• "Had a lovely week."

  Weather was relatively kind but didn't manage to sit outside, shame as lots of seating . Views too. Great location for many places of interest within driving distance. We were aware of the trains but didn't bother us! Would definitely return. The owner Michael was very pleasant.

• "Lovely property."

  Clean, comfortable and spacious. The position if the property makes it really peaceful. It is next to a railway line but honestly the passing trains were no problem at all. The owner was very pleasant and welcoming. Would definitely stay there again.

• "This property is wonderful, has everything you need for a great holiday, in the ideal location for visiting other towns and villages, this was our second time in this property, the owner calls to explain everything to you, then leaves you to it, weather was perfect the night before we were leaving the owner called to say have a good journey home, which we think is great, so all in all we had a great time."

• "What a wonderful time we had at WestView, this well equipt and very comfortable holiday home was exceptional, having only one holiday home on site it was very peaceful, the one exception was the railway line but one became used to that very quickly."

  Its an idea base for getting out and about, we got to Wells,Cheddar Gorge, Bath, Ilchester and a few trips into Weston Super Mare, and we made the mistake of visiting Taunton and Bridgewater which used to be stunning but are now hovels for beggars. All in all I would recommend this site, Thank You

• "We had a lovely stay at Westview."

  The lodge is very comfortable and we loved the position with good walks from the door. Everything we needed was provided and we enjoyed sitting out on the terrace. There are lots of lovely places to visit within easy driving distance as well as being able to walk to the beach.

• "The accommodation itself was superb with comfortable stylish furnishings and fittings."

  The beds were comfortable and the kitchen utensils and crockery were more than sufficient. Unfortunately the noise and vibration from the adjacent railway line became so unbearable that we had to leave after 4 days. The building is less than 40m from the railway line and there were 60 diesel trains a day travelling at 100mph starting from 5.20am until 11.10pm. The note in the property summary saying that the Lodge is beside the trainline connecting Bridgewater and Bristol and associated noise may be heard is a gross understatement and is not an adequate notice as to the level of noise and vibration. We had hoped that we would have an enjoyable and relaxing break in pleasant surroundings; it was just the opposite!

• "Overall it is a well equipped lodge but could do with a new Mrs Mop."

  The cooker top was full of grease (had to clean before use) and the cleaner hadn't bothered to clean the cobwebs under the dressing table or from the ceilings or under the furniture. Opened the door under the TV and it was full of dust didn't even touch it. Furniture is really uncomfortable to sit on. Cups in the cupboard were brown inside and had to bleach before using. The bed linen was clean as was the bathroom. The Trains didn't bother us at all. Word to the owner. You have a very nice lodge which fails on the cleanliness not up to the usual standard from Sykes Cottages. Wont be returning to this Lodge

  persons going on holiday should enjoy and relax and leave misery at home . do they not have spiders on mars! this is the same persons that left the lodge so dirty that it took three cleaners ( combined ) five hours to clean that always include the cooker . i am happy to have complaints that i can act and improve upon but i never act on trivial . i was pleased to see that they will not return .

• "Like most visitors to this property we were aware of the trains running past, and after a day or two, you didnt really notice them (unless they are were the very fast trains for which the property shook)."

  Fantastic central location for Weston-Super-Mare and the rest of Somerset. Owners left us too it, and popped in halfway through to make sure everything was ok.

• "Extremely happy with the accommodation, much better than we had anticipated."

  Trains, though close, didn't bother us at all. Owner helpful with explanations, then left us to our own devices for the week, but said just to pop round and ask him if we had any problems. Very much enjoyed our stay.

• "Excellent property with plenty of space and great facilities."

  WiFi coverage was excellent and also mobile phone coverage (which can be quite patchy in Somerset). Lots of space to store all our things - a dressing room in the main bedroom and large wardrobe in the second bedroom and a utility room for our golf clubs and outdoor gear. The kitchen was well appointed with a decent size fridge and freezer. Unfortunately we didn't have the best weather, but the views from the veranda were great and if the weather had been a bit better we would have spent our early evenings sitting outside watching the sun go down. The details do mention the trains, but these are fairly infrequent and apart from a long goods train that we only heard once, they are not very noisy and go past very quickly. Location is good - an easy walk down to the coast at Uphill and lots of places easily accessible.

  You can see him walking around the property quite often than you would like.

  A lovely, friendly host, for whom nothing was too much trouble, and yes, a noisy mainline railway within yards, but that is easy to get used to , and actually, for us, became part of the charm. Another wonderful holiday - thank you!

• "West View is light and spacious inside and out."

  It is not over-looked, having a rural aspect. The beach at Uphill, with wonderful sunsets over the Severn estuary is nearby. The rail line is very close and the noise from frequent trains would not suit everyone. We would be happy to return, probably out of the main season.

• "This is a wonderful base for a holiday and a really comfortable, well equipped, and beautifully clean and practical apartment."

  There is a train line within a few yards, but we quickly got used to this, and actually enjoyed watching the trains, which could only slightly be heard when windows and doors were closed at night. A fabulous place and a really friendly, funny, generous owner. We will definitely be going there again.

• "The accommodation was perfect."

  The lodge is well maintained and beautiful inside. The only downside is its position, being so close to a mainline railway line. We were aware of it before we went and thought it would have little impact. We were wrong. The trains started at 0445 in the morning, some of them high speed and very noisy, and were still running after 2200 at night. The lodge is so close you can count the passengers. Although we loved the lodge, we would not return due to the impact the trains have on our peace and quiet. It is such a shame.

• "Amazing place."

  Exactly what we wanted for a chilled out, luxurious break before school started again. Very exciting to see and hear trains regularly. Ultra Clean place, up to date, Wonderful. Near enough to shops to pop out for things if needed. Beautifully quiet area to just stay at ‘home’ too. Jacuzzi bath amazing. Owner is a wonderful chap, friendly and helpful. 10/10. We will go back.

  Good facilities in a modern lodge with modern kitchen, laundry room and bbq. Set quite close to a train line but this didn’t really bother us and the trains were quiet overnight. Would definitely recommend this place to stay and would happily return if staying in this location again.

• "Exactly what was specified!"

  Really easy to find, we made sure we planned and had a good look on Google maps before hand! very well maintained and cleaned. In a good location for travelling around the different sites! we walked to the pubs up the road which took about half hour to the furthest one which was fine by us. Next to the railway track but the noise did not bother us and didnt wake us up at all, we slept very well each night! The lodge had everything we needed and we really enjoyed our stay there and was lovely place to relax in the evenings! We had contact with the owner and his daughter and they were both very pleasant and welcoming people! We will definitely be rebooking!

• "The directions to the property need to be urgently altered."

  We spent an additional 30 minutes and several miles looking for a left turn onto Toll Road when it is a right turn! In addition the road name is completely obscured by vegetation. The owner was aware of both facts and said other visitors had the same problem but had not rectified either.

  It was very well laid out and had everything (and more) that you could possibly need.The whole house was beautifully decorated, beds were very comfortable, bedding and towels were super. The owner was very pleasant and made us feel immediately comfortable. My only complaint was that we weren’t able to stay longer due to work commitments. We would definitely stay here again.

  It is secluded and quiet, until the trains go past (but this just added to the fun). First job every day was to open the folding doors onto the decking. Didn't need the underfloor heating as the weather was great. Reliable fast broadband too. Well appointed and well maintained. Worth every penny.
