“The lodge was beautifully furnished and well equipped my only criticism would be ...”

The lodge was beautifully furnished and well equipped my only criticism would be the decking area, the decking itself, when wet was very slippery underfoot due to the verdigris, something that could be solved with a power wash and unfortunately we couldn’t really enjoy this space as we suspected there was a wasp nest underneath we did inform the owner so hopefully that will be sorted but we had a fantastic time here and would definitely return

“The property was let down by untidiness on the outside decking,cobwebs everywhere including around entrance door and windows.”

“Waiting for a code and on arrival is archaic & frustrating.”

Comms with Victoria is appalling. The unit is very clean & comfortable. The outside decking is awful, dirty & hasn’t been cleaned ever. The lounge ‘fire’ does not work in the electric point. The boiler needs repair it floods. The LHS patio door does not lock. Needs a kitchen bin so constant rubbish to be taken and no recycling. Getting your £50 deposit back takes 2 weeks of hassle .Lovely park. Would not recommend Woodland Bunker though to stay there

“The lodge was comfortable, clean and on a lovely location on the park.”

We had access to the swimming pool as stated in your advertising but it was chargeable which wasn’t made clear and was disappointing. There was no welcome pack in the lodge with no instructions for appliances, heating ect or information about the park. There is great need for blackout blinds in the bedrooms, luckily I took a blackout blind with us for our 3 year old, we were woken by the sun everyday and resorted to putting blankets over the curtains. A bin with a lid is needed for the kitchen and a couple of small chopping knives as there are none. A chopping board would have been nice also! The decking area, table and external windows are in desperate need of cleaning and there is a wasps nest above the patio doors. We would have really appreciated there been a gate preventing access to the steps down from the decking (like neighbouring lodges had) as it was a constant worry when our daughter was outside playing. We would return with an extra blackout blind!

“When we arrived we still hadn’t received a key code to get in.”

I had to ring yourself (no answer and it was only 430 )and the owner to get this . Although in the details of lodge we should have recieved this by 4 Then when we went to look over the facilities we were told we couldn’t enter without purchasing passes from reception at another cost on top of what we had spent on break because we were in a private owner lodge Very disappointed with this holiday and as of yesterday we still haven’t received our£50 bond back !!!! Not happy !

“Issues with the boiler and sky were resolved quickly.”

Lodge was comfortable and in a quiet part of a large park. Refundable good housekeeping deposit has failed to be refunded 3 weeks after the holiday despite promising 1 week. Little response to requests for it to be returned. A disappointing end to the holiday.

- Mrs Beard, April 2019
“Property not available on arrival day due to management fault.”

Put up in hotel for night. summer duvets not adequate for winter nights, no extra blankets.small problems no plugs in main bathroom. other than that the property was roomy and comfortable for two.

- Mr Woosey, March 2019
“This lodge was perfect for our week in Berwick.”

Beautiful location, set within Haggerston Castle in a lovely quiet part of the park. In easy reach of lots of brilliant attractions. And the lodge was immaculate even the books and magazines were new and clean looking! Very impressed and I would highly recommend this lodge.

- Mrs Smart, October 2018
“Although part of a much larger set-up than we realised we were very impressed with everything we saw.”

Woodland Bunker, being one of only eight of its kind, was quiet and peaceful. Set in a tree filled area, beautifully furnished and very comfortable, it was a lovely place in which to spend a week. Conveniently located close to the A1 getting to places of interest was easy. The whole park is very impressive & well kept. Woodland Bunker was well supplied with cooking pots & pans so we were surprised to find there was no dishcloth, tea towel or hand towel in the kitchen. (we had to buy some). I would suggest a pair of kitchen scissors & a small parting knife be added & perhaps egg cups. Apart from that we have nothing but praise for our accommodation.
