"Already done a review. But it's a great Lodge and we've booked to come again"

"Some parts needed fixing. Staff informed.Hottub was very good condition"

"Very spacious Caravan, well laid out, large fridge frezer, microwave etc flat screen TV, (shame there is one in the master bedroom, overall very impressed."

"Perfect relaxing stay in a wonderful lodge with hot tub.We didn't want to come home!!!"

"Lovely lodge very well equipped only problem was freezer defrosted all my food . Beds very comfortable"

"Disappointed."

"Nice clean lodge."

"Clean place, furniture in good condition and the whole caravan was neat"

"The lodge itself has such potential but its let down by the park letting it get so grubby and in a sorry state plus its in a bad location, dishwasher was broken half the week, was told it would be fixed that day, they repeated that for 4 days until we contacted hoseasons ourselves, (read some reviews and its been broken since June) we visited November, it literally had one flat tray to cook with and one cooking utensil a ladle, contacted reception and they brought over a casserole dish, so we ended up going out and buying baking trays and utensils, its also in the worst location right by the front gates on the owners side of the park so you have cars blasting music from 5am onwards waking you up as they leave to go to work Ive stayed in a lot of lodges over the years and its by far the most unkept and run down"

"Good holiday."

"Great place been a couple of times clean and tidy hot tub was great nice beach loads of space in the caravan will visit again only couple small things fire not working in front room and no signal on the tv in spare room"

"The dining chairs were damaged and should be replaced before allowing any more guests stay , the caravan needed cleaning properly, only 2 knives, only 2 small glasses , should have been an oven glove provided,"

"Some basic maintenance was required (I mentioned a few things while there) and those were fixed. With having 2 dogs with me, I like a vacuum or long handled brush so I can keep the floor clean - we only had a dustpan/brush! My dog found a child's sock on the floor in the bedroom - not sure when the beds were last moved from the wall."

"Although caravan was nice it was a bit dirty IE floors The door handles need a bit of maintenance But other than that it was a lovely caravan"

"Excellent stay yet again in Clover caravan.Clean, warm."

"caravans are abit dated, cleanliness could be improved etc stains on carpets, and sofas."

"Caravan was okay but was not well maintained (door handles wobbly, drawer in kitchen hanging off) It was also not clean. Dust and bits of wrappers in the corners. Clearly had dogs in previously as there was a bad wet dog odour evident on our arrival.One of the kids bed mattresses was awful too, very springy and hurt my daughters back."

"Great lodge! It has everything. Its spacious and very nice. Hot tub is just fabulous."

"Furniture was stained or well worn. Curtains very thin. Dust in the bedrooms, especially around the beds, living area carpets were dirty, not hoovered and microwave had rust on and in it."

"Amazing caravan plenty of space the hot tub was amazing. The cleanliness of the van was also incredible. The fact it had a dishwasher washing machine tea towels hand towels bath towels was a nice touch. And the beds.. wow my kids havent slept so well ever and the double bed for myself and my wife was amazin"

"We stayed in a lodge with accessibility access which was superb. Beds are very comfy, living area big and cosy. Kitchen had all you need for catering. Pool and entertainment close and very good. Food is top notch and the location to the beach is excellent. We will be staying again."

"We stayed in the Oakwood lodge. It was beautiful, the lodge was clean, the beds were very comfy. Having an enclosed garden was great for the dog. Hot tub was lovely to enjoy in the evenings. Staff were friendly and helpful responded quickly when we had a query about the heating."

"Clean and tidy - few things missing in caravan and couldn't get oven to work ???? we were lucky that there was parking right next to our caravan for unloading everything - not always like that being older it can be a pain - overall good stay away"

"Not value for money"

"Its like the size of the site has outgrown the facilities available. Entertainment full 20 mins before starting, more families turing up only to also be disappointed by the lack of tables and chairs and space. Very long queues for swimming in the morning, to be told its full after waiting for half an hour. The playarea is for toddlers only, very tiny everything, no good for 8 year old. Filthy windows in caravan with bird droppings everywhere on the outside of the van. Mattress feel every spring, cheap or old, poor quality. Caravans too close together, and lots of noise can be heard from other peoples caravan. Such a shame as its in a great area."

"2 glasses in 6 berth accommodation"

"A little more attention to detail with cleaning but overall very comfortable, everything as it should."

"When we arrived at the caravan all appeared good, clean and tidy and this was to be expected as we had one of the most expensive models. On the Monday evening when cooking the extractor fan was not working properly and the smoke alarm was constantly blaring. This went on until we finished cooking and the shrill sound was more than an irritation. On further inspection we found that we had limited cooking utensils, few cutlery, no egg flip, broken tin opener, few glasses, one oven tray and no grill pan. This was reported the next morning when reception was open.Overnight one of the single beds which my son (17) was sleeping in broke but fortunately he was not injured. When unpacking in the bedroom it was noticed that a drawer was also broken. When using the dishwasher we discovered that it was not working.Other issues included a faulty toilet seat, a broken shower hose, a broken dinning chair and no towel rail in the master bedroom ensuite.The hot tub was prepared promptly and we were informed that it would be serviced every other day this did not happen throughout our stay.On our second day two maintenance staff came to repair the faults that we had reported the previous day and we updated them with the additional problems. They were able to fix the bed, toilet seat and shower hose and replaced the smoke alarm. Despite dismantling the extractor fan this could not be repaired without ordering a part neither could the dishwasher. For the full length of our stay we had no dishwasher or extractor fan. They eventually replaced the grill pan after explaining that these were not provided by the oven supplier.All the facilities on Tuesday were closed with the exception of the swimming pool. This pool was too shallow to safety allow adults to swim and the jacuzzi was out of order.In the games room there were a numbers of faulty machines and the pool table shown clearly on the website was non existent which was a disappointment to our family.The surrounding area of our caravan was filthy littered with cigarette buts, paper and even a poppy which must have been there for some considerable time.Talacre appeared to be near to a colony of seagulls which continually made noise all day and from early morning. They even attacked some of the residents on site.After paying for a ferry and choosing one of the most expensive caravans we were devastated by the standard of the caravan and the five star campsite that was advertised. We feel that the site and the accommodation was very run down and not remotely like advertised. Most of our holiday was a combination of frustration and annoyance and we would not recommend anyone to stay at Talacre.Please ensure that you forward a copy of our review to Hoseasons."

"A beautiful location with lots to do."

"Absolutely brilliant holiday again... Lovely site and great facilities"

"My family love it here, beautiful park, beautiful location, beautiful beach. Very close by to surrounding places. The food and drink is quite over priced but all in all we had a fantastic time and will continue to stay here."
