No stairgate asked about having one only to be told the last users broke it and there was no replacement available. Everything felt really sticky as though it had been sprayed with something. Cobwebs everywhere especially around the hot tub of which the surround was falling to bits. No curtain/blind in the bathroom to keep the light from the outside light out. Would never of paid what we did if we knew it was like it wasâ¦.the whole site is very tired.

The lodge smelt of stale cigarette or "Vape" smoke. The walls the shower and bath overflow had black hairs stuck to them. After unpacking and eating we settled down to watch the TV and I was immediately bitten on the ankle by a flea which I caught and drowned in a glass of water. Initially we put this down as a one off and went to bed . Over the following night I received 4 to 5 painful bites which came up as large red wheals, my son also complained of being bitten. We took pictures of the bites to evidence which have been sent to you. Throughout the following day we tried to contact maintenance on the two numbers provided without success. The next evening both my Husband and myself were bitten on several occasions with the guilty fleas caught and dispensed in the same glass of water as the first, again pictures were taken & have been sent to you. We again attempted to contact maintenance and the owner, and had to resort to contacting Sykes to sort out. The house had to be fumigated meaning we couldn't access the property for all of the 24/10/23. Even after fumigation we were still catching fleas so made the decision to cut our holiday short.
