Value for money

Value for money for our type of stay. Spacious it being what it is, you can not get this in a B&B or hotel for that price. Very central on the island which was great for us.

We asked for a easy access caravan, didn't get one, tried to get it changed but they said that there was none available, couldn't check in before 4pm, they wouldn't even tell me which caravan I was getting which seemed awkward, we paid for a luxury caravan, it wasn't, the carpets and settee, 6 dinning chairs were dirty and stained, the sink work top was stained and had mould around the edges, outside the decking was filthy, we had to walk down some steps despite asking for a easy access, my wife struggles walking, they didn't seemed bothered,

A Chilled place to stay.

Beautiful grounds, the lake enlightens the site, especially when lit of an evening. Loved my Caravan, Clean, modern & had a very comfortable bed. Plenty of room. All the facilities you need on this site too. The staff were so friendly & helpful. This place is Central to all routes to visit the surrounding area’s. I will definitely stay at lakes Rookley again.

Visited in November and the site was very quiet and peaceful. The accommodation was warm and comfortable. The location was an ideal base for walking and cycling trips around the island. All the staff that we met were very friendly, cheerful and helpful.

Nice place to stay

The caravan was well presented and clean. The resort was an ideal place to base our holiday and was within easy reach of all the places of interest we wanted to visit. Facilities at the resort were good but if you want to use the swimming pool book your slot when you arrive as there is limited availability. The co-op store just across the road from the resort is extremely useful for those essentials you have either forgotten or need. I advise taking some oven gloves if you intend to cook as these are not supplied.

Had a great stay at the Lakes. Lakeside lodge was spacious, clean and comfortable. Lovely log burner, however, no logs or firelighters provided which isn’t a problem but would be good if you could buy these on site. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and was a great base to explore the island. Would definitely return.

Ideal for a short getaway. Clean, tidy and warm. Excellent grounds. Staff very welcoming. Only downside was the WiFi only being available in the main building and not in the accommodation itself.
