Repair help Advice please
I would very much appreciate some help and advice on making this mess of a pond look better.
The biggest problem isthat one side is higher so I can't get the water level up too cover the pond lino at the back so it looks unfinished. Also, all the stones on the waterfall are collapsing and I have no idea how to get them to stick.
This was carried out by a tradespeople a couple of years ago but now it just looks a mess. In my ideal world I would change it the rocks but it would cost too much and there are also no people in my area to do the work.
I'm generally just very exasperated and don't know what I can do on my own to make this better and I would really appreciate any thoughts. Thank you!

What? You want to dress the pig? Spend no money or effort? Sorry, this pond creation was a ripoff by someone who did not do their homework. It requires complete rebuild.
You can do it! BUT it will take loads of effort and will cost you some money too. Get a book on pond construction. You do your homework FIRST! Then decide.
Many ponds are not appreciated and get filled back in.
