The property was not clean. The kitchen was laid out well but there was a severe shortage of basic kitchen tools such as a spatula, serving bowls etc The TV was continually losing connection. Overall the lodge was very tired. All the staff at the Grange were excellent.

The lodge is in beautiful grounds and its position makes it very accessible to the North Devon coastline. We fully enjoyed the hot tub 3 evenings out of 4 despite the jets only working in the front of the tub. The kitchen and bathrooms are in excellent condition and provide all you could need in the main. A few small improvements, as suggested to oRead morewners, would make such a difference. Parking beside lodge is fine if next lodge is not occupied - else it would be tight. Hide

The location was great and the hotels food is fantastic, the lodge could do with some care the flooring is coming up in places, the wardrobe doors kept coming off the runners. Some shelves in the bathroom to put your products on.

The lodges are fantastic will fully opening glass doors most are set around lakes with established planting which provides a degree of privacy, the layout is great with onsuite and connected bathrooms. The hot tun is a great bonus along with onsite restaurant which is available for breakfast lunch and dinner and totally dog friendly we took 3 dogs Read morewhich was not a problem. The decking is enclosed along with a gate for the dogs so they could wander in and out. Would book again. Hide

Kentisbury Grange site is a lovely, relaxing spot for a break in Devon. I have to say that I was disappointed to be allocated a different lodge to the one on my booking confirmation. The lodge had damaged patio doors opening onto the veranda and the lakeside shrubbery blocked views over the pond as it was extremely overgrown. I can only assume thatRead more because we were quite late arriving the guests who should have stayed in lodge 16 asked to be moved and were subsequently moved to 18 instead. Hide

What a lovely place, all the staff so friendly, the food from the restaurant was incredible, not the cheapest but well worth a try.The location is inan excellent position 6-7 mins from the beech but when your sitting in your hot tub overlooking the lake you could be thousand miles from anywhere. Truly an amazing place.
