Haddon Cottage - Darwin Lake Holiday Village

We arrived at the time agreed, got the keys and entered the house, to find it hadn’t been cleaned from the previous people. Beds not make rubbish everywhere.

We were moved in to a different cottage, the mattress wasn’t great, and cleanliness was not good.

Spacious rooms. Ground floor with walk In shower for elderly mother. Good amou t of kitchen equipment a d crockery

Wobbly Dming room chairs. Some unusable. Bit of an ant problem in downstairs bedroom

Fresh sheets and very comfortable

Nothing

Lovely location, enjoyed the stay.

Wifi wasn't great and mobile signal wasn't great.

holiday village was really beautiful, the cottage was clean and spacious.

it was actually the worst day. the hottest one and no fan was provided, no one was taking call, i sent messages but they responded after check out , we literally couldn’t sleep whole night . so if you are thinking to go in summers, think twice

Location

Very disturbing stay. Left 24 hours earlier than we actually paid for. I don't know where to start from. Every single piece of furniture assembled had nuts and bolts loose. Nothing was assembled properly. For example Dining table and chairs when moving around the whole structure would move and wobble dining table was sticky to a level like its never been deep cleaned. You put your arm on table whilst dining and would stick for a moment. Oven trays were not cleaned or washed. Left them as they were and I bought some new ones from sainsbury. There was no hot water in the kitchen sink. The most disturbing thing was beds. Not at all comfortable the master bedroom had a bed bigger than the mattress. One of us had to sleep downstairs on sofa bed because of it. The sofa bed was more comfortable than any other bed but even when we opened that it was very dusty. The thing that was even disturbing was the floor boards upstairs. Every single floor board was squeaky and loud whilst walking. If some one in bedroom has woken up in middle of night and gone to use the toilet the person in the room would definitely get woken up and the person downstairs as well as it was more louder and noisy downstairs. Make up cleaning pads were left in one of the bedrooms from previous guest. The beds were not assembled properly the mattresses were well over used and abused. You could feel the springs. The master bedroom beds nuts and bolts were loose so even if you were turning sides they would make squeaky noises. I paid a lot of money for this cottage to have a wonderful time with the family and instead was stressed and disappointed by the quality of the cottage.
