Very enjoyable ##### Marilyn W.

It has everything you need including games, tennis and table tennis equipment, 2 travel cots, lots of kids cutlery etc. all this made for an easy stay. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 6/10 Okay #### lesley a. 7 Jun 2025 #### Overall I would not rebook and would not recommend this property We enjoyed staying at Goose nest but unfortunately, as we were in a large party there were other houses booked. Goose nest fell very short in comparison to the other properties. In summary, for same price, Firecrest (no 75) offered better customer service, space, cleanliness, personalisation and value for money. Our family members booked house 73 clearwater which was far far superior. The comfort level in Goose nest was poor. It had a dark and stark hallway, was cluttered in the downstairs laundry area and there was very little space in the downstairs ensuite bedroom which meant that navigating between the beds and the wardrobes had to be done sideways. On the plus side the kitchen was well equipped - however the lack of any welcome pack was disappointing. The benches were cluttered. The furniture on the balconies was very cheap and uncomfortable and offered no place to relax. Overall I would not rebook and would not recommend this property ##### lesley a. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good 22 Feb 2025 #### Mostly very good The house was lovely, accommodation really worked for us. Oldies at the top- no noise, and kids and parents at the bottom. The house was very well equipped but needs a new tin opener. Sofas rather too firm to be comfy but beds and bathrooms all good and everything working.the bean bags were great, also the toys and games. Kids also appreciated Nintendo. The weather was appalling so we were very glad of the heated outdoor pool and used it a lot. The indoor pool was booked up until too late for our young kids . My husband appreciated the gym. Considering the weather, we had a good weekend and would definitely consider another stay in the future as the location is central so accessible to various members of our group. We love the modern architecture and the beautiful views of the lake, atmospheric with swirling mist during our stay, but must be gorgeous on a summer's day . ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [5 Star Hotels in Selby](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-Selby-Hotels.s50-0-d6054661.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [El Capistrano Sur](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nerja-Hotels-El-Capistrano-Sur.h2689763.Hotel-Information) > > [Britannia Cottage](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Berwick-Upon-Tweed-Hotels-Britannia-Cottage.h68737282.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Scone](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Scone-Hotels.d182817.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Karma St. Martin's](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Isles-Of-Scilly-Hotels-Karma-St-Martins-Hotel.h9248220.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Sharjah](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sharjah-Hotels.d3152.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hostels Glasgow](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Glasgow-Hostels.d1334-aaHostels.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Alkyoni Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Naxos-Hotels-Alkyoni-Beach-Hotel.h3701157.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Kettering](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kettering-Hotels.d4668.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Ettington Park Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stratford-Upon-Avon-Hotels-Ettington-Park-Hotel.h559617.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Palladium White Sand Resort & Spa All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kantenah-Hotels-Grand-Palladium-White-Sand-Resort-Spa-All-Inclusive.h1449832.Hotel-Information) > > [The Caledonian Torbay Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Torquay-Hotels-The-Torbay-Hotel.h57917509.Hotel-Information) > > [Moon Palace Cancun - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cancun-Hotels-Moon-Palace-Cancun-All-Inclusive.h428588.Hotel-Information) > > [The Stable Courtyard Bedrooms at Leeds Castle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Maidstone-Hotels-The-Stable-Courtyard-Bedrooms-At-Leeds-Castle.h12846141.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Acta Piramides](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Madrid-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Madrid-Piramides.h562121.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from London (LHR) to Trzebownisko (RZE)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/rze/london-to-rzeszow) > > [Flights from London (LHR) to Timbuktu (TOM)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/tom/london-to-timbuktu) > > [Flights from London (LHR) to Meckenbeuren (FDH)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/fdh/london-to-friedrichshafen) > > [Flights from Derby (EMA) to La Motte-Servolex (CMF)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/ema/cmf/east-midlands-to-chambery) > > [Flights from New York (JFK) to Austin (AUS)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/jfk/aus/new-york-to-austin) > > [Flights from Lahore (LHE) to Dubai (DXB)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhe/dxb/lahore-to-dubai) > > [Flights from Gatwick (LGW) to Belfast (BHD)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lgw/bhd/london-to-belfast) ### Cars > [Van Car Hire in Portsmouth](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Van-Car-Rentals-In-Portsmouth.d553248634335196573-tVan.Car-Rental-Guide-Class) ### Packages > [Cranborne Chase and the West Wiltshire Downs](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cranborne-Chase-And-The-West-Wiltshire-Downs-England.d553248635997928308.Attraction) > > [Shooting Range Prague](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Shooting-Range-Prague-Vinohrady.d553248621532516480.Attraction) ### Holiday Rentals > [St Aubin Holiday Rentals](https://www.expedia.co.uk/St-Aubin-Holiday-Rentals.d6046621.Travel-Guide-HolidayRentals) ### General > [Visit Puerto Escondido](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Puerto-Escondido.dx2918)
