General cleanliness has gone downhill in the past few weeks. Shampoo/shower gel was empty. Staff super friendly as always, just feels like it's not what as good as it used to be.

The Swiss Lodge was perfect for our stay. A country getaway was what we were looking forward to and got exactly this. The rooms were comfortable and had individual temperature controls. The kitchen and living room was spacious and ideal for our group. The bathrooms were clean and well maintained. I will definitely visit here again

We had a very enjoyable stay here. The bed was very comfortable (6ft) and the staff were always very helpful. The breakfast was buffet style and perfectly acceptable. We didn't take up dinner as being inside the middle of the building maybe not the best eating environment. The club house was another option but wasn't advertised as such. The surrounding area is beautiful and there are certainly lovely walks together with other eating options close by in Exmouth, Topsham and Buddly salterton etc. Would certainly stay here again.

Very thin walls so you hear everything your neighbours are doing from talking to flushing the toilet. We spent one night here, although enjoyed the use of their health club, won’t be rushing back for the bedrooms.

Great stay as always, with friendly staff happy to go above and beyond during this stressful holiday season. Check in is prompt and helpful, breakfast is generous and plentiful, and management was all "hands on deck", present and caring with guests and staff alike. It's by far my favourite place in the area, and I keep coming once a month and am never disappointed. A haven of peace and quiet with outstanding staff, stay after stay.

Stayed in the lodge and although it needed paint touchups in certain areas (dog scratches on the doors etc) it would have been acceptable except that it was dirty. Grime in the shower/bath, cobwebs above the light fittings, drink spills on walls and grime on the radiators. Oven door was full of grease as well as the window handle in the kitchen. Window smears and food crumbs in the cutlery drawers…. Needs a thorough deep clean all over.

Superb hotel
We had a really enjoyable stay at the Woodbury Park hotel. We have stayed there before and always find the staff friendly and helpful. I enjoyed swimming in their pool and my husband used the golf driving range. Our standard room was comfortable and a good size. In the bathroom there is a bath with a shower over it. As I enjoy a Bath and my husband likes a shower, it suited both of us. I look forward to our next stay there.

Airline issue so no-show!
I never got to stay at the hotel in the end as my colleague who was also staying got caught up in the airline issues on Wednesday of this week, so he couldn't get back to the country in time. I tried to cancel on the day and postpone to a later date but the hotel said we couldn't as it was against policies at this late stage, normally I would have understood that, but these were special circumstances?? Therefore we never stayed, it's cost me a lot of money, and I probably won't look to stay there again!
