The lodge is very isolated and peaceful which was perfect for us, the wood fired hot tub was great to relax in, especailly with the woodland surrounding. The owner was very helpful and sensitive to our sitution having a reactive dog and was very respectful. We would 100% return to the Woodland Lodge for a peaceful, restful holiday.

Amazing facilities and plenty of things to do around it. The location is quite secluded but within a 5 minute drive from anything you need. Struggled to get the fire started for the hot tub but one message to the host and he was straight there sorting it for us. Would highly recommend and would definitely return in the future

The owner was helpful when messaged. It took 5 hours and a lot of attention to get the spa going but once it had reached temperature it maintained it very well. It is very private. A hook on the back of the bathroom door would be nice to put your towels and also a little shed to store the cushions from the outdoor sofas. It was very very peaceful, relaxing and private and we would definitely like to return. It was very dog friendly and there was a good sized portion of the garden that was securely fenced for the dogs and so you could relax completely knowing they were safe. Negatives which didn't really impact our stay are The kitchen tap does not turn into position and may get broken trying to do this at some point. The underfloor heating covers a massive area and only works on certain floor tiles.
