely touch 😀

Unfortunately the double bed we found was very uncomfortable 😕 you could feel every spring and dip pillows very lumpy so me and my partner never got great sleeps and the same with the sofa bed in the longe you could feel the metal through the topper so daughter and her partner struggled aswell . A few jets in the hot tub didn't work or were missing shame really as overall its a lovely place

Good size and the welcome.pack was fab. Comfortable and welcoming. Imagine in the summer the roof terrace would be a great bonus.

The staircase outside was a bit dangerous without padding at head height and the lighting outside wasn't good enough in the dark to see it properly. Jets on the hot tub kept coming off and only one jet was working properly. Decking needs some grippers for when it freezes, very slippy in cold weather.

Fantastic stay great value for money ticked all the boxes and more

A lodge with the WOW factor.Spacious and comfortable. Full size single beds. Great hot tub. Lovely welcome pack, decorated for Halloween. Plenty of Teddy bears for photos.

Cigarette ends on roof terrace but otherwise very clean.

everything. it was perfect. the owners make every detail perfect and even decorated for Halloween for our kids

it’s was perfect… but the evening lights around the stairs to the roof were broken. it was too dark for us to sit on the roof

super amount of space. lovely furniture and finishing. nice welcome box. clean bedding, fresh towels, big tv, atmosphere fire

grill pans were dirty from previous customers meals. windows smeary and glass panels around hot tub dirty.

friendly staff, lovely views

lights were not working properly on roof terrace

The property was clean and bigger than we expected. Really enjoyed the hot tub. lovely unexpected welcome pack. Safe for the dog to walk around. All fenced off outside nice and secure.

loved everything!

clean, well equipped. hosts are extremely helpful. this is our second time at this lodge and it was still immaculate like the first trip. welcome package is a wonderful touch.

Superb lodge with everything you needed including fantastic welcome pack. Was fantastic sitting in the hot tub looking at the jets flying and stars. Upstairs terrace was an added bonus. Owners always on hand if any queries. Beds super comfy, couldn't get our kids up! Would definitely recommend!

£160 for 4 people passes was a bit pricey and think should be in price as only checked our passes once but appreciate site rules not owner. Also stairs to upstairs and all top deck full of cobwebs and bird faeces on first day, brush provided on decking but surely cleaners responsibility. Decking lights not working. Upstairs gutter lights not working as solar panel turned upside down, again not owners fault.
