Guests say
The Lodge in CIRENCESTER is a well-loved cottage, praised for its comfort, cleanliness, and excellent location. Guests appreciate the thoughtful touches, well-equipped facilities, and the property's charm. While there are a few minor criticisms, the overall sentiment is overwhelmingly positive, with many looking forward to returning.
Cleanliness
Most guests found The Lodge to be very clean, with comfortable furnishings and well-maintained spaces. However, one review mentioned issues with cleanliness, including dog hair and ants, which slightly lowers the score.
Location
The location is highly praised for its quiet village setting, proximity to local walks, and easy access to the Cotswolds. The presence of a nearby pub is frequently mentioned as a positive aspect.
Comfort
Guests consistently mention the comfort of the cottage, highlighting the cosy atmosphere, warm beds, and homely touches. A few comments about a lumpy sofa and low beds suggest room for improvement.
Facilities
The Lodge is commended for being well-equipped and having attention to detail. Criticisms include outdated kitchen utensils, lack of smart TV functionality, and a slippery patio, which suggest some facilities could be updated.
Thoughtfulness
The thoughtfulness of the hosts is evident, with mentions of welcome gifts and extra touches that make stays enjoyable. While gifts are appreciated, they are a kind gesture and not a guaranteed amenity.
