What our customers say about their holidays

Michael - Verified booking

For relaxation the place is on point as very quiet.

Some of what Iâm about to complain about may sound petty but when you review places you have to put warts and all into it. When arriving you approach a barrier which you have to get out the car and press the ring doorbell for someone to open it. Staff seemed friendly enough to check in then You have to pay a deposit for breakages etc Â£75 and sign sheet, then given a folder of rules and what to do etc . The park has minimum lighting so when itâs dark itâs dark, you need a torch to walk your dog literally, we had rain (as we do) and areas around the park did get flooded so you definitely need some good footwear. Lodge was rented as luxury which was good enough to live in but had a feel of an old peoples home. Cleanliness was not up to scratch as dust on skirting boards, central heating dial and windows hadnât been cleaned. Hot tub - on settling into the lodge we had a visit from maintenance to show us how to use the tub which was a good touch if you hadnât used one before, tub was adequate although the step up to it was not fixed down and made of wooden decking so was really slippy. Didnât see a maintenance guy at our Hot tub from Friday to Friday to check levels etc, Iâve seen this at other places so would have expected to see someone. WiFi is very limited, itâs free to connect if you sit outside reception but when you move you are on your own data which again can be intermittent. Tv in lodge living room was adequate, smart tv. Tv in bedroom wasnât worth turning on as pixelated and buffered a lot so didnât use it. We noticed you could connect to the lodge WiFi but didnât have a password which was strange if you were actually staying in there. The Croft pub on site was a lovely place to eat and drink with the prices suprisingly reasonable, although it wasnât open everyday and after new year it was closed for 2 weeks for staff holidays which is fair enough but this was not bought to our attention so had to go off site if wanted to eat out or go for a drink. There is no shop on site even just for essentials, you had to go off site which was about 5 min drive. Itâs the second place Iâve been to in 6months that doesnât have an onsite shop which I think is very strange..is this the new thing? There are no dog waste bins around the park only in an exercise area which is not gated off. Recycling or waste bins were no where to be seen around where we stayed so had to leave rubbish in waste bin around by hot tub ( apparently there are some but a long walk from lodges where we stayed. Upon leaving they require you to basically put everything back where it belongs and clean as you arrived this included taking all covers off beds and pillowcases and put in bags provided ( Iâve never had to do this when paying a good amount of money to stay somewhere), leave clean yes we always do as thatâs in my nature but to strip beds and make sure all is correct no. When checking out it was a frosty morning and the drive to reception was treacherous and hadnât been gritted at all, when handed keys there wasnât much interaction with usual how was your stay, hope you enjoyed it but nothingâ¦ All in all it felt like a place that hadnât finished areas off and decor in lodges are basic for luxury. Recycling looked a big issue as no waste bins in sight. As mentioned at beginning people this is only our feedback as we look for these issues to hopefully give the owners a view from outside and you as possible holiday makers a good insight into holidaying.

My partner and I stay in different lodges around the UK four or five times a year and never usually go back to the same location.

In this instance however, we saw that Callow Lodge 2 (which we had booked through Sykes Cottages in September 2016) was available. As we had enjoyed that lodge and the location facilities, we booked it again. Really looking forward to the spacious lodge and good sized hot tub, we checked in. We new where the lodge was situated on site and proceeded to its location to find another family in occupation. It was then we realised we had been given the keys to Callow 22, not Callow 2. This lodge, although having all the same internal amenities, was smaller in floor space, had a smaller hot tub and was situated on the main road to the rest of the lodges in that area (Unlike Callow 2, which was the last lodge on a road to the maintance yard and therefore rarely used). When I complained to reception, I was told that all the other lodges were full, therefore reluctantly, had to accept this lodge. Do not get me wrong, the lodge was as good as Callow 2, but smaller than we were expecting. Within two days we were asked to call into reception where the staff admitted it had been an administrative error on their part. As compensation they offered us a Â£50 cash back and a Â£50 voucher for the next time we stop with them (As stated above, we never usually go back to the same place so will not be using that). The site is adult only, has lodge and tourer facilities, has a good onsite restaurant and the grounds are kept immaculate.There are also good fishing ponds within the site that hold large fish. The staff were always very friendly and obliging. I would have no hesitation in recommending this location to others,

Ive waited a few weeks before leaving a review as I wanted to reflect for a while.

The park itself was beautifully kept, a credit to the grounds keeping team! It was also very quiet on an evening. I don't agree with description of the lodge as "outstanding" it maybe was several years ago. The pictures on sykes website advertising this lodge are old, it look's more luxurious in pictures, as to reality. I actually thought I'd walked in the wrong lodge, and had to go back outside and check the number on the fence to see if I had the right lodge, the sofas and dining table are not the same as the pictures! Instead there is two old leather sofas, and the dining table and chairs are totally different, and really old and tired imediately making it feel less luxurious. There is a lot of missing information on sykes website about this property and the rules etc. I'd advise checking with park before booking. I was most annoyed that I was told that if I wanted any friends or family to visit me during my stay it was Â£10 per visitor. I booked a lodge for 3 people and there was only me and the dog! They allow visitors free if there spending money in the bar/restaurant no problem! I've stayed in a lot of these lodges over the years and for value for money Its disappointing. I wouldn't stay in this lodge again nor would I use sykes again. There is a lot of road noise like the other reviews state, it didn't bother me though. The hot tub was nice to use but even that was old and tired. To top it off sykes refused my top cashback claim even though I've followed the procedures ...shame on you sykes !!!

This was the first time we had stopped at Beaconsfield Farm Holiday Park.

On arrival first impressions were good. Well maintained areas around the Lodges and Caravans. Two good sized fishing lakes and the caravans segregated from the lodges. Booking in was quick, easy and we were directed to our lodge in no time at all. Being able to park next to your lodge is a bonus as in other lodge locations we have stayed at, you left the car at the entrance. Callow Lodge 2 was clean, spacious and comfortable with two double bedrooms. The hot tub was secluded and private. I had booked a two bedroom lodge with the intention of my Brother and Sister in Law staying for two nights on their way down from Scotland to London. However, I was told this was not allowed unless I paid an additional fee. It was also pointed out that, although their were two double bedrooms, Sykes cottages advertised it for three people, when clearly the lodge was set up for four. Another aspect of the booking that was not pointed out by Sykes Cottages, were the number of rules you had to adhere too. No vehicles with commercial markings allowed on site. Check in had to be no later than 7pm. Any guests had to be booked in at Â£10 per person per visit. Only allowed to visit between 10am and 9pm. Visitors cars were to be left at the entrance. No use of the Hot Tub after dusk. Although these rules did not detract from an enjoyable holiday, I feel that Sykes Cottages should have notified us prior to arrival.

Brilliant break away!

The only thing I can critize is the lack of signs directing you into the park from the village, there's one sign on a lamppost but it's easy to miss and the postcode we received did not take us to the park. However, after a quick look on Google we managed to find out way there. The park is clean, tidy and well maintained. The lodge was immaculate and the hot tub was already turned on and up heat when we arrived. The staff were really friendly and helpful and advised us on some great stuff to do and see while we stayed. The restaurant is small but after reading some rave reviews it didn't not disappoint the Sunday lunch is beautiful and very reasonably priced. I even managed to squeeze a good day's fishing in on a well stocked lake with plenty of fish caught. This park would not suite all audiences, it is adults only and would not suite certain parties such as hen/stag weekends as there is not a lot of night life in the village and the park bar is attached to the restaurant. However, for a nice relaxing break to escape and just relax this is the best Park to go!
