Bonners Lodge

Μου άρεσε: The location to the A68 was perfect. The site was peaceful with friendly welcoming owners. Good dishwashing area with detergent provided. Plenty bins around the site. Dog facilities were good, however, not sure it surrounded by different animals in fields. Decent sized pitches.

Δεν μου άρεσε: Not sure about the dog exercise area in the middle of animals (goats, lamas and horse etc) who were all fenced in their own areas but not sure that some bread of dogs would cope with the sensory overload. The shower itself was good, plenty hot water and no push button, however, I'm not a fan of shower curtains and this one continually stuck throughout showering. Relatively small site and would be easy enough to make the pitches fully serviced.

Μου άρεσε: Everything Facilitates, views, peaceful, lovely owner. One of the best small sites we have ever stayed on, flat pitch, with own seating area, heated shower block and an indoor area for washing up, which had everything needed to cook if you have few facilities yourself. Farm animals, all around. Brilliant.

Δεν μου άρεσε: Absolutely nothing.

Από τον διαχειριστή: thank you so much for your lovely comments we are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay. With relation to having free range chickens which we would love to have - this is not an option that we can take being a dog friendly site and having dogs ourselves it would be too difficult to keep the chickens safe.

Μου άρεσε: Good facilities, kitchen, games room, washing up, lots for children, animals etc. friendly owner and good amount of space. Beautiful wood carvings around. Excellent shower, excellent.

Δεν μου άρεσε: One big bin full of everything, no recycling. Only one toilet, only one shower. But more may not be required. Bit pricey for the quality.

Από τον διαχειριστή: Hi i am sorry that you were disappointed with your stay. We do have recycling bins but at the date of your stay the bin men missed us and the surrounding farms from the weekly collection. We pay a substantial amount for our bins to be collected so i was very upset with the council who fobbed us off for over a week before coming to empty our bins. I am not sure how you did not see the blue recycle bins as they were at the entrance to our site at the bin collection point waiting to be emptied (you had to drive past them to get on the site). We have a lot to offer our guests for such a small site, having a games room with free pool table, table tennis, table football TV DVD books toys and games. A kitchen with full facilities - cooker, microwave, kettle, toaster, fridge and a freezer. A lovely play park for the children and a meet and greet with all of our animals all at no extra charge. Our pitches are all level hardstanding with their own picnic table 4 being fully serviced so i dispute your comment about us being too expensive as we offer a lot for the price and the size of our site. The amount of showers and toilet facilities that we have per council guidelines are for up to 15 pitches and we only have 10 pitches. Other than campervans, Motor homes and caravans all have their own on board bathrooms so not all guests use our facilities.

Μου άρεσε: Compact but spacious safe site with good views of site and better views of surroundings. Pitch had large picnic table and chairs supplied as well as a fire pit both included with wood to burn at back of pitch. The animal interactions dialy are great for the kids and adults. Small play area but plenty to do. Large climbing frame, swing ball, seesaw and swing aswell as a football goal. Small bridge leads into the woods with a hut with sheep for company. Secure dog area to let dogs off for a run and plenty toys in there for them. Games room was a life saver on a rainy misty day. We have a 2 YO and a baby so was a great space to feed the baby while our toddler played. It was equipped with many toys including bouncer for a baby, dolls house, lego, tracks, dolls & buggy - so much. It also has a pool table, table tennis for older kids. The kitchen area had a sink with cleaning products and a fridge, kettle and toaster. You could easy spend the day in this room with the kids as they have so much to do. It also had A TV with DVDs avaliable & a book case and games avaliable. Toilets were clean, always had toiletries avaliable. The people who owned the Lodge were friendly, welcoming and clearly cared about their business and their customers thoughts

Δεν μου άρεσε: High altitude so therefore you get the wind. Bring a coat.
