The Wilderness Retreat in Dunston Reviews

Unfortunately for the money you pay, the standard of care gone into the cleaning service is very poor. Also a few points that were picked up.. Chipped crockery, tiles coming off the wall, jacuzzi baths that don’t work, stains on the sofa pillow’s and under the sofa has not been touched. Previous visitors food left in the freezer and the kitchen side had to be cleaned before being able to make use of the kitchen.

We had a lovely time - was just really for a ladies carch up so we didnt venture out and therefore can't comment on the area. The Wilderness Retreat was immaculately clean and the welcome basket was a lovely touch. Enjoyed the hot tub and the only thing missing was possibly some sun loungers. Had a lovely lunch at the Sugar Beat Eating House. Would thoroughly recommend The Wilderness Retreat.
