Blagdon Farm

I have stayed in a self-catering cottage that was stated to have five stars. It said it had a licensed bar games room and Lake Side walks all wheelchair accessible and a hydrotherapy pool…

But that was not quite true.
The cottage was ok but just ok; the owners were unfriendly the first time we met them. Also we went for a meal in the bar but they said, “we ran out of food” and said “if you wait an hour we will serve you”. So Lydia and I went back to the cottage to eat.

I went to the hydrotherapy pool, which was nice but small it had a step in the middle just before the deep end.

Also they had an over head hoist that was out of order all week because they could not be bothered to get a new battery.

The Games room was pathetic. They had two antique game machines that you had to pay for! One was not working, then they had a battered table tennis table and a few board games and a lot of cobwebs- they did not clean very much.
The only disabled toilet the lock was broken and they had put the light switch out of reach of any one in a wheelchair (half way up the wall.)

The “accessible lake side walk” was very dangerous because they had no barrier round the lake what so ever and they had no pathway. It was all on grass, not very stable for scooters, wheelchairs or people with walking problems.
The name of this place was Blagdon Farm oh yes Farm there were meant to be animals but I never saw any.
