点评：Travelling as husband, wife and son (8 years old) in October 2026. We had one of the lodges, and our experience was mixed. The lodge was fine (in terms of basics) and comfortable, but absolutely not “luxury”, as described. The kitchen / living / dining area is spacious and well-designed. Plenty of cupboard space, lots of crockery and silverware, and even pint glasses (hooray!). The twin bedroom was lovely, but the “master” bedroom left quite a bit to be desired. (Small) double bed? Check. Wardrobe? Check. Chest of drawers? Sort of. Space to swing a cat (nope! I’m a big guy and I literally couldn’t access the side of the bed away from the door.). Bedside tables? Absolutely not. Sockets for phone chargers, etc.? Yes, one, by the door, but no others. The washer dryer was broken (no drying function as the thermostat (?) was broken, according to the error code) so we had no facility to dry towels apart from the over-radiator rack provided. However, as the radiators were electric heaters, you REALLY shouldn’t put washing over them (for the risk of causing a catastrophic fire), so really we were reduced to hanging towels over doors, the backs of chairs, etc. The balcony outside the front door was carpeted in the sort of material you use for doormats, but in all the corners and around all the edges it was black with mould (and quite obviously mould, from the smell). The site itself is OK, if a little sparse and barren. That’s perhaps just the landscape up here, but it feels very much like it was only recently cleared of trees (hastily too, from the number of stumps, root balls and tipped over trunks scattered around) and the lodges thrown up in a hurry. The shop, reception and pool are lovely, as seems the restaurant (yet to experience that!!). The nature is obviously nice and it’s quiet. The biggest bug for us - and this is kind of our fault, too - is that you should avoid this area unless you’re REALLY into cycling, hiking, walking or water sports, because apart from those things, there really is nothing (I repeat - NOTHING) to do. We were reduced to drinking coffee in cardboard cups from a vending machine at a table in the corner of a bicycle rental shop on DAY 1 of our holiday, because there really is nothing to do. We stopped into the only shop in a 20 mile radius at 3:30pm one afternoon to buy some beer and tampons, neither of which they had, and the shopkeeper told us we were lucky as she was just about to close…until April. In terms of service and opening hours, it’s like going back in time to 1945. In terms of “things to do”, unless you’re willing to make a 2 hour round trip every day (at least) to the amazing Hadrian’s Wall sites, you’re really confined to barracks, as they say. Bring books, as much wine as you think you can handle (x 2) and board games / jigsaws, because you’re here for the long haul. You do not, repeat DO NOT want to come unprepared for this holiday!!!!

翻译：我们一家三口——丈夫、妻子以及8岁的儿子——于2026年10月前往旅行。我们入住了一间小木屋，整体体验可谓喜忧参半。小木屋本身（就基本设施而言）还算不错且舒适，但绝对称不上是所描述的那种“豪华”住所。厨房/客厅/餐厅区域宽敞且设计合理。储物柜空间充足，餐具和刀叉也一应俱全，甚至还有品啤酒用的大杯（太棒了！）。双人床房间挺不错的，但所谓的“主卧”就差强人意了：一张（尺寸偏小的）双人床？确实有。衣柜？有。五斗柜？算有吧。空间够大到能转个身吗？（根本不够！我身材高大，连床上离门最远的那一侧都够不着。）床头柜？一个都没有。手机充电器插座呢？有一个，就在门边，除此之外再无其他。洗衣机/烘干机坏了（根据错误代码显示，是因为恒温器出问题了，所以没有烘干功能），因此除了暖气片旁的晾衣架外，我们根本没有其他能晾干毛巾的地方。不过……由于那些散热器其实就是电暖器，所以绝对不该把湿衣物搭在上面（否则有引发严重火灾的风险）。因此，我们只能把毛巾挂在门后或椅背上之类的地方。前门外的阳台上铺着一种类似门垫用的地毯，但在各个角落和边缘处都长满了黑色的霉菌（从气味就能明显判断出来是霉菌）。整个场地本身还算不错，只是略显空旷荒凉罢了。也许这里的地貌本来就是这样，但看起来这里似乎最近才把树木清除干净（从四处散落的树桩、根球以及倒下的树干来看，清除工作进行得相当仓促），那些木屋也是匆匆建起来的。商店、接待处和泳池都很不错，餐厅似乎也不错（不过我们还没去体验过！！）。这里的自然环境显然很优美，也很安静。对我们来说最大的问题——这其实也算是我们的疏忽吧。总之，除非你真的酷爱骑自行车、远足、散步或水上运动，否则最好避开这个地区，因为除了这些活动之外，真的什么可做的都没有了（我重申——什么都没有）。假期的第一天，我们只能坐在一家自行车租赁店角落里的桌子旁，喝着自动售货机里卖出来的纸杯装咖啡，因为真的无事可做。有一天下午3点半，我们才在方圆20英里内唯一的商店里买到了啤酒和卫生棉条。他们什么都没有，而店主告诉我们很幸运，因为她正准备关门……直到四月。就服务和营业时间而言，这里简直就像是回到了1945年。至于“可做的活动”，除非你愿意每天至少花两个小时往返于那些令人惊叹的哈德良长城遗址，否则就只能待在营房里了。带上书籍、你认为自己能喝下的全部葡萄酒（最好带两倍的量），还有桌游或拼图吧，因为你得在这里待上很长一段时间呢。你们绝对、绝对不要毫无准备就去过这个节日！！！
