Excellent location and great facilities and service.

A dishwasher would be really useful, and needs a new oven door.

Great chalet with plenty of beds and space. Heat pump kept us warm and toasty when we came off the slopes.

Very small issue with a blown light bulb. Otherwise perfect.

"The Barkers lodge is good value for a solo traveler or a group, open fire and good ambience."

7.0

The access to town and the convenient parking. The fireside area with couches and a pool table. Breakfast included. Hot showers and privacy the room was nice and quiet.

It would be good if there was food available, even just light snacks like a ploughman's platter, or some pate and crackers, that is not labor intensive. It would be good if there was somewhere to sit outside. I did not see anywhere.

"Loved warming up by the fire after a day skiing!"

9.0

Good location, very central close to the restaurants. Continental breakfast was included in the price and warming up by the fire after a day skiing was definitely a bonus! There is also a pool table and a bar, great for hanging out with friends. The bed was nice and comfy and the room was good enough for 4 of us (including 2 teenagers). Bill, the manager, was super friendly and made us feel super welcome, shout out to his hospitality!

I came to have a look at the breakfast options at the end of the cut out time and when the guy saw me, he didn’t seem so happy, didn’t even respond to my greetings - perhaps he just wanted to finish up quickly or had a bad sleep hehe! But Bill was great overall in his customer service, so it is all good!
