"Overall it was basic but did the job as the weather was so good we didnt stay in, bonus was the hot tub, no out door seating so had to purchase a couple of chairs from one of local supermarkets which did the job."

"Enjoyed my stay all basic facilities provided. Dont understand why a dog is charged for though when there is no difference in the facilities if a dog is present or not. Also no public waste bins apart from bin in lodge so had to take my dogs waste bags with me."

"This is our 2nd time coming here, we love it. We will be back again this year. We recommended it to our friends, they are going in february"

"2nd year in a row going in November relaxing in peaceful break"

"Great for our small group of 4 adults."

"We stayed at Ballard pod 4 and had a great time. It would be nice if there was a a dustpan and brush and some coat/towel hooks. Overall the accommodation and the hot tub is nice and spacious for 4 people. We enjoyed our stay."

"Our accommodation was changed just before we arrived so we cant comment on what we had booked but to be honest, if this was an upgrade I'm glad this occurred."

"Can't comment on this accommodation as we were moved prior to arrival to another one."

"Great stay, hot tub amazing and pod had everything we needed, would definitely come back again ??????"

"Lovely stay. Pod is lovely was clean plenty of space for a pod and the hot tub was brilliant. The warden and the owner both popped when we arrived late evening and were both pleasant and helpful. Would definitely stop again!"

"Great stay,just wasn't enough plates and cutlery for a family of 6.And maybe a connection to WiFi for the kids ????"

"Positives: The location is beautiful with lovely views across to the Isle of Arran. The hot tub is fantastic and the real luxury point of staying here. The heating is very good and hot water boiler functions well. TV had good channel selection. Decor simple but attractive. Very clean.Negatives: We paid a premium for 2 nights over the Christmas period but did not feel that the price tag matched the accommodation. It is sparsely furnished with zero shelves or cabinets in the bathroom or within the shower to place any toiletries and only a single loo roll provided. A very small bath mat was left for us. There is one small mirror in the bathroom but no others anywhere else. The large bedroom has a built in over-bed wardrobe system but no shelves for charging cameras etc. The small bedroom has a small single bed and no other furniture/shelves meaning a glass of water for overnight has to go on the floor. The living room end has a comfortable sofa bed and coffee table but nothing more. There are no lamps or soft lighting options so its all or nothing. There was no tin opener or corkscrew in the kitchen, only one sharp kitchen knife for prepping and very little in the way of cutlery. Its the first place Ive ever stayed where there was no welcome basket with even basics like straws of coffee/teabag or pots of UHT milk and there was zero anything within cupboards. Considering the time of year it was a good job we had some tinned food in the car left over from camping or we would have had nothing in the night of arrival. Overall: If you are considering staying make sure you take EVERYTHING you think you might want/need including a corkscrew and tin opener! It mentions no towels are provided but if you pretty much apply that to everything else then there will be no surprises. Views are great and its a good area for exploring."

"Would definitely stay again, peaceful perfect location stunning views"

"Was a disaster from start to finish. They mixed up the booking so we were a bed short but recieved £50 compensation for it. One of the rooms didn't have a blind. No bedding for pull out couch. Light switch for toilet could only be turned on by my 5 year old son as it was jammed between a kitchen cupboard and the wall. Jacuzzi was all dirty and slimey. Place was covered in flies. No tin opener. States on the website you can ask for a high chair amd a pop up cot but was told they never had any. Never seen a park ranger the whole time."

"Great location, friendly staff checked us in, very well equipped lodge. Will definitely be back"

"A great lodge with plenty of room & plenty to do in surrounding areas. Only negative comment nothing on site and you need a car to get to surrounding areas. A very good holiday would recommend it."

"Had and awesome 40th birthdys thanks to these Guys .very warm welcome great relaxing atmosphere and cant fault one thing .they where checking the hot tub daily and if we neded anything they where very helpfull 100%recomended great palcr to stay very relaxing"

"We will definitely come back here again....we had the best time! Thank you again! A++++"

"Lodge was lovely & absolutely spotless. Hot tub was fantastic. I would definitely go back."

"Excellent accommodation, done to a really high standard. Hot tub was immaculate. Beds were so comfortable. Bigger than I expected especially the kitchen/Living area. I would say this wee place is a hidden gem."

"Superb lodge and hot tub. We had a fantastic time! Only thing I would suggest is maybe have a broom or hoover available as we were there for 3 days and the floor became a little messy."

"staff very helpful great if you are looking for a quite break"

"We had a fantastic break away at arran hills, the lodge was great and the addition of a hot tub was fantastic. Slight negative was there was no table or seating area on the decking. We enjoyed our stay that much we've booked again. Can't wait to go back."

"My initial impression of the site was that it was a small site with some lovely lodges on it. When we got into our lodge I thought it was nice and bright inside with plenty of windows. Everything was new and fairly clean which was nice. There's a few things I would say the lodge was missing like a mat at the entrance and some decking furniture so you could sit outside without been in the hot tub. With the lodge been so small and compact I felt like the bed was too small so my feet were always dangling off the end and the shower been very tight to move in but with that been said that's all just because the lodge is so compact. Also the lack of privacy when you are in the hot tub isn't the greatest. When we were there we had a couple of issues but with no site office been there you only have a number to ring or text. I got a response saying someone would be down at the site in the morning and would have this all sorted. I personally got the feeling like it was a burden on them that they had to come to the site because when site came down in the morning they brought what looked to be their full family with kids as well. I think with this been a new site a few things are still yet to be complete."

"My partner and I have just returned from a lovely four nights away at this cottage. Lovely helpful owners which do not intrude and are there if you need them. Large fenced off garden ideal for our dog. Fully equipped cottage with everything you need. We used the bbq one of evenings. Brilliant hot tub! We would definitely return and have already recommended to friends. Thankyou for a lovely stay. "

"Another fantastic stay at Goddards Mead. Fantastic cottage in every way. We will be back need I say more."

"Just returned from a lovely weeks stay at Goddards Mead. The cottage is very well equipped with everything you could possibly need. The hosts are very warm and welcoming and despite being on a working farm it felt like a little tranquil haven."

"Little Gem - Beautiful Cottage with everything you need, you dont need to bring anything. I overloaded the car not realising how well equiped the whole cottage is. Welcome pack has all information you need to know about the cottage and menus which was very well thought out. Thankyou for the little extras for our dogs and us. Owners, Sharon and Robert very quick to respond if you need to ask anything. K9's loved it - enclosed garden a bonus. Hot tub amazing. Thanks for the lovely break. "

"Very nice cottage. Ideal for a quiet break if you don't mind aeroplanes (at night mostly) as its quite near to Stanstead airport. Hot tub is lovely!"

"Out lodge was spotless & staff friendly & helpful"

"Excellent lodge and loved how quiet the area was. My only advice is to take your own outdoor chairs. Unlike the photos there is no place to sit outside and the dining chairs were not comfy."

"Couldn't recommend a stay here more. Quiet apart from my children and they had a ball, they loved the hot tub. They played in our little bit of garden and we were completely left alone. Staff were very helpful and always at hand when needed. Cabin was modern clean and a peaceful private good value break. Definitely recommend and definitely go back. 10 out of 10 from this family."

"Nice relaxing break. Perfect location hidden away and nice to come back to when we've been out round Scotland to Glasgow and Edinburgh"

"Absaloutly amazing thank you we will be back"

"Fantastic 4 days away . It's says pod but I would call it a micro lodge , the pictures are spot on with what you get . It has only just opened so all is brand new and a couple of lodges were just being finished. Hot tub was excellent and for short break had plenty of room . Good oven and full size fridge freezer and bathroom bigger than static caravan . Had a great time on the beaches nearby plenty to go to and lots of superstores . Thank you very much Arran hills hope to see you again"

"Had an excellent stay. Lodge was very clean and well equipped. Highly recommend."

"We had a fantastic time -a perfect place to relax!"
