Cosy Lodge on Farm with Donkeys Parking

Location was nice.

Unfortunately no privacy due to missing parts or the blinds , definitely not to the "high standers " that we were told it was , and had been passed that morning unable to stay due to this . Could but plenty more photos however unfortunately unable to upload them .

The accommodation was very close to the university, and it was ideal for visiting our niece. It was spacious and has all the home comforts. We arrived quite late on the Friday evening and the heating was on and it was lovely and warm. We were close to shops, takeaways and the centre.

This is a little bit of a silly thing...but there was a great recycling area, but nowhere to dispose of our dog poo bags. We left them outside on top of the bins, but felt bad about that! The bed was very soft, which some people may like...it was too soft for us. 😊

The donkeys

Very unclean

We loved the location and how peaceful it was. Loved seeing the horses and donkeys.

Didn't like the fact there were no staff to welcome us there. Would have made it a better experience to be welcomed. Also the tea cups badly scratched and stained which was very off putting. Most of the lodge was clean but the radiators, mirror and photo frames we covered in dust. There were also cobwebs inside, The drainage was very poor in shower and sink. Outside windows were covered in spiderwebs and the covers on chairs outside had bird poop on and were dirty so we couldn't sit outside. There was also a horrible strong smell in the bedroom with the shower on suite. Definitely needs improving.

The location is excellent, comfy beds to ensure restful nights sleep after a hard day at work! This is the second time staying here (we stayed here for 3 nights). On leaving i did forget my machinery key and i was already commuting to my work and the host went above and beyond by meeting me half way with a key which i so desperately needed! We will most definitely be staying here again (if available) on our next work trip! Thankyou again - PD GROUNDWORKS & RESIN LTD.

Beautiful location. Very peaceful and quiet. The accommodation was comfortable and had everything we needed. Loved the donkeys who roamed freely outside.

Nothing

Lovely and quiet and comfortable! Clean inside, didn't smell like dogs at all despite being pet friendly. Good facilities.

It was a little bit difficult to find the entrance to the property from the road, some clearer instructions would have been nice (although the host was very helpful when called!)

Good accommodation for a weekend away-(first break away as a family since 2016) near to Chester / 20 mins from Zoo. Good location for visiting Cheshire/Liverpool or North Wales. Didn't meet hosts during our stay- key box to gain access to lodge Accommodation has everything you need for a short break away. 2 double beds- 1 bedroom has ensuite & a separate bathroom as well. There is also sofa bed. Open plan kitchen/living area. Kitchen with gas hob/fan oven. Washing machine. Smart TV & lovely table/chairs. On a farm- lovely to meet the donkey's & dogs/cats & see horses. Quiet despite being close to Chester. Massive industrial estate near by if you need anything-tesco/asda/Aldi/otger retailers 5 min drive away. Great for short break.

First it was hard to find as postcode given takes you to Fir tree lodges. Property is on Point Hill Farm. Had to ask Fir tree how to find it. Would be good if hosts give more detail in how to find it. Could have been cleaner- mugs in cupboard were used/ still had drink at bottom. Other items in kitchen also not cleaned(we made sure everything was clean when we left). There is welcome tea/coffee in cupboard but empty sugar pot(again left it filled). My daughter had spilt something on her dress so I was going to use washing machine but but it was dirty/full of hair/animal fur. This was the only thing that let the lodge down for us.
