  Comfortable enjoyable stay, would have benefited from having a guide on how to use items such as the fire and digital box (none of the TV apps worked) and would have appreciated knowing in advance that there wasn’t any hand soap toilet roll or washing up liquid but didn’t impact us greatly as site shop was open

• "Just returned from a lovely stay in Coast View Lodge."

  A very comfortable and spacious chalet static with a great view. We found it very clean and comfortable with only minor niggles such as the plugs not fitting in the basins. We ate a couple of times in the Park Dean facilities which was fine with plenty of activities for kids. Would imagine in height of school holidays that it gets very busy and noisy. Nice short walk down to the beach which although not great for swimming, was lovely to take a chair down and sit in the evening sun. Site was quiet enough mid week to spot a red squirrel and a hare!

• "Whilst the lodge was spacious and well equipped , there was no WiFi as advertised , (a necessity for me)."

  I emailed owner for a password for his WiFi but received no answer or password . The Television was unusable as pixalating all the time. We are elderly and don’t go out to clubs etc do the absence of tv and WiFi completely spoilt our holiday our holiday. We won’t be returning to that lodge. The blind on one of the windows was broken and was not fixed at all do consequently fell on my head.

• "It proved very difficult to locate Coast View Lodge from the directions given."

  It was not obvious that that Coast View is an area of several lodges within Thorness Bay Holiday Park and number 22 is one of these. Unfortunately this is not clear from the signs within the park which is a maze of one and two way lanes. The park has a map on its website which does not include the lodge areas. We eventually found a local resident who guided to the correct area. They had a detailed map which they had obtained from Reception. When we found number 22 there was no name or number on the lodge but it was next to number 21 Coast View and the key safe worked so we knew we had arrived at the right place. We then had more problems once we were inside. An alarm sounded in the living room ceiling which we could not stop. Since there there were on instruction for any of the devices in the lodge we drove back to to the Reception building and they sent one of the site security team to sort it out. There was some sort of device control at the top of one of the cupboards. We then found that no electricity was working but we could not find a master switch. Eventually we discovered a freestanding box on the ground behind the lodge with a small on/off switch inside. Again, no instructions in the lodge. In previous visits to Sykes lodges there have been bin liners in place. There were none here so we had to be careful with our rubbish until we had been to the shop. There was a problem with the door handle mechanism in the main bathroom. The door could not be opened from the inside so someone had to be outside the bathroom to let the occupant out! We also had difficulty using the microwave as the labels on the switches were not clear. Again, no instructions. Small hand towels would have been useful. In spite of all this, the lodge is very comfortable with an amazing view of The Solent. Continuous activity on the water from small craft to huge container ships and cruise liners coming in and out of Southampton Water.
