Sun View Lodge Reviews

Peter James

Amazing extras from the hosts. Very well equipped. Superb.

Entering the property upon arrival was easy using the key box. Inside we found that tea, coffee, cooking oil, salt & pepper as well as washing up liquidtabs were all provided in the wellequipped kitchen. This was a major plus point after arriving very early in the morning. The accommodation was generally very comfortable, with one major exception as reported by many previous guests, namely the double bed in the guest room with a deeply sagging mattress, unfortunately making it unusable by adults. It's a great shame this has not been addressed. The hot tub was clean and a big hit with our kids, the only negative being the cover, which has no grab handles and was thus difficult to move. The only other minor niggle was navigating the approach road and the division of the site into two halves with a fence inbetween why?, which are not shown clearly on online maps. All in all we'd recommend Sun View Lodge as a very nice place to stay!

Joanne

Loved the property. The only improvements I think could be made would be new mattress in upstairs double room and tweak the lock on the front door so that the key turns easier.

Comfortable accommodation and we felt the owners genuinely wanted us to enjoy the lodge. long term dust around some areas of the lodge along with long term spiders webs. Our personal preference was having a shower so effectively we all shared one bathroom. An overhead shower in the upstairs bathroom would be a bonus. A socket near mirrors in the bedrooms would be a bonus for hairdryers and tongs etc Positive feedback not negative comment

Victoria

Great place for a gathering with friends. The kitchen was very very well equipped. We had a super time.

WiFi wasnt working at all. Hot water wasnt on constantly and we had no hot water last day. Boiler switched off automatically. We shouldnt worry about stuff like that. Not very clear instructions of jacuzzi manual. Lid was very heavy and with all handles broken it was nightmare to put it back on. However amazing surrounding. Very nice vibe inside. We had teas coffees and some biscuits too. Enough space towels Very quiet around.

Natalie

Great place to stay, lovely and clean. Nice and quiet with everything you need to relax. Would love to stay again in fact com8 g back to Wakes August but unfortunately pricing for this property a little high for us.

Really nice lodge, very clean with everything provided that you would need. The hot tub is small for the number the lodge can sleep. 3 great pubs in walking distance.

Thank you for the Christmas decorations. They were such a thoughtful touch to a lovely place!

Incredible lodge with EVERYTHING you need already there! Whilst this is self catering the owners have gone above and beyond with whats provided. Things that we brought with us that we didnt need Kitchen Roll Toilet Roll Tin foil Cling film Salt Pepper Coffee Tea Sugar Plenty of towels To name just a few Thank you for a lovely stay we cant wait to come back!

Everything was as described in the listing of Sun View Lodge, on the website. One of the party of 6 would have benefitted from better indoor lighting but overall a good time was had by all. Would recommend the lodge to other prospective holiday makers.

Wonderfully well equipped lodge in the snowdonia national park access to beautiful places with a lovely wooden lodge and hot tub everything we needed for a relaxing stay. Thank you Elaine it was fab!

Our lodge was really clean and comfy with lots of little extras included that made it a real home from home. The site was beautifully kept and quiet. We would definitely recommend and would happily return.

Richard

Excellent stay with excellent facilities. Beautiful area. Hot tub was great after alot of walking during the day. The Lodge had everything we would want

Bianca

We were in love with the cabin! The owners were so accommodating and kind. It was all decorated for Christmas and the owners allowed us to decorate for our birthdays. It was so peaceful and chilled, just what we needed when life is so hectic in Dec. The hot tub was a great hit and we spent a lot of time in it. I have already recommended it to several people and will def be back in the summer.
