The property itself smelt damp upstairs, which may have been due to a long-standing leaking shower. The showers weren’t very clean and there weren’t enough towels to last a week. The house was full of stuff and would have benefitted from de-cluttering. There weren’t enough toilets/bathrooms for the size of the property and number of guests. Some of the furniture was old and a bit tatty, the kitchen table was unstable, although the rest of the kitchen was nice. The general house has a dated feel to it. The pool was lovely and warm and the outside seating was good. The front garden was lovely, the the back garden so wasn’t used as wasn’t that accessible. We had a lovely week, but were glad to move on to a new property after a week. We would potentially use Sykes cottages again, would return to the new forest but wouldn’t stay in the house again.

We had lovely walks with the dog to the beach, meeting the local horses running free. The Lodge was beautifully decorated and furnished, quite luxurious. The book with the do's and dont's was very helpful, as was the information on where places of interest and places to eat were. I would love to return to the Lodge. But have to say to whoever owns this property - we loved it Thank you for this amazing space to celebrate our Ruby anniversary.

Can't think of anything better than lying in the sunshine in the lovely garden with the relaxing scent of lavender followed by a swim in the pool (just the right temperature). Perfect for all four generations of our family. Love the entrance through the willow tree. Love the house, garden and location. Would definitely return. Thank you for the goodies.

The house is very comfortable with all your needs catered for. The kitchen is very well equipped with everything you could need for self catering. The beds all have comfy mattresses and warm duvets. Plenty of towels are also provided. The gardens are delightful and very well cared for and plenty of chairs, tables and sun lounges are provided. Even an outdoor fire pit is provided. The pool (although we didn't use it ) is a great size and I'm sure would be lovely in the summer. The open forest is just a short walk away and a traditional pub within a few hundred metres. We had a wonderful time here, plenty of space so we weren't on top of each other . Would thoroughly recommend The Lodge for a holiday.

Thank you for sharing your home with us, it was a delight. We certainly hope to return next year.

The pool area amazing, we ate outside everyday by the pool and used the pool everyday. As we were a large group we cooked everyday instead of going out, the kitchen was well stocked with good cookware which is rare in a rented property. Can not recommend enough - would love to come back one day.

We loved the house and the pool and the owners have laid it out with entertainment and luxury in mind. The pool was warm enough to use every day of a warm but not hot week. The kitchen is well equipped and has absolutely everything you need, and usually in multiples. The only thing we could have done with would have been a tumble dryer as we had wet towels to dry from swimming when it was not windy or warm enough to dry them on the line. \ The location is good but it is a busy road but when the gates are closed you don't really notice. We felt very lucky to stay there.

The house was beautifully clean and tastefully decorated for Christmas when we arrived - there was even a basket of goodies in the kitchen to welcome us! The house had everything we needed - well-equipped, large kitchen, spacious lounge and all the bedrooms are a good size. The main bathroom upstairs has a gorgeous free-standing bath and excellent separate shower. What made the property stand out for me was the location and secluded grounds - you really felt away from it all and it felt very homely and cosy straight away. The beds were exceedingly comfortable. I would definitely recommend the property for those looking for a peaceful, rural getaway with a luxurious feel.

Well located for both the forest and beach with plenty of shops and restaurants etc. Our daughter just loved the toys, especially the dolls house. She felt right 'at home'. Comfy beds and a cozy log fire every night. I think we need to visit in the summer too! Ps many thanks for the welcome pack.

Mr & Mrs S,
“Fabulous house.”

We had the most enjoyable week. It is comfortable, friendly and has so many touches. Thank you so much for the lovely welcome pack.

The house was superb, well appointed, beautifully decorated stylish and comfortable. The location was ideal as near to the coast and the forest. Set back off the road made it very safe and private and plenty of parking for the 3 cars. Lymington was lovely with the Saturday market - very Christmassy - and good eateries for lunch, then on Sunday went to the Beach House for a Christmas menu dinner. Service good but not exceptional. Fab fab weekend !!!

The Lodge is superbly decorated, clean, fresh and cosy with enough space to suit our group of 7. On arrival we were greeted with a beautiful hamper, full of goodies - the heating was also put on making it cosy when we stepped in the door. It is the perfect place to relax, you can sit by the log fire or spend time in the stunning kitchen which is well equipped. The bedrooms are all comfortable with quality bed linen so you can be sure for a great night's sleep. I highly recommend the Lodge at Bashley! I'm sure it's also the perfect destination in the summer with a large heated pool. Thank you to the owners and Hideaways for making our stay peaceful and relaxing.

Great location with lovely pool. The kitchen was a dream with a wonderful cooker and it is obviously a family home with children. The whole lodge was beautifully appointed and fitted with the best. Would have appreciated a summer duvet in the main bedroom as it was very hot whilst we were there. Close to lots of amenities and the owners have left lots of recommendations in the information booklet.
