Although we had a confirmed booking, the whole lodge was empty, locked and nobody there. We tried to reach them by phone several times but only got the receiver. As the i-SITE was already closed and nobody at the friendly pub could help us, we had a lot of trouble because of this behaviour. Really a mess.

Stayed at Breckenridge lodge for 4 nights in a family room as a base for skiing at Mt Hutt. The room was large and clean. The lodge is licenced and has it's own little bar, this was great at the end of a day skiing for relaxing in the lounge by the wood fire with a beer or wine before... More

Stayed at Breckenridge for the second time this year and couldn't fault it for clean, comfortable, value for money ski accommodation. The rooms are small but clean and adequate with a friendly lounge area complete with bar and cosy fire for apres activities. I liked having access to kitchen facilities so I could prepare my own breakfast, even though a... More

I'm very surprised by the previous two negative reviews having stayed no fewer than three times for my ski holiday at Breckenridge Lodge and have found the Hosts Cathy and Marek to have been so hospitable and professional at all times. The Lodge and Manor house along with the facilities are more than comfortable and very clean. We always have... More

Saving my pennies for NZ again. Taking the family this time from London and Breckenridge is on the cards yet again. Went last year for three days and had such a great time I changed my travel plans to go back a week later. The owners are really friendly and very helpful. My ride up the mountain fell through on...

Staying at Breckenridge was not a good experience! We booked for 5 nights, but left after two - and never received a refund on the three nights we didn't stay at the lodge. Our rubbish was not emptied in three days, we got one towel each which were never changed. Units have no sound insulation whatsoever! We could literally hear... More

The website for the manor is misleading--the owners live in the manor house and do not have a private entrance which makes for an awkward stay. We were woken up before 7am by yelling and ranting and slamming doors. We were reprimanded for using the laundry facilities of the house. Furthermore we were charged for the accommodation before we checked... More

Rooms were pretty standard- small ensuite and tv. Unfortunately there was a bit of a damp smell when you came in, but it wasn't too much of a problem. Continental breakfast was included which was great before a full day of skiing, the only problem was that it was often a rushed affair with transport picking up from the accomodation... More

Its a nice comfortable ski lodge style accomodation. The hosts were friendly and there is a nice lounge area with a pool table. There is also a spa and sauna. The room was small, but had a TV and an ensuite. But if you've stayed in other ski lodge accomodations then this is pretty much standard. The king bed was... More
